But not all of them are reliable, and taking a&nbsp;taxi can sometimes turn into a&nbsp;bad experience. For tourists especially, it\u2019s risky to get into a&nbsp;taxi waiting on the street\u2014often the meter shows an absurdly high fare that will leave your head spinning. Rides offered by individuals through mobile apps are also frequently unreliable. We\u2019ve also recorded cases where a&nbsp;taxi driver made homophobic remarks or was outright rude to queer clients. There\u2019s still room for improvement in Prague.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block\n  block--core-paragraph\n  block--align-none\n      \">\n  \n<p>That\u2019s why this year, the Prague Pride Festival is entering into a&nbsp;partnership with the <strong>Bolt<\/strong> ride-hailing app. All drivers who will be operating during the festival will be pre-trained in matters of respect. We kindly ask that you treat them with respect as well.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block\n  block--core-paragraph\n  block--align-none\n      \">\n  \n<p><strong>Promo codes for rides and Bolt Drive<\/strong> will be available in Pride Village and on Saturday at Letn\u00e1. We chose Bolt because, besides offering customer-friendly prices, it is also working to improve the culture of urban transport. For example, it offers a&nbsp;number of safety features that many people don\u2019t yet know about. Have you heard about driver authentication, discreet emergency assistance, ride-sharing and trip monitoring, or in-app recording and safety codes? Bolt introduced all these features to help prevent incidents, allow the support team to respond quickly in crisis situations, and give you peace of mind on your journey.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block\n  block--core-heading\n  block--align-none\n      \">\n  \n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Own Car<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block\n  block--core-paragraph\n  block--align-none\n      \">\n  \n<p>If you don\u2019t have a&nbsp;permanent residence in Prague, parking can be a&nbsp;hassle. The city uses a&nbsp;parking zone system, and non-residents can only park in selected spaces (mostly paid). Plus, you can get stuck in heavy traffic, and that\u2019s the last thing you want on your way to a&nbsp;festival event. We definitely don\u2019t recommend using a&nbsp;car for personal transport around Prague.
