I will meet you 5 minutes before the start of the tour, next to the St. Hastal church. There are park benches, trees and a cross, so we will meet right there. I am a tall guy with glasses you can not overlook.
Description
This food tour is like a history lesson through food. Join me, a Prague local, and other foodies from around the world and let me take you a journey from traditional to contemporary Czech food. We will visit 4-5 different pubs, restaurants, coffee shops and bars and I will explain why we Czechs eat what we eat. I will talk about my childhood growing up in Prague, how it was living under the communist rule and answer any of your questions. We will also talk about tourist traps, what not to do in Prague and I will give you tons of tips and recommendations not only for Prague, but your future travel destinations. Because we all know, how bad food can spoil your vacation.

Full bellies - food and laughter with Martin!
What a joy to traverse the city eating and drinking with Martin. He has a wealth of knowledge about neighborhoods and history, an absolute bonus to the great local food scene. I can highly recommend connecting with him for this, or frankly, any tour!

Prague food tour five star experience with Martin Blum
Food choices were excellent and tailored to our group. He is very personable and has a strong knowledge of the culture and history, which we greatly appreciated. Martin has an expansive knowledge of food styles and preparation and can provide recommendations of places to try based on your interests and preferences. The tour felt well paced, thoughtfully organized, and gave us a much better sense of Prague beyond the typical tourist experience. We left full, learned a great deal, and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city.

A day in Prague
Wonderful food tour! Martin showed us to 4 places where we enjoyed both traditional and modern Czech food and drink and ended with some coffee and dessert. Martin shared Czech history, sprinkled in current events, and he answered all our questions throughout. He was an amazing local guide with such pride for his country. Highly, highly recommend this tour. Come hungry!

Fun Tour Good Food Great Guide
We had a great time with Martin in Prague! He took us to 5 different places for traditional Czech food and beverages, while providing a lot of background and history on Czech customs. The portions were large and everything was delicious. We also walked a bit in between stops and he gave us some history and stories along the way. I highly recommend this tour!

Great beer and food tour.
Our tour with Martin was excellent in every way. Just tell him what you want and he will tailor everything to your needs. In our case it was Czech food and beer. We all really enjoyed getting to know him over the course of the tour. 10 of 10 stars!

Wonderful food and conversation
Martin took us on the most delicious food tour, highly recommend! We got to try some new things and everything was high quality. You will certainly get your money's worth and then some. Food, beer, coffee, lemonade, desserts were all so yummy. We also learned a lot about the city and its history and got to see a lot of areas. Martin went out of his way to give us lots of recommendations (and traps to avoid), he was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend booking this tour at the beginning of your visit - thank you for a wonderful experience, Martin!
