Prague deputy mayor Zdenek Hrib told reporters on Monday that organised night-time pub crawls would now be banned.
“It will not be possible to have guided tours between 10pm and 6am,” he added.
Jiri Pospisil, another deputy mayor, said Prague city hall was “seeking a more cultured, wealthier tourist … not one who comes for a short time only to get drunk”.

How is banning pub crawls supposed to attract more tourists? Are there any “wealthier” tourists who go “yeah, I’d love to visit Prague! Oh, wait… they have guided night tours with beer? I better go to a difference city!”
It makes no sense.

My generation has been going to Prague for cheap beers since 40 years ago, and I suspect they did it before as well. Why the hate now if it’s been done forever?
