This was a fantastic combination tour and perfectly timed for both locations! The glass factory tour really gave us an appreciation for this special craft. We were especially happy that the gift shop had multiple items that we did not see in every gift shop. In fact, the crystal + garnet design we bought was not in any stores so we really got our 'unique' gift representing the Czech Republic. The brewery tour was well done and ended up with a great taste of the special brew. Having lunch included made it so much easier for the day. We didn't have to spend our time trying to find some place to eat. If you go to Prague, be sure to take this tour.
Fun and entertaining.
Excellent trip -- good guide, would have been better if the new brewery was running
We had a very good guide for the day. We had a small group, only 7 of us plus the driver/guide. Very informative, good beer and good lunch.
This really is an excellent tour. The glass factory was excellent; you were so close to the workers that you could see and feel what was happening. The brewery tour was a little long, but it was very interesting and the lunch in the restaurant was very good. We had an excellent guide who kept us entertained with his stories for most of the day. I would recommend this tour to anyone, it's definitely worth the money, even though it was a little cold in the brewery cellars, so do wrap up warm.
This was the perfect day trip from Prague. They picked us up at our hotel, and the day was well paced interesting and I absolutely loved it.
This excursion was definitely worth the price. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and engaged in conversation about all kinds of topics. The glass works tour was fascinating and we were shocked at how close we were able to get to the workers. The tour guide at the glass works was less enthusiastic and didn't seem to want to talk to us after the tour, but he did recite his script well during the tour.
The brewery visit was fun and informative with a good mix of film and live narration. The guide, was able to answer every question and did a great job. The beer is the best I've had! I highly recommend this trip to visitors of the Czech Republic and maybe even locals!
Once we were on our way, everything was very easy. The only hitch was when I called the day before, whoever I talked to said he couldn't find my name even though I had made the reservation weeks before. Everything turned out fine the day of the trip.
The glass factory and brewery were great! You get to see the processes of both places from beginning to end. The restaurant Na Splice is good too, definitely get your fill of Pilsner Urquell from there before you leave. Guide was great, even gave us a little tour of Plzen's Old Town - city center!
This is a must-do activity! What a wonderful experience. Our driver picked us up at the meeting location and took us to a little town outside of Prague to visit a nationally recognized glass blowing factory. After a tour of the factory we were able to purchase beautiful hand crafted glass at extremely affordable prices - significantly cheaper than in Prague and much more unique. Then, we made our way to the Pilsner Urquell Brewery for a tour of the property and of course - a tasting. Yum! Our driver was so kind as to leave us an hour after the tour to have a late lunch in the delicious brewery restaurant where we enjoyed 0.50 pints and great food. We even had enough time to visit the brewery tour shop before getting back in the car for a relaxing drive back to the city. The excursion was well worth the price, not just for the experience but also for the great deals we got on our holiday gifts and souvenirs!
Great trip! Very informative! The glass factory was amazing & the brewery was wonderful! Very fun! A++!
Another very pleasant day trip. A good mix
of glass for myself and brewery for my hubby
Both very interesting tours
Wonderful trip! We had a private tour since there were only 2 of us that day. Tourist guide and driver Paul was very nice and attentive. Lunch was tasty with beer. Glass factory was enlightening but one of the sales lady was pretty rude and unfriendly.
This was a great chance to explore some of the areas outside of Prague. The glass factory was very informative and the skill of the workers very impressive. We couldn't help but buy a souviner. The brewery portion was fun but I found the group size to be too large.
An excellent tour, with very good guides. The only negative issue was the driver was new and had some trouble with navigation. The crystal factory was a fantastic family owned facility producing hand made crystal the traditional way, with good prices in the gift shop. The Pilsner Urquell brewery was worth the price of the entire tour for the glass of open fermented, cask conditioned, unfiltered, oak barreled lager available in the at the end of the tour, in the 100 year old under ground traditional cellar. The best Pilsner in the world made exactly the same way as a century ago, FANTASTIC.
Really interesting and amazingly high tech. The drive to Pilsen was a bonus to be out of Prague, and into a small town in the countryside.
