I 1713 vendte pesten tilbage til Prag. De fleste læger huskede pludselig nødsituationer andre steder. Alexandr Schamsky, 28, og tilsyneladende mangler denne overlevelsesinstinkt, blev - behandlede patienter, dokumenterede kaoset, levede på en eller anden måde for at fortælle historien. Tre århundreder senere følger du hans præcise fodspor med en Vejleder i fuld pesten læge kostume: spidsmaske, kappe kappe, læder taske og alt. På 90 minutter vil du høre fem konkurrerende teorier om, hvad der forårsagede plagen, smage en (moderne, harmløs) pille mod plagen, lugte historisk lavendelolie og passere et af Europas ældste hospitaler - opstår med intet værre end en nyfundet mistanke om avocados. Rigtig historie. Rigtig karakter. Nul reel pest. Udgivet i New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Vogue og Forbes. Egnet til alle aldre.
Mød din pestlæge uden for det smukt indrettede House of the Golden Well, der blev bygget i 1715 for at fejre pesten. Mød Alexander Schamsky, lær om pesten hellige Sebastian og Rochus, og find ud af, hvorfor tre liter hvidløg øl om dagen blev betragtet som solid medicinsk rådgivning.
Træd ind i en af Prags mest atmosfæriske gårdhaver - kun 20 meter fra turistmængderne, men følelsen af et helt andet århundrede. Lær, hvordan de rige undslap plagen (det gør de altid), hvordan almindelige familier blev Låst ind i deres egne hjem af bevæbnede natvagter, og hvordan Schamsky endte med at blive læge mod alle odds.
Få kendskab til de to typer af pest - bubonic og lungebetændelse - herunder symptomer, overlevelsesrater og den overraskende avocado-lignende natur af en bubo. Mød pesten læge kostume tæt på, herunder den berømte beaked maske og dens temmelig prangende luft filtreringssystem.
Oplev, hvorfor det jødiske samfund i Prag klarede sig betydeligt bedre under pesten - og hvad det fortæller os om hygiejne, ferskvand og farerne ved at kaste affald ud af vinduer. Også et kort møde med Kafka, der, ligesom pesten, dukker op overalt i Prag, uanset om du vil have det eller ej.
Gå forbi det ældste aktive hospital i Europa og mød en anden glemt helt: Celestine Opitz, kirurgen, der udførte den første vellykkede operation under fuld narkose i 1847. Patienten vågnede, alle fejrede, og så døde patienten. Men stadig - fremskridt. Lær om rottefluen, Yersinia Pestis, og få din pille mod pest.
Afslut din rejse i det rolige kloster fra det 13. århundrede, hvor Prags allerførste pest tilfælde blev rapporteret. Lær om alternativ middelaldermedicin, hvorfor lavendel holdt lopperne væk, og hvad der i sidste ende skete med Alexander Schamsky. Turen afsluttes med et gruppefoto og et digt - dels middelalderligt, dels metalband, helt uforglemmeligt.
For at få fuld refusion skal du afbestille mindst 24 timer før det planlagte afgangstidspunkt.

What an amazing tour! Our guide David was a really fun storyteller and managed to keep us all invested during the entire tour - including the kids. You can really tell so much passion and work was put into this project. What the team does by bringing these forgotten or less known stories to the general public isn't just extremely interesting, it's also so so important for history preservation! If you have the chance and find the topic even slightly interesting, definitely book it, I can't recommend it enough! One of my favorite memories from my Prague trip for sure
Hello 231anyaa, Thanks so much for such a detailed review. Very pleased to read your feedback. We hope to see you in our tour or maybe in our storytelling training, David & Your plague doctors and nightwatchmen of Prague
This tour was absolutely amazing!! Aside from learning more about this interesting topic, we were able to pass by a lot of notable Prague landmarks right at sunset. It was such a beautiful evening stroll packed full of riveting trivia. Maria was super personable, engaging, and knowledgeable about the topic. She had a great sense of humor! We had a few kids on our tour, and she went out of her way to make them feel included, which I thought was so sweet. Maria is definitely one of the best tour guides I've ever had! She even let us take photos with her in her plague doctor costume at the end. I highly recommend booking this tour during your stay in Prague.
