Visit Prague’s Steel Art Museum for a self-guided day of touchable art, fantasy figures, sci-fi characters, luxury cars, motorbikes, and artificial intelligence. You can sit in selected vehicles, handle superhero props, take photos, and join workshops. The museum is English-friendly and wheelchair accessible.
“the best gallery I've ever been in from the start to finish amazing fun the statues are so real and huge, such a variety of them, could go around and around, best time ever !!”
Travel from Prague to Terezín for a six-hour guided visit to the Small Fortress, Ghetto Museum, ceremonial halls, and central morgue. Guides such as Martin, Tony, and Veronica explain the site’s wartime past, while hotel pickup and admission fees keep the day simple.
“Our guide Veronika did a great job. She had to do the tour in English and Italian what was quite challenging, but she managed it very well. One could spend a lot more time in Terezin as the tour allows. I highly recommend to go to Terezin!!!”
At Choco-Story Prague, a professional chocolatier such as Paulina, Martina, or Michael guides you through cocoa’s journey from Aztec and Maya customs to Belgian pralines. Explore the compact museum at your own pace, taste several chocolates, then decorate your own bars to take home.
“it was very fun not so much the museum, but the workshop was very cool (thank you Paolina!) and the chocolate very yummy”
At Prague’s Beer Museum, an English-speaking host guides you through Czech brewing history, malt, hops, barley, and old cellars. You’ll receive three beer samples, including a welcome pour, then bottle, cork, and label your own beer. The visit is informal, self-paced, and best for adults.
“We had a great time at this museum! If you go here make sure you get to bottle a beer at the end, it’s fun to bring home and brag about. The only thing I missed was some kind audio guide. It could be a link to a soundcloud of something, and now with AI it’s should be quick and cheep to get in audio. And maybe some more info on the tasting, like “this one has more of whatever than this other beer, do you taste the difference?” Other than that a great experience.”
You collect your access details at Get Prague Guide on Maiselova 5, then use your phone to explore Old Town and New Town before entering the National Museum. The audio guide covers Old Town Square, the Astronomical Clock, Estates Theatre, Wenceslas Square, and the museum’s striking decorations in eight languages.
“Etkinliğe katılamadım çünkü karmaşık yapınız anlamamı güçleştirdi kupon farklı bilet farklı nasıl bir anlayış bulunduğum ortamda internet kötüydü ve işlemleri yetiştiremedim lütfen paramı geri iade edin çünkü gişeden tekrar para ödeyerek katılmak zorunda kaldım”
Visit Prague’s Museum of Torture and Torture Law in reconstructed cellars on Celetná Street. See about 100 instruments, period engravings, wax figures, documents, sound effects, and audiovisual scenes. The English-language experience suits adults interested in grim legal history, but graphic displays may upset children or sensitive visitors.
