Private Prague to Munich Transfer with Plzen Brewery Stop

Summary

Plzen Beer Tour on Your Way from Prague to Munich

You’ll travel from Prague to Munich in total comfort—with your own English-speaking driver—and enjoy an authentic two-hour stop at Plzen’s legendary brewery. It’s not just a ride; you get real Czech beer culture and time to explore Plzen’s lively old town along the way.

What’s the experience like?

We left Prague just after breakfast, the city still waking up and the air carrying that faint, sweet smell of fresh bread from the corner bakeries. Our driver, Tomas, greeted us right at our apartment door—he had that easygoing Czech warmth, and within minutes we were gliding out of the city, WiFi humming and cold water bottles ready. The landscape changed quickly: city blocks faded into rolling fields, dotted with little villages and the odd stork’s nest perched on a chimney. It was one of those mornings where the sky can’t decide if it’ll rain or not—patches of blue fighting with low clouds.

About halfway to Munich, we pulled into Plzen. You can smell the brewery before you see it—there’s this earthy, slightly sweet scent that hangs in the air. The Pilsner Urquell Brewery is huge, but somehow still feels old-world; copper tanks gleam behind glass, and our guide (Marek—he’s been here over a decade) led us through cool cellars where the beer ferments. He handed us a sample straight from the barrel—unfiltered, cloudy, with this creamy head that left a little mustache on my lip. I swear it tasted different than anything bottled.

We had just enough time to wander Plzen’s main square. There’s a buzz even on a weekday: locals chatting outside Café Regner, kids chasing pigeons near the three quirky fountains shaped like a camel, an angel, and a greyhound. St. Bartholomew’s Cathedral towers over everything—if you squint, you can spot climbers on its spire. We peeked inside the synagogue too; it’s massive and unexpectedly peaceful. I grabbed a quick pastry from a street vendor (flaky, filled with plum jam) before we hopped back in the car for Munich. The whole stop felt like a little adventure tucked into our transfer—way more memorable than any airport lounge.
