Date of tour: June 3, 2024…read more Not sure how it took me so long to do this review, it was probably the highlight of our time in Prague and the gold standard for food tours! First, our guide: Klara was a fabulous and fascinating tour guide (even if she did throw shade at one of my favorite stores, Primark!), her mix of North American knowledge compliments her Czech sensibilities. She did a great job of introducing the groups and laying the groundwork for us. Here was our tour: 1. We started with Pilsner Urquell beer (or alternatively the dark Kozel beer), fried cheese with tartare sauce, marinated carp, a selection of sausages with mustard, potato salad, and Prague ham with creamed horseradish at the Lokal pub over at Dlouha 33. There was also some pickled fish and Czech Gothaj salami with onions. While the food here wasn't my favorite, I did try pretty much everything and nothing was too weird or gross for me! 2. We continued to Kantyna at Politickych veznu 5, where we tried the beef tartare, pulled pork, schnitzel made with pork neck and some pickled vegetables. A fantastic stop; even the beef tartare! Also got a kick out of the cool, old-school bottle of Royal Crown (RC) cola from Georgia! 3. We took the subway to the Kro Bistro & Bar at Sokolovská Street in the Karlín district, where we sampled the rotisserie chicken with brown butter and soy sauce, fermented potato pancakes, braised beef with dill sauce and roasted potatoes, and cabbage slaw. The beverages were a light beer from the Vinohradsky Pivovar brewery, a sweet local cider or lemonade. So. So. Good! The beef was so moist and savory, I could have drank the juice it was in! And the fermented potato pancakes looked and tasted like pitas, loved them! 4. Then we took the subway and finished the tour at the Myšák pastry shop at Vodickova 32. We had the buns with warm vanilla custard, "vetrnik": choux pastry with vanilla pastry cream, caramel whipped cream and glaze, and "likerova spicka": biscotti with chocolate mousse, eggnog, and chocolate cover. We also had black coffee. A fascinating mix of items that--while not all amazing--were all interesting. Months later my husband still talks about the vanilla pastry with caramel whipped cream!

Do not recommend! I paid $143 (around 3,000 CZK or approx…read more €135) for what turned out to be the most disappointing and upsetting experience with a food tour company in Prague. Not only did I get food poisoning, but when I contacted them to cancel, they showed absolutely no empathy or understanding. They flat-out refused to issue a refund, citing a confusing and inconsistent cancellation policy. Tripadvisor clearly states that cancellations made 24 hours in advance are eligible for a refund, yet the receipt I received after payment claims you need to cancel 21 days in advance. This bait-and-switch is incredibly dishonest. When I tried to explain my situation, their response was shockingly rude and unprofessional--they even called me "disrespectful" simply for pointing out the scammy nature of their refund policy. For a tour that is by far the most expensive food tour in Prague, their customer service is appalling, and their greed is on full display. I will be disputing the charge with my bank. Avoid this company at all costs--you deserve better. To add insult to injury, when I asked why a refund wasn't possible, they said that "preparations and reservations" are made the night before. Really? Who's going to eat the food I paid for? What exactly are these "reservations," when most restaurants regularly cancel or adjust group bookings? One booking made a day before isn't going to make or break a night. Plus, traditional Czech food is largely preserved or pre-prepared--it's not like they're cooking anything fresh per person. And if the tour booking stays open until it fills, how are you already prepping for me specifically? Their explanation makes no sense. Then they changed their reasoning again and said they couldn't refund me because the tour guide needs to be paid for their time and effort. I get that people need to be compensated, but I never met the guide, never received the service, and canceled as soon as I knew I was sick. If the guide was still paid, that's on the company--not the sick customer. It's just another excuse to keep the money, no matter what. The inconsistency in their responses shows they'll say anything to avoid doing the right thing. Again--go with literally any other food tour in Prague.

The definite highlight was the Kutna Hora (Bone) church although we ended up visiting a few churches. Lunch at Dacicky was very good. You had your choices from pork knuckle to Duck to Beef Cheeks & some vegetarian options. Our guide Brandon was awesome! He was very knowledgeable & had some great stories & took care of us. If you are lucky enough to get Brandon, make sure you get his Prague list of recommendations for restaurants, attractions, etc. There were about 20 in the tour group and a second in Spanish tour group-so total about 40 on a coach bus. Bring your walking shoes as we walked to all the sites after we visited the church. ( & their is about a 15 minutes walk from Old town center to the bus) A great way to see some of the sites outside of Prague. Would highly recommend Brandon & Sandeman's.

A very good tour today from Brian as we spent three hours together touring Prague and pointing out…read moremany of the sites. He moved swiftly through the spots but still stopped often and detailed the cultural highlights of this part of the old town. You're not going to see everything in three hours but you will definitely have the opportunity to get your bearings, see the big sites and have a scratch at this wonderful city. Brian was fun and entertaining, the tour was a blast and at the end we still had 25 of the 30 people. That's a pretty good turnout. This was my NINTH Sandeman's tour after Edinburgh, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Dublin, Madrid, Brussels, Copenhagen, and Porto. Definitely one of the better ones! [Review 12238 overall, 2022 of 2019.]

We thoroughly enjoyed Marcus' informative tour with his little bit of humor thrown in.

I hate that I forgot our driver's name because he was AMMAZING! We took a windy tour around Prague from the waterfront to the city square to John Lennon's memorial - all pretty dope.

I cannot recommend this tour more - a great time filled with details about this really old and really cool city!

Date of ride: June 2, 2024…read more This seemed like a super fun way to see a lot of Prague in a short period of time, especially since we were staying a bit further out at the STAGES hotel. Unfortunately it was not the best experience. Our pick up time was 4 pm, Prague-time. I made sure we were in the lobby a few minutes before in case they were early so we could take advantage of a break in the rain we had been receiving that day. But there was no Old Car. After 15 minutes without a car and no word from the company, I sent an email to them and received a response that the car was minutes away. It did not arrive until after 430, nearly the time that our 40-minute ride would be coming to an end. As an apology, the driver had a bottle of prosecco. Very nice, but I don't drink. My traveling companions had some but it was a rainy, windy day so it wasn't the best choice in terms of beverage selections! We started with the top down but soon after we needed to pull over and put it on because the rain started up again. If it's raining, you might as well tool around Prague in an Uber because it's hard to see anything or take any pictures. The blankets supplied helped keep us warm and dry-ish but really dampened the entire experience. Had the driver come on time, it would have been a dry ride and a completely different experience.

Really nice self-guided tour and a great option if you want to take things at your own pace. The…read morefacility was very clean, and when I went, there weren't many people around, so it felt relaxed and easy to explore without being rushed. There's a brief demonstration along the way where someone comes out to show you the proper way to pour the beers, including what each pour is called and why they're served with that signature foam on top. At the end of the tour, you get a token for a beer at the bar, which is a nice little perk. You can also order food at the bar if the tour works up an appetite. Overall, an easygoing experience. The self-guided format makes it especially nice because you can linger where you want, learn a little, and--most importantly--end the tour with a beer.

Not sure why there are high reviews for this on both Yelp and Google Reviews; I thought it was an…read moreincredibly middling and overpriced experience. For the cost of nearly $30 USD, you get an audio recording tour of a beer "museum" complete with some lame graphics and a tasting that consisted of beer with mainly foam, which they said enhanced the flavor but seemed like a way of cheating out on a full pour. It's not the brewery either, so don't expect to see anything related to the actual brewing process. If you want to try Pilsner Urquell, you can do so a lot cheaper at any bar nearby, which is what this basically was. 2 stars instead of 1 because the bathrooms were pristine and the space itself is really nice with plenty of seating and free WiFi.
