If you’re looking for something a little different to spice up your evening in Prague, the Drunken Monkey Boat Party might catch your eye. This isn’t just a standard cruise; it’s a lively, music-filled adventure on the river with a 2-hour open bar and a free pass to one of the city’s top clubs, Duplex. From what we gather, it’s a good choice for those who love to combine scenic views with energetic nightlife.
What we particularly like about this experience is that it offers a genuine party atmosphere on the water with a live DJ spinning tunes on the sundeck—not just inside, which is a great touch for better views and a more open vibe. The fact that it includes free entrance to Duplex, Prague’s renowned rooftop club, adds a nice extra layer of value. However, a potential downside is that the 6-hour duration might be a bit long for some, especially if you’re not a heavy drinker or prefer more relaxed evenings. This tour seems well-suited for travelers wanting to enjoy Prague’s vibrant nightlife with a fun water twist.
If you’re in the mood for a social, energetic night on the water, and enjoy music, drinks, and a great city view, this experience is likely to suit you. It’s especially appealing for those wanting a lively atmosphere rather than a quiet cruise or a historical sightseeing tour.

What to Expect From the Itinerary

For more beverage-focused experiences, here's what we've covered in Prague
Starting Point in Prague: The River Cruise
The tour kicks off around 8:00 pm at “River Boats Prague” on Dvořákovo nábřeží. From here, the real fun begins. As you set sail, you’ll get a fantastic chance to view Prague’s beautiful skyline at sunset from the water. This is a prime moment to snap photos—think of the scenic backdrop with historic bridges, domes, and spires framed by the evening sky.
The boat itself is designed for enjoyment, with music and a lively atmosphere. The 2-hour open bar is a real highlight here, offering beer, wine, mixed drinks, and vodka shooters supplied by friendly hosts. The DJ on the sundeck keeps the energy high with tunes played out in the open air, creating a genuine party vibe that’s hard to match on land. According to reviews, the hosts are generous with a variety of liquors, including beer, sangria, and vodka, which keeps the mood lively.
Prague’s Famous Dlouhá Party Street
After cruising, you’ll be taken to Dlouhá street, a well-known nightlife hub packed with bars and clubs. This part of the experience is about getting your feet on solid ground and continuing the party vibe. The guides will point you to some of Prague’s best venues, making it easy to hop from one lively spot to another. This transition from water to land allows for a seamless, energetic night out.
After-Party at Duplex Club
When the cruise ends around 10 pm, the party shifts to Duplex, one of Prague’s top clubs with rooftop views over the city. The free entry card you receive means you don’t have to worry about cover charges—you can just head upstairs and keep dancing. The 4-hour after-party is an extension of the evening’s fun, with plenty of space to socialize, dance, and enjoy some of the best skyline views from the rooftop.
Additional Details
The activity is quite straightforward: it begins at the river and ends back at the start point. The maximum of 150 travelers ensures a lively but manageable crowd, and most travelers can participate, making it accessible to many. Keep in mind the regulations—there’s a city noise curfew after 10 pm, and the tour adheres to local laws about alcohol and noise. These are important to ensure a smooth experience without unexpected interruptions.

Our Take on the Experience

What really makes this tour stand out is the combination of scenic views, music, and drinks—all in one lively package. The fact that the DJ spins on the open deck rather than inside is a nice touch, allowing you to take in the Prague skyline while dancing or relaxing with a drink.
Reviewers have praised the stunning views and the generous alcohol selection. One said, “A little hard to find but very fun! Host gave out various liquors such as beer, sangria, and even vodka,” highlighting how the hosts really make an effort to keep the party flowing.
The price point for what’s included is reasonable, especially considering the free entry to Duplex, which normally charges for cover. It’s a great way to combine a river cruise, drinks, music, and clubbing into one evening out—perfect if you’re after a memorable night with friends or fellow travelers.
On the flip side, the length of the cruise might not appeal to everyone, and some may find the crowd a little energetic or loud. If you prefer quieter evenings, this might not be your best fit. Also, due to the city noise curfew, the party at Duplex will be contained within a certain timeframe, so plan for that.
