I'm actually the manager of the orloj shop(astronomical clock shop). The clock on the front keeps being played with by tourists and moves around 😢. If you pass by anyone in the team would happily explain how the clock works and a bit about the history.
I would love to see a video with authentic souvenirs from Czech! I’m always looking at these kinds of videos when I travel as not to buy something disrespectful or too touristy 😂
Marionettes would be a good option. My mom was here in the early 90's, shortly after the fall of the Soviet union and she brought home a couple of them. Sadly she passed away a few years ago. I still have them and I moved to Prague since.
Oh I would love this! Buying Czech candy from the grocery store was my first trip souvenir. My boyfriends mom likes collecting coins from different locations, so I've started doing that. But it's hard to know what you can buy as a souvenir that isn't a rip off. My mom is very interested in Czech glass beads, so I'd love to know where a good quality place for that is.
"Czech" refers to the language or the nationality, it does not refer to the country. Either you want to see authentic souvenirs from the Czech Republic (formal) or Czechia (informal).
Me, too. I bought a breakfast set for first my daughter, then my kids from Krtek. They cost 30 €, but weren't used for years. I bought a Coffee Mug with Krtek in Karlovy Vary in a special shop. Now this shop doesn't exist anymore.
A guide to souvenirs actually made in Czechia or Prague would be useful. There's nothing worse than going somewhere, looking for souvenirs and finding the ubiquitous "Made in China" printed on them.
It's all about economics 101. It's what the tourists want and what they want to pay. They just want something as a reminder of the place and not spending a fortune on something they don't need.
@@kauaiboy5o Thats obvious but u can still have some czech product as a souvenir. BTW Janek already made such video in the past. Recomending for example beer, which u can take home and keep the can/bottle
A lot of these tourist looking stores are not owned by locals in any touristy city and they don't care about where the stock comes from. They just move in to make money. Hence why they sell stuff like Soviet hats. You're better going to craft and "makers" hipster art type shops for actual locally made products.
@@gcooper642 I get my souvenirs at gift shops inside the attractions itself like museums, castles, etc. whether made in China or not. In the end, it is the preference of the casual tourist and the economics of it. If you like your iPhone, it's made in China and you have few alternatives like many other things.
I like to buy books as souvenirs. Most bookshops have at least a few English translations of novels written by Czech authors (or wherever you happen to travel). It's great because it doesn't just catch dust on a shelf; you can spend time with it and learn more about the culture when you're back home. It can also support small businesses that don't target tourists, and I noticed that some bookstores in Prague (at least Luxor) have student discounts
Every time I was in the Praque I always went to the bookstores and bought picture books with the Krtek or some characters from the Vecernicek. It is cheaper, authentic and everyone loves it.
Couple of weeks ago someone stole the huge Krtek (The Mole) plush toy from a library in Finland and the Embassy of Czech donated a new one for the library. 😊
We have the same issue with Soviet souvenirs in Poland... not on the big scale, but still. So annoying, especially taking into account our whole history (not only WW2 and so on).
Great video, thanks! Minor thing: The "a" in the word "wafer" is pronounced like "paper", not like "waffle". And yes, please, make a video on authentic Prague souvenirs, preferably before September 12th which will be my last day of a one week holiday in Prague!

my mother has just visited prague and she thinks it's a fantastic place, she also bought some nice things home for us, an ashtray, a chocolate postcard, too, plus she showed us pictures from there, it looks like something from a fairy tale, I'd like to see prague myself, but that will be when I have saved enough money, sure it will be a good trip in the future :)
You guys are awesome and your videos are indispensable when planning a trip to the Czech Republic. Just an English tip: use "gothic" instead of "gothical."
We are from the USA and last time we were in Prague we also visited Kutna Hora. We will be back in October so maybe one of those magnets would be nice 😂
You’re making me want to do an honest guide video from Niagara Falls 😆 we have the most ridiculous shit here like "mystical Niagara Falls water" which is in a super tiny bottle and is most likely tap water. Which to them is mystical Niagara Falls water 😂
I’ve thought about making the “Dis Honest Guide” which would show places and the myths and misrepresented things in a city. And since “Dis” can be a replacement for this it could be fun let the viewers figure out what’s real and what’s not. Yeah, I’ve got too much time on my hands…but not so much that I’d actually do it.
It'd be nice to have a TH-cam channel where locals share misconceptions tourists have about their city, all in one place. I mean Prague is nice but I've been there twice and there's only that much you can realistically learn about it as a tourist.
I have been looking for the Soviet signs in the souvenir shops and I do see less of them than before. But it's crazy they're still there. Prague even started to rename streets named after Soviet generals.
@@wernerleinberger9847 I was thinking of Koněvova in Prague 3, which is named after a Soviet general. Now it's being changed to the first mayor of this part of town, Žižkov.
Regarding the Wafers. I was couple of times in Prague and I always bring this Wafers with me back home. I buy them in the supermarket and not in a suvenir shop but still they are special to Czech and altho they are not "Prague local speciality" they are still special tasty and fun to give to friends. I get this video, but you need to remember that we are turists and not locals. any way, love your videos, keep up the good work! Love from Israel!
Probably a conflation between wafer and waffle, which are very similar words to begin with (both have the same origin and are related to “weave”). Google translate even says that “oplatka” can also mean waffle (I don’t speak Czech and thus I don’t know how common this meaning is). In German, we usually don’t make the distinction either and call both things “Waffel”, unless in a religious context, where it’s “Oblate” and we’re full circle back to the Czech word.
6:33 For other how don't know that souvenir. In my country Philippines, we called it barrelman or barrel man a common souvenir from Bagio where it originate. I am very intrigued why they selling it on Prague.
Hey guys, can you make a video based on flea markets in Prague and Krakow? I really want some good info about it from you guys, as I am an antique collector.
The soviet guff is probably due due those buying them arent the brightest bulb in the pack. Yes id being back a fridge magnet as a memory, and for my late dad a wee ornament. But some of that stuff is designed for the numpties
Gotta love your shirt with what I think is a ČD 754 series locomotive, which is called "Búvár" or "Diver" here in Hungary due to its prominent "goggles". Such a cute-looking machine.
4:54 "They taste like they're from Prague...They taste bad" And that's why you're the honest guide(s) 👍 10:32 "And if you wanna say 'wafer from Prague', you're gonna say 'oplatka z Luhačovic' " I see what you did there, cancelling the false advertisement (4:28) with a mistranslation 😂
Another great video! My wife is from Czech and I've been to Czech 4 times. Love the wafers and bring them back as gifts. If your talking to Americans they would pronounce as 'way-fer' as in 'I'll show the way' as opposed 'wah-fers
The metal toilet keychains are usually used as a portable ashtrays. So you use it to make sure the cigarette is no more burning and then throw the butt in the trashcan.
The naked man keychain - we also have that kind of souvenir in the Philippines - in Baguio, the summer capital of the country, there is the 'man in the barrel figurine. Similar to your keychain only bigger and made of wood - no pun intended 🙂
8:44 I also can not understand why some souveernir store sell Ushanka. (I bought Becherovca and canned kozel at tesco, Beer Hair Shampoo at manufaktura.)
This kind of nonsense is all over any tourist destination and it always makes me wonder who buys it. Who are these people who have such bad taste yet enough money to travel that far ?
Our last souvenir was from the shop across the Astronomic clock, the one selling crystal glass, bougt a couple of schnapps glass, damn they have a good singing clinking sound when cheering :)
When we are visiting Prague we are not really looking for Prague souvenirs, but we always go home with some Czech food. A bottle of Becherovka, Gurkings from Znojmo, Utopenci and Kmin herbs. They are hard to find outside Czech republic
In my childhood in (west) Germany, there were on TV "a je to", now Pat and Mat. I found T-Shirts of them on a market. Some years later I bought one, not "Czech Drinking Team" 😒, more fitting to me something as fireman. Or a Coffemug and children porcelain from "Krtek", also as remember my childhood. Original Czech, but pricy. That's real Czech and my childhood.
@@boriskapchits7727 Krtek was always on some Children's Programmes in Germany and Austria. So I know it from there, I liked it and still like it my whole life.
A big thing for thing like the wafers and magnets of this stuff is intended to be brought home and shown to firends, colleagues, and acquaintances and Praha / Prague is very recognizable while a spa town or Kutna Hora would be meaningless to most foreigners.
I would love to see more content about exciting places and their history in Prague (e.g. Kantyna, Strecha Lucerna, Joystick Bar, ...) like in the old deleted episodes. After all, these have inspired us to visit Prague off the beaten track more than 10 times now.
regarding Prague toilet- there is one good place for it. It is in Kiev and it is Toilet museum - thery are collecting bizarre toilets toys, souvenirs etc
We are selling souvenirs in Canada. The most annoying thing is if tourists don’t buy the souvenir but take a picture of it. Like a postcard or fridge magnet.
well, i was now 2 times in prague, and i think it's a lovely city - but, tbh, i'm not that much into souveniers - besides "functional" ones, like a umbrella (you you keep forgetting yours), a cap etc. otherwise, i'm either like honza - and get myself food, or cider ('cause you have there at some point some cider, what is literally the same here, but way better - and in bigger cans).
I guess you can find such strange souvenirs everywhere. In Poland, by the seaside, you can buy a highlander's ciupaga "axe" with the name of the city of Międzyzdroje, which lies by the sea.
I am actually the one that of all other things would choose the clock comb thing. I like practical souvenirs and its so nice and flashy and bizarre. Needless to say, I'd also by the Prague loo keychain.
Odd request maybe, but i want to come to Prague woth my wife and 2 year old son. Id love to see a video on how accessible the city is and family friendly attractions. Also - what are everyday supermarkets, convenience store chains etc? For emergency kid supplies and food shopping? Find it useful to know where locals grocery shop to keep the cost down when your traveling with a little one! Thank you!
Supermarkets are mostly foreign, so you will maybe recognise some of the names, that is: Billa, Lidl, Kaufland, Albert, Tesco, Globus, Penny Market, Norma, Makro, Coop (the last is the only Czech one, and it's mainly in the countryside, so not relevant for you).
Interesting about the Wafers. I always thought they were a Czech thing, never thought about them being a regional thing as well. We always drive to Czech Republic from Dresden, because of Kofola. Would love to here about the history and making, because it is so unique for czech.
I started to buy things that I can use up as souvenirs, so these things don't get on my nerves after some time. I usually look for special food, drinks, soaps or even spices or seeds.
I been in Prague (and Czech republic) only once. But still, I think the souvenirs must include beer, Jozhin s Bazhin, Krtek and some sculls and gorguils.
Sellers don't recognize it's not Prague because they are mostly some Russians or something, they are not Czechs. When Czech person sees these "Prague souvenirs" he wants to destroy that, especially those ugly russian dolls.
@honestguide I was planning Prague trip since last couple of months and I must confront that my 3 nights itinerary is completed madeup through your videos and suggestions..I am so hoping to bump into you through my break starting 17th - 20th Aug. Thank you for your wonderful videos and informations about Prague. Let me know if we can have a beer together please.
Funny video, guys! Janek, by now I'm sure you've been told that "wafer" is pronounced "way-fer", not "woff-er" as in waffle. Hey, it's English - what do you expect, logical consistency? And it's fun, once in a very long time, to catch you in a flaw in your amazingly perfect English! We used to buy a calendar of beautiful photos every year. We've been coming to Prague for about 10 years.
Ah yes, my family in Hungary shares Honza’s affinity for Reese’s. Every time I or someone else goes to visit it is obligatory to bring with them a stash of various Reese’s chocolate products lol

Billa, Lidl, Kaufland, Albert, Tesco, Globus, Penny Market, Norma, Makro, Coop (the last is the only Czech one, and it's mainly in the countryside, so not relevant for you).
Interesting about the Wafers. I always thought they were a Czech thing, never thought about them being a regional thing as well.
We always drive to Czech Republic from Dresden, because of Kofola. Would love to here about the history and making, because it is so unique for czech.
Our favorite Prague souvenir is the “I tredelnik Prague” shirt
One of my old classmate's once came to school wearing a Budenovka teachers were not amused
I started to buy things that I can use up as souvenirs, so these things don't get on my nerves after some time. I usually look for special food, drinks, soaps or even spices or seeds.
I been in Prague (and Czech republic) only once. But still, I think the souvenirs must include beer, Jozhin s Bazhin, Krtek and some sculls and gorguils.
This channel has taught me world tourism 101.
Ohh bringing up the expired Belarusian Rubels y'all are savage 😂😅
The issue of inappropriate souvenirs is everywhere tourists go....
Sellers don't recognize it's not Prague because they are mostly some Russians or something, they are not Czechs. When Czech person sees these "Prague souvenirs" he wants to destroy that, especially those ugly russian dolls.
Amen 🙌
Don’t tell me that was filmed recently. I was visiting Mutsek station so often in my vacation in Prague until yesterday
Love the Nola hat!
I have a Prague Fridge magnet with a Tatra T3 tram on it
We will be in Prague August 30-September 7!!!
I’m so excited!!!
And you've got Trdelniks? These guys don't approve it 🙅♂
@@JollyBotox not my fave but i got to try it to be able to experience…
Where can I buy that hoodey with a "brejlovec" loco on it???? (4:06)
So glad that I now know how to say "wafer from Prague"!
@honestguide I was planning Prague trip since last couple of months and I must confront that my 3 nights itinerary is completed madeup through your videos and suggestions..I am so hoping to bump into you through my break starting 17th - 20th Aug. Thank you for your wonderful videos and informations about Prague. Let me know if we can have a beer together please.
Funny video, guys! Janek, by now I'm sure you've been told that "wafer" is pronounced "way-fer", not "woff-er" as in waffle. Hey, it's English - what do you expect, logical consistency? And it's fun, once in a very long time, to catch you in a flaw in your amazingly perfect English!
We used to buy a calendar of beautiful photos every year. We've been coming to Prague for about 10 years.
Ah yes, my family in Hungary shares Honza’s affinity for Reese’s. Every time I or someone else goes to visit it is obligatory to bring with them a stash of various Reese’s chocolate products lol
i would love to see the good souvernirs episode asap, because i'm going to prague in a week!
