Paid £13.69 for 2 x self guided tour. Expected beer sampling tray at the end but were informed our tickets only entitled us to 1 beer each and no substitute for soft drink.
Given one beer in Prague is typically £1.50 it was a bit of a shock.
After we questioned this and showed staff our tickets we were ignored and served last after every person from our tour group had been served by a different barman who we hadn’t spoken to or taken our order.
Tour is very poor only to be surpassed by how rude the staff are. Tour is supposed to last 1.5hrs however it was probably about 30mins long. If you liked Disney’s country jamboree this is the tour for you.
Moral is maybe better to stick to Pilsner Urquell in future.
If I could have given the tour zero I would have.

Avoid. I was looking forward to this but was left very disappointed. Ive literally wrote this as Ive went around, and If I could I would rate it 0 stars, but Google been Google you have to leave at least 1 star.

3 Emails and 2 Phone calls, prior to my visit to enquire about tickets, were ignored.

1st impression was awful, went to ticket office, the assistant stuggled to understand English, he disappeared for ten minutes to find his colleaugue, who advised me next tour was at 15.30. It just was before 15.00, and he suggested go the bar have a drink, then come back to office. So I thought OK Ican I deal with that, its beer. 59kr (£2.10) you can't knock that and I didnt mind waiting 30 minutes.

Service at the bar was awful, one girl serving one blond guy walking around aimlessly as if he was lost and didn't know what he was doing.

Thats before the tour even started, so I did have any high hopes or aspirations for the tour.

So went back at 15.30 to get my ticket using my Prague cool pass, the guy in ticket office didnt have a clue, so had to go back and get his colleague to sort out my Prague pass.

Now for the tour..... and the experience doesn't get any better at all

Its self guided, you walk through different rooms, and there is an automated voice in each room, talking about the history of Staropramen, in some rooms the voice went on too much, where it become a little tedious.

In room, you get a little information on how the beer is made and the next room is about the bottling process, again, this drags on and you loose interest.

You then come to a pointless room, playing a pointless video, of Staropramen been transported to various locations. Im pretty sure people understand how products are transported from one country to another.

30 Minutes of my life I will not get back.

At least at the end, the free drink was served quicker than when I purchased a drink before the tour

Walked in and had to wait 10 minutes in a cold area before starting the tour only parts of the interactive parts worked, we had to skip one but as it didn’t work. Took 20 minutes to do the whole tour definitely doesn’t take 2 hours like it says. 3 parts to it not a lot to see. Only good part was the beer at the end but definitely not worth it.

There was no tour of the brewery. We entered a room of the original brewery (maybe) which was no longer used. The tour guide was a hologram of the original founder who’s voice and mouth motions did not match. (Imagine 1970’s karate movie). Zero human interaction. Total waste of money!!

Avoid! This was a self-guided tour where you watch videos in 3 separate rooms. Not engaging and you hardly see anything about how the beer is brewed. Would not waste your money here. Beer tasting at the end was OK.

This feels like such a missed opportunity; the tour itself is very dry and commercialised; projections and sealed off ingredients and flashing lights don't inspire the same emotion as a human tour guide would; and the tasting at the end, while nice beers, could have been better with a little more explanation of the beers and flavours involved. It was fine, not something I could recommend, and needs more human involvement. Self guided tours do not work.

The brewery tour was very disappointing. 4 different rooms with an automated voiceover in each room, meant the experience was quite boring. No guide or expert to ask questions to either during the tour. One of the machines didn’t work which was meant to show the bottling stage.

The beer tasting after the tour was okay but again, a bit disappointing. No information was given to us about the beers, such as the history or what flavours we should be expecting. 4 or 6 beers during the tasting depending on which package you book. One of the beers was Blue Moon (Belgian beer) which has no connection whatsoever to the Staropramen brand. If it does, we weren’t told.

Overall, it felt like we were an inconvenience being there. Wouldn’t recommend.

By far, it was the worst brewery tour I have been on. At least one of the interactive machines didn't work in each of the 4 rooms. In the 2nd room, the hologram didn't have any sound. The beer tasting was good however, not enough interaction. The tasting bar was loud and unenjoyable, and the gift shop was poor, although some items were reasonably priced. Staff seemed uninterested.

Nothing learnt about the history and an absolute waste of money. Would not recommend.

Tour was poor.

Self-tour with videos in each room.

The first room didn’t allow time to actually look at some of the screens.

There was no information about how the beer was brewed, or why it’s served traditionally with a large head.

Final room is on the bottling process and you can find your country - this gives some stats.

All in all a waste and I would not recommended, nor go again.

I wouldn’t even recommend to stag-dos!

Woeful. Massive anticlimax and hugely disappointing. Tour takes 20 mins max. No guide. Video screen presentations. You can access a few rooms only. Beers at the end were very good. Staff miserable and spent more time chatting amongst themselves. Souvenir shelf is worse than my own personal beer glass collection. Find a good pub and avoid this joke of a tour.
