Discover the world’s first Corruption Tour
Pretty much all of us are familiar with the corruption phenomenon: it is as old as the world. Those of you who have never been invited to give a “symbolic” cash amount in order to get away with more severe fine when driving above the speed limits or who have not heard of similar cases, raise your hands and tell us which city do you live in. Arguably, corruption is undermining social and political structures from the bottom to the top, worldwide. It is safe to say that this deformed power structure is omnipresent and omnipotent. So powerful corruption is that it can even… make you laugh.
At least this is what an ingenious team of young urban explorers from the ex-socialist country of Czech Republic think. They have come up with the idea that corruption can be turned in to an adventurous experience for good. They offer one-day trips, including a selection of corruption-related experiences and a vast list for sightseeing.
Crony (Czech currency) Safari, Hospital on the Edge of the Law, Spa & Badness: these are only few of the topics of the Corruption tour. Available upon preliminary booking, taking place once or twice in a month, the Prague Corruption tours will take you to a never-ending journey on the vicious way of the power of money.
