Throughout the first month of the program, we offer a wide range of activities and team-building events designed to introduce you to European culture in a fun and engaging way. Whether you're interested in escape games, karaoke sessions, laser games, barbecues, or simply sightseeing and shopping for souvenirs in Prague, we have something for everyone.
