Itinerary
We'll meet in the center for your convenience but don't worry, we won't stay here for long! Your guide will wait for you in front of the main entrance to the Municipal House, an Art-Nouveau building that houses the famous Smetana Concert Hall as well as a number of wonderful restaurants and wine bars.
Our first stop, a brand new restaurant with a modern take on Czech cuisine.
This square is also a park and it's the perfect place for locals to hang out in the summer. We'll check out the great view and than head for food - that's why we are here in the first place!
You thought Les Invalides, or Invalidovna as we call it in Czech was just in Paris, right? Let us show you this architectural gem and how a certain gentleman's idea came to life here. Oh and have we mentioned we're going to it nearby? But you were expecting as much by now, weren't you?
Karlin Baracks are a true hidden gem in this district, that's no cliché at all in this. We simply cannot avoid stopping here and showing this stunning courtyard with an amazing cafe/pub (they serve both delish coffee and amazing beer here) right in the center. Let's try it out, shall we?

Great experience. Had lots of fun. Food was great. Nikola was an excellent guide. The food was so good we went back for dinner the next night. Thank you for an excellent experience.
We're glad to hear about your amazing time on the tour! Nikola will be so happy to know you found her to be an excellent guide. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to see you again soon! Warm regards, Selen & Prague City Adventures Team
What an absolutely spectacular time we had with Will! One of our biggest highlights from Prague :) Will had done his research on us beforehand and had thoughtfully curated a list of restaurants and hidden gems keeping our preferences and likes in mind, which we further customized after meeting us. He effortlessly led the tour, moving from one spot to another while keeping it informational yet super fun! The Vin Chaud and sausages at the locals Christmas Market, local crafter beer and the ice cream with Prague-specific flavors were our favorites. Also, Will was so easy to connect with and made us feel like a friend from the get-go. Thank you for the wonderful tour and your generosity throughout =) Loved his recommendations for Prague (and Strasbourg) too!
Dear Bhavi, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this — what a joy to read. It sounds like the kind of Prague evening that just clicks: the right mix of hidden corners, great bites, and plenty of laughs along the way. :) Will will be very happy to hear how much you appreciated the thought he put into shaping the route around your tastes — and then tweaking it even further once you met. The favourites you mentioned are spot on too: mulled wine & sausages at a local market, craft beer, and those Prague-specific ice cream flavours that somehow surprise everyone. Most of all, it’s lovely to hear you felt comfortable with him right away — like you were out with a friend, not “on a tour.” With warm regards, Korn & Prague City Adventures Team
awesome tour - excellent food across 4 locations, with a quick slivovice stop between - totally for those interested in more unique experience
Thanks so much for the great review! We're really glad you enjoyed the tour—and the food! Hitting four tasty spots (plus that quick slivovice stop!) makes for a fun mix, especially for anyone looking for something a bit more unique. It was a pleasure having you with us! Korn & Prague City Adventures Team
You will go to parts of Prague the locals go to. Excellent variety of food. Nicola was a wonderful guide.
We greatly appreciate your wonderful review, Sandra! It's great to know that you explored local gems and enjoyed the diverse offerings of modern Czech cuisine with Nicola. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your Prague adventure! Kind regards, Sila & Prague City Adventures Team
Six years ago my wife and I did the Old Town Food Tour with Prague City Adventures. Johanka was our guide and we had a fantastic time with great food. When we booked a return trip to Prague, one of the first things we did was reach out to Johanka and Prague City Adventures. We knew we wanted to do another food tour with Johanka. She offered us a new one, this time in the Karlin area of Prague. She took us to several restaurants, each with different but excellent food. We had a variety of foods, from traditional Czech, to newer foods like Ukrainian and Vietnamese. One thing I really enjoy about Johanka’s tours is that her tours also include a lot of history as well as the food. Johanka also answered many questions and offered advice things to do and places to visit.
Hi there, Jim, Thank you very much for sharing your experience with Johanka; it's great that you had the chance to do two food tours with her! We're super happy that you enjoyed the food on both occasions and that Johanka introduced some history bits that made it even more interesting for you. Czech cuisine is constantly evolving with foreign influences and it's great that you got to experience both the traditional flavors as well as the more modern ones. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you here in Prague again and we wish you the best on your subsequent travels! Warmest greetings from Prague, Barbora & the Prague City Adventures Team
Our guide Nicola and the food tour were fantastic! We learned a lot about Czech history and culture and experienced local dishes with a modern twist. The food was delicious! Nicola took us to four very different and fun settings -- places we never would have visited on our own. This tour and our guide were the highlight of our trip!
Hi there, Thank you very much for this wonderful review! It's great that you had such a good time on your tour with Nikola and that you enjoyed her choice of venues. We're very happy that this experience turned out to be the highlight of your stay in Prague! We come to welcome you back for more local adventures in the future. Happy New Year! Barbora & the Prague City Adventures Team
My family of 4 enjoyed the private food tour in Prague with Mr. John. He did an excellent job showing us around Old Town Square and bringing us to different restaurants that were authentic to the culture. The tour felt like we were with a friend rather than a tour guide.
Dear Donna, Thank you very much for this wonderful review, we're super happy you enjoyed your Prague Food Tour with John! It's great that you visited some authentic Czech restaurants and that the whole experience felt like a friendly encounter. It was a pleasure hosting you on this tour, and we hope to see you again soon. Warm regards, Barbora & Prague City Adventures Team
We booked a walking food tour for the day we arrived. Great decision. We got dinner and a good idea of some of the areas. Michaela personally guided our tour. She was engaging and personal. Her selections on where to go were spot on. We subsequently asked for additional help securing a car and driver to get us to Prague and she was happy to help. We would do this tour again without hesitation.
Dear Stephanie, Thank you very much for your kind review! We're truly happy you enjoyed your tour food tour with Michaela. It's great that she also gave you some ideas for the surrounding areas and helped with additional services. It was a pleasure hosting you on this tour and we hope to see you again on your next visit! All the best, Barbora & Prague City Adventures Team
My mom and I took this tour with Misa (Michaela) in early August. We had a BLAST! The first stop was for chlebicky, these incredible open faced sandwiches with counter service. Highly recommend the brie and salami, my mom was a fan of the potato salad. Misa kept us walking in the shade on a hot summer day, which I really appreciated. She is so thoughtful and friendly! We spent all of the time talking about food, the history of food, and how that history intersected with the history of Prague. We went to an amazing venue with beef stew and yogurt based coleslaw which lives in my dreams since then. We also had local Czech beer here as the brewery was right outside. :) The ice cream was life changingly creamy, recommend the pistachio or sweet cream. We were getting full at this point but then we got to go to a czech restaurant and eat a trio of delicious things: fermented cheese (don't sleep on this), goulash, and another carrot-based stew with dumplings that I forgot the name of. It had cranberry jelly and whipped cream and sirloin steak; so good, trust me! We had some local wine at this point. We ended with coffee at a local student-led cafe. Overall, we had a blast on this tour and would highly recommend it!
Dear Jessica, Thank you for joining Misa on this Prague Food Tour and for taking the time to share your experience in such detail! We're super happy you and your mom enjoyed your tour and appreciated Misa's friendly and thoughtful manner. It's great that you found Czech cuisine tasty and that you weren't left hungry. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to hosting you again on your next visit! Warmest regards, Barbora & Prague City Adventures Team
We had a food tour as part of our summer day event! We really enjoyed it, the guide, the choice of places and overall vibe. We would definitely recommend it for the groups to visit if you'd like to try authentic Czech food.
