    Hello

    Just looking for some advice on stag parties in Europe, maybe Germany somewhere? We have been to Hamburg before (a few times) so prob want to rule that out. Also looking for cheap enough option to fly to.... I know I cant have my cake and eat it but here's hoping!

    Has anyone ever been to Bremen or Dusseldorf on a stag?

    Don't really know about Germany. If you are considering Holland, i'm dutch myself, avoid Amsterdam and go to Utrecht. The people there are much nicer, the city is much prettier. And Utrecht has a red light district aswell, one of the first things where people think off with Holland apparently, just like coffee shops. The fact that i was born in Utrecht helps promoting the city :)

    Munich would be good, out side of Oktoberfest its should be a bit cheaper and easer to get rooms

    krakow is another good destination

    one of the guys went to amsterdam im pretty sure on a stags. he was very impressed with it.

    munich is absolutely great for partying (it has an area with i guess 20 clubs and on fridays you have to pay only 5€ to enter all of them)
    http://www.kultfabrik.de/home.htm (just in german I'm afraid)
    and it's quite cheap to fly there with aerlingus (just booked a flight munich-dublin for 50e)
    berlin is apparently also great...

    Thanks a mill for all the advice. Had never thought of Utrecht. I must check that out. Munich also sounds like a good option. It all depends on flight prices I guess. I think the stag is looking like early August now

    avoid amsterdam. but as rua say utrecht is great. berlin is decent but i went with my mum and sister so it might be 'funner' with the lads,

    Berlin is great. Do a bit of research - where to go for food and drink - before you go.

    There is also loads to do during the day.

    Enjoy!

    +1

    Cologne also has a huge lap dancing club which is always a laugh on a stag. Plus the Nordschleife is only an hour away if you drive fast enough....

    A few of us went over to Krakow two years ago for a week and drank to our hearts content, great place, dirt cheap (beer, food, accommodation) and it's the only city ive ever been to that does a decent kebab. They do them on every corner and but don't taste like the ****e we get here. Perfect for when your staggering back to the hotel at 7am with a bottle of vodka purchased from the nearest 24hr offy.

    Went to prague a while ago, it was cheaper than a weekend in dublin.

    +1 for Krakow. Been there myself a few years ago and two of my friends are just back from a stag there last weekend. Great city. Perfect for a Stag-everythings cheap and the women are hot, what more do ye want!

    But with a sleaze factor that's gone through the roof. Last time I was there the main street was full of prozzies who only looked around 16, at 9:30pm of a sunday night.

    Krakow is a great spot though. Amsterdam is a ripoff, but hugely enjoyable. Never been out in Utrecht, but I had a wander around it during the day and it looks nice. Big student city, so could be lots of fun.

    Yeah - Prague is ruined by the gangs of Romas who pretend to be prozzies but actually just want to pick your pocket while they feel your balls and would probably slit your throat if you were dumb enough to go away with them.

    Well there is a fair bit of sleaze in prague but its a stag weekend after all. We had lots of cheap drink, fab apartment for the weekend, etc so good weekend to be had there

    I'm also trying to organise a stag in Germany, been to loads of stags in the past so our locations are now limited. Pretty happy to go with either Frankfurt or Dusseldorf, but can't find out what the crack is with strip clubs in dusseldorf.....can anyone tell me if there is any, if so where?
