An honest look at the experience
Celebrating New Year’s in Prague is a special affair, and this pub crawl is tailored to make it even more memorable. While it’s not a quiet, relaxed evening, it’s a well-structured way to maximize your party time with friends or fellow travelers.
Starting at the Discover Prague Tours Office, you’ll meet your guide and fellow revelers. One of the main perks is the one-hour of unlimited drinks, which sets a lively tone right from the start. You’ll find that many of Prague’s clubs, especially on New Year’s Eve, tend to charge high entrance fees or even impose long lines—this crawl helps you avoid that hassle, providing a smooth entry into the party.
The first venue is where the real value shines. For a full hour, you can enjoy unlimited beer, wine, vodka mixed drinks, and champagne, which is a rare treat on a busy night like New Year’s Eve. This part of the experience is particularly praised for offering “good value for money,” especially given the high prices that venues typically charge on December 31.
After the initial hour, the crawl moves to at least two more clubs, each with a welcome shot upon entry. The tour guide’s role is helpful here—they ensure the group moves smoothly from place to place, and you get to enjoy the party without stressing over logistics. The highlight is the Shots Bar & Club, where you’ll celebrate the midnight moment, making it an authentic and energetic way to welcome the new year.
Reviewers mention that the ability to come and go from the clubs adds flexibility, letting guests choose to stay longer or explore on their own. However, leaving the club might involve waiting in long lines to re-enter, so plan accordingly if you’re keen to stay until dawn.
The tour’s length is five hours, starting at either 19:45 or 20:45. This offers enough time to enjoy the evening without feeling rushed, though the night can extend as long as you like once inside Shots & the other venues. The guide remains available to assist throughout, and the experience is conducted in English, making it accessible for international visitors.
Price-wise, at $114 per person, this pub crawl offers a solid value considering it includes entry to multiple clubs, free shots, and the one-hour of unlimited drinks. Many individual clubs would charge a premium just for entry or drinks on New Year’s Eve, so bundling it all together makes sense for those wanting to party without surprises or extra costs.

What makes this pub crawl stand out?
One of the biggest draws is that it’s a well-organized event that takes the stress out of New Year’s Eve planning. Instead of wandering to different spots trying to avoid fees or lines, you’ve got a guide leading the way. This is especially appealing in a city like Prague, where the party scene can be lively but also crowded and expensive on special nights.
The unlimited drinks at the first venue are a major highlight, giving you the chance to toast the year’s passing without constantly reaching for your wallet. The welcome shots at each club add to the festive atmosphere—think of them as little surprises that keep the energy high.
Authenticity-wise, this experience offers a genuine local-style celebration. You’ll be with a mixed crowd of travelers and locals, all eager to start the year on a high note. The Shots Bar & Club is a popular spot, and celebrating the countdown there ensures you’re part of the city’s coolest party scene.
Several reviews praise the experience for being good value, especially when compared to the high costs of individual club entries on New Year’s Eve. The fact that you can enjoy a variety of venues in one night makes it an economical choice for those who want to make the most of their time in Prague.
Practical considerations
While this pub crawl is packed with fun, there are a few practical factors to keep in mind. Transportation isn’t included, so plan your route to and from the meeting point—located inside the Discover Prague Tours Office—ahead of time. The central location makes it accessible for most travelers staying nearby.
Group sizes can vary, but the guide keeps the group manageable and lively. The flexibility to come and go from the clubs is beneficial, especially since you might want to take a break or explore other parts of the city later. However, re-entry to Shots Club might involve waiting in line, so patience is advisable if you plan to stay until the early hours.
Timing is flexible, with start times at 19:45 or 20:45, so you can choose what works best for your schedule. The five-hour duration is enough for a full night of celebration, but many guests find they want to stay longer once inside the club.
Cost-wise, this experience is more economical than booking separate club entries, especially considering the included drinks and shots. But keep in mind that food is not included, so if you want a substantial meal, plan to eat beforehand.
Who is this experience best suited for?
This pub crawl is ideal for young travelers, groups of friends, or solo visitors who want to celebrate New Year’s Eve with energy and camaraderie. If you enjoy social environments, dancing, and lively nightlife, you’ll find this event perfect.
It’s also a good choice for those who prefer value for money—getting multiple club entries, free shots, and unlimited drinks all wrapped into one night. If you’re looking for a more relaxed, quiet New Year, this may not be the right fit.
People who don’t mind big crowds or hectic party scenes will love the vibe, but if you’re after a more subdued celebration, consider other options.
