Guides including Rudi and Balaz have tailored routes around personal preferences, festivals, and local nightlife.

“Went to 3 breweries and enjoyed 3 beers total and conversation. No snacks, even though the tour description said there would be snacks. The last brewery, a Ruin bar, was very nice. I think the tour is a little over priced - $68.03 usd per person for just 3 beers.”
