Discover a wide range of excursions and experiences.

First, choose what you would like to experience and see with us. We recommend starting with a guided tour and then following up with one of our active experiences. Among the most popular experiences is glassblowing at the furnace, with the option to create your own glass product.

Don’t forget to also check out the events calendar, where you’ll find exclusive full-day events hosted by us at the glassworks.

We enable online purchase of e-tickets no earlier than 60 days before the date. An exception may be made for one-day thematic events open to the public, for which we may commence online sales earlier. Please note that tickets purchased cannot be refunded or exchanged.

Choose the date of your visit

By clicking the ‘Reserve’ button, you will be directed to the reservation system. In the calendar, you will see a list of individual events and can choose a suitable date and start time for your adventure.

In the calendar’s top left corner, you will find the option to display all tours and experiences we offer for that day, or you can narrow down your selection to a specific program you are interested in.

If you cannot find your desired tour or experience on the selected day in the calendar, it means we do not offer it on that particular day, and we would appreciate it if you could choose another day. If you are making a reservation too early, it might not appear in the calendar, and we kindly ask for your patience.

Reserve your spots for selected events

After clicking on the ‘Tickets’ button for a specific date, you will select and add tickets to the basket for each visitor.

For purchasing tickets for multiple different events at once, you can add tickets for additional events (e.g., guided tour, Glassblowing Experience) to your basket, in addition to the already selected tickets for the first event, using the ‘Add more items’ button.

For some types of tours and events, you can make an online reservation with the option of paying on-site or directly purchase e-tickets online. For certain types of experiences, only online purchase of e-tickets is available. The current options will always be displayed in the shopping basket.

If you are planning to visit us as a group, with 10 or more people, please contact us via email. We will be happy to confirm your group reservation.

We truly have to thank you for the wonderful day spent with you and your employees, who showed great patience and deep knowledge of the craft. We learned a lot, and everyone was very satisfied —it even inspired them to return to your glassworks with their families. Of course, we also did some enthusiastic shopping at your company store.

Last Saturday, we had the pleasure of visiting your glassworks. I would like to thank you for the amazing experience, both at the hot shop and the grinding workshop. I also want to express my gratitude for delivering our pieces from the hot shop and for the individual approach – the perfectly packed ornaments have already arrived. We had a wonderful time with you, and I believe it won’t be the last. Wishing you a beautiful holiday season and all the best in the New Year!

I would like to thank you once again for the opportunity to visit your glassworks. We really enjoyed both the tour and, especially, the two workshops. I even bought and brought back home to Moravia two beautiful large vases (from your sister glassworks).

Thank you again for a very professional approach and a very beneficial workshop! We would like to thank the two lady guides and the glassworks workers who took care of the children. We will definitely recommend the program further.

An educational excursion especially for children. At school they learn about glassworks and don't know what it's all about. The tour, combined with blowing and cutting, is an experience for both children and adults.

We enjoyed the tour with our colleagues as teambuilding, because you will not find bigger heartthrobs than the local employees in the world. A must is to try and cut your own glass.

From today's tour of Rückl, we were thrilled! The very kind ladies in the shop who willingly advised us on everything, the great guide, and at the end, we tried a glass cutting. We will definitely come back; it's an experience! ✨
