Try food you wouldn't normally order. And have fun seeing the city from a locals perspective. - What a fab way to see and learn more about the city. Get some inside view into how Prague runs and it's history from someone who has loved it. And try foods that you wouldn't normally order. Trust your guide. She will make sure you have a fab time!!
We have done a couple.of other European city food tours and this was as fantastic as the others. Michaela made sure we got to visit restaurants and cafes that we wouldn't normally get to.
And to try foods and drinks that were unusual and enjoyable.
Highly recommended to everyone visiting Prague with a spare couple of evening hours

Better than expected! - Had a fantastic time on this tour! Learned so much about Prague, ate a LOT of local foods and drinks. Everything was delicious and our tour guide Jan was so friendly and provided a personal touch to the tour. Felt more like you were being shown around by a friend which I loved. Thank you for a fantastic experience.

delicious, personalized, and thoughtful with post-tour recommendations and recipes - Recently had the pleasure of experiencing the gastronomic tour with Prague City Adventures, guided by Misha. Due to it not being the peak season, no one else signed up, turning our tour into a private one for the two of us. Everything was delicious and had a fantastic atmosphere. Misha is an outstanding guide – easygoing, pleasant to converse with, and incredibly knowledgeable. She shared numerous stories and provided valuable recommendations for other places to explore during our ongoing journey. What's even more delightful is that after the tour, she sent us a map with recommended places and even a few recipes to try at home. A truly thoughtful touch! We thoroughly enjoyed the exclusive experience and highly recommend it!

Great local food experience! - A really great evening hosted by Nikola - took us to some places we would not have the confidence to go where the locals eat local food. Some really good food, interesting flavours and great beer - well we are in Prague! Would thoroughly recommend both the tour and Nikola - it was like going out with a friend in a new city - knowledgeable, funny and engaging.

Awesome pub tour - Great tour. Guide was hilarious and offered funny yet informative bits of history as we walked.
I enjoyed the different beers and their stories. At each bar she kept us entertained and the group was really fun.
The tour is not super long, only a couple hours, so you can easily fit it into your day. It’s a no brainer to book this if you only have a day or two because you see and learn so much quickly.
