Experience of the Year 2026: Meet the Winners

It was a close contest, and the results brought some exciting changes. The Experience of the Year 2026 competition has its winners, and we’re delighted to introduce them. Three categories defended last year’s top spot, while six others saw new favourites take first place. Let’s take a look.

Overall winner: Wind tunnel retains its crown

The wind tunnel once again soared to the top. The sensation of freefall without having to jump out of an aircraft has clearly won your hearts – not only among first-timers, but also those keen to experience it again. Just like last year, the overall title goes to the very same experience.

Airborne experience: Scenic balloon flight holds on

Peace, perspective and far-reaching views. The scenic balloon flight proved that a slower pace can be just as unforgettable, retaining first place in the Airborne category.

Adrenaline experience: Tandem skydive takes the title again

For adrenaline in its purest form, there is the tandem skydive. It successfully defended its title this year too.

Rising star of the year: Beauty day for women

The Rising Star of the Year category brought one of the biggest surprises. After last year's F4 Mygale Formula driving experience, this year the beauty day for women in Prague took the spotlight. It proves that a day of self-care is a gift people genuinely want.

Motoring: Lamborghini Huracán replaces skid-control training

The Motoring category saw a changing of the guard. Taking the lead from skid-control training with a points countdown is the Lamborghini Huracán driving experience at the Masaryk Circuit in Brno. Driving a high-performance supercar on this legendary circuit is a dream come true for many motorists.

Gourmet: Tasting menu at the Dancing House

A three-course menu was knocked off the notional gourmet throne by the Sky Bar & Restaurant five-course tasting menu at the Dancing House in Prague. Fine food, views across the Prague skyline and an iconic building are clearly an irresistible combination.

Sport: Via ferrata takes over from Gerlachovský štít

This year, the Sport category was won by via ferrata with climbing basics and an instructor. Climb Gerlach therefore hands the baton to an experience accessible even to those just starting out in climbing.

Relaxation: Beer spa with overnight stay

In the relaxation category, a Thai massage with argan oil was replaced by a beer spa with an overnight stay at a hotel. A soak, some relaxation, then straight to bed. A weekend escape that is hard to resist.

Unusual: Destruction therapy in a rage room

This year's winner in the Unusual category is destruction therapy in a rage room in Prague. Smash plates, a television or old furniture and let the stress go? It replaces last year's winner, Beekeeper for a Day, with an experience that is the complete opposite of calm.

Team Building at a Bee Farm

When people think of team building, bowling, a get-together at a restaurant or brewery, or a barbecue usually comes to mind. But we decided to take a slightly different route – to visit some of the hardest workers in the world.

Our journey took us to a bee farm in Úštěk. And because we at Adrop love trying out experiences for ourselves, it was clear that this time we’d be beekeepers for a few hours.
