A successful and world-famous brewery with a long tradition.
Budweiser Budvar is one of the most successful breweries in the Czech Republic. You can see what the beer production process looks like during the guided tour, which takes about an hour. During the tour you will go through the production plant from basic raw materials to the final product. A very popular part of the tour is a beer tasting from brewing tanks. Tours are also offered in foreign languages (English, German, Russian, French, Spanish and Italian).
Another attraction is the multimedia exposition entitled “The Story of the Beer of České Budějovice”. The film projection is very entertaining and even children will not be bored.
