Pragulic

Put aside all bias about homelessness, and get yourself ready for a journey you’ve never experienced before! ‘Pragulic’ offers unconventional street tours around Prague led by homeless tour guides! The enterprise tackles the existing stigma around homelessness – by training homeless people as tour guides and providing paid employment afterwards, meanwhile giving the guides a chance to share their life story on which the tours are based. These experiences allow them to gain motivation and self-confidence, and gradually integrate back into society and seize the opportunities they were lacking in these stigmatised conditions. Beside street tours ‘Pragulic’ also offers team building activities for companies, 24 hour homeless challenge, online tours and much more. If you wish to support their noble cause even more, you can also purchase different gifts in their e-shop.
