Prague: Evening Wine Tasting & Walking Tour with Vinoteka Stop

Summary

Evening strolls, local wines, and Prague’s secret corners

You’ll wander Prague’s ancient streets with a local guide who shares stories you won’t find in any book, then settle into a real Czech vinoteka for a relaxed wine tasting with regional snacks. Expect laughter over tricky pronunciations, new flavors from Moravia, and a quieter side of the city most visitors miss.

What’s the experience like?

I didn’t know what to expect when we met up near the Astronomical Clock—just that I needed something slower than the usual rush. Our guide, Jana, had this gentle way of weaving stories into the cobblestones as we wandered through old streets. She pointed out a tiny window where people used to buy bread centuries ago (I’d have missed it for sure), and there was this moment when the bells echoed off the Charles Bridge and everyone just sort of paused. You could smell roasted chestnuts somewhere nearby. It felt like Prague was letting us in on some secret.

The main reason I booked was honestly the wine tasting part—I mean, “vinoteka” sounded mysterious enough. The place Jana brought us to was nothing like those polished bars you find in big cities; more like someone’s cozy living room with mismatched chairs and candlelight that made everyone look softer. We tried three Czech wines (the white had this grassy smell I can’t describe) and shared a plate of cheese and ham that tasted way better than it looked. Jana told us about Moravian vineyards and how Czech wine is kind of an underdog—she laughed when I tried to say “Veltlínské zelené.” I definitely butchered it.

There were only six of us on the tour, so by the end it felt almost like friends hanging out instead of strangers ticking off another “thing to do in Prague.” The wine tasting in Prague didn’t feel rushed or touristy at all. If anything, I left wishing I’d asked more questions or maybe just stayed for one more glass. Sometimes you get lucky with these small group tours—this was one of those nights. Still thinking about that last sip of red as we walked back into the city lights.
