The guided tour opens every day from 9:00 to 17:00 and spans approximately 70–80 minutes, offering an immersive look at the entire brewing process, from the famous 300‑meter artesian well that supplies pure water, through the hall of fermentation tanks, to the tasting room where visitors can taste freshly brewed beers in seven different languages. The experience is tailored for adults (the tasting is only available to those over 18) and has become a must‑visit destination for beer lovers, culture enthusiasts, and families who want to learn about the legacy of Czech brewing. During the tour guests learn about the brewery’s long history, its protection as a National Heritage Site, and the unique role of the “Budvar” logo featuring a lion.
