Hi guys

So me and 10 lads, aged 22-30 are all going on a stag in September

We want to go somewhere in Europe for 2-3 days

We are really liking Prague



Typical lad stuff, drink, clubs, paintballing etc.

But tbh, there may be better things to do?

My questions are.

Where is best to go?

What is the best way to book it? Book flights and hotel separately?

I know there are stag companys that can book it for you, but can be pretty expensive?


Any other Advice you can give ?

Thanks guys

    Advice

    If you are booking it in your name don't do it until you have all the money up front.

    Make sure you all behave on the flights.

    Make sure everyone has full travel insurance.

    Cheap? try Benidorm.
    If you go down to the woods today you better not go alone.

    So if you're "really liking Prague" why ask the question "where is best to go?"?

    Use sky scanner to see what flights are available what days.
    Make a decision and give everyone you bank details for them to transfer into by a date and book the flights in one go.
    Do similar with accom with somewhere like booking. Com

    Prague is good but stays are easy targets for people looking to make money! Hamburg, Riga, Vilnius, Malaga are all cheap enough when you get there. Or go off piste somewhere like poznan where a pint is still under a e in most bars

    I don’t suppose that it would fit your bill but you could pick a worse destination than Belfast. Plenty of lively pubs and fairly close. Finding hotel rooms could be an issue though as there aren’t enough.

    How on earth can anyone afford such stag trip?

    We are always told how the millennials cannot afford to save for a deposit on a house. I wonder why. :cool:

    Have a good read up about Valencia, easy to get to, great hotels, no rip off clubs, something for everyone happy ending or not, great food, good atmosphere. Warm to hot !
