It's not just stag parties choosing abroad for their stag weekends, hen parties are also getting on flights with a massive 35% of flights taken by 20 - 45 year old ladies, were hen parties going abroad.

Top 10 Activities Perfect For A Stag Do

Image
There are activities and there are stag do activities, what's the difference I hear you ask?

OK, let me explain myself...

I personally think that a stag do activity needs to include something which will give you something to talk about in the pub later, it also needs to either scary or hilarious and most of all, it needs to be memorable for the stag.

So find below our take on unusual stag do ideas currently available:

Handcuffed To A Dwarf In the days of total political correctness getting the stag handcuffed to a dwarf and going out on a bar tour for the shock value is a huge winner with groups who just love this stag do prank.
