One of Eastern Europe’s big stag do hitters, Krakow is a city of many sides, from Old Town’s spiky medieval architecture to Kazimierz’s otherworldly chintzy charm. Krakow is one of the most visited cities in the world for stag weekends, thanks to its low drink prices and incredible selection of drinking establishments. Kazimierz’s low-lit cellar pubs are a particular highlight, the perfect place to sample the local ales and of course, that Polish standard-issue, vodka.
The Plac Nowy, Old Town and Kazimierz areas of the city make jumping from watering hole to watering hole is a simple feat. If you want to go out and see the authentic Krakow you should also pay a visit to one of the city’s remaining “Milk Bars”, which were founded when Krakow was a communist stronghold. They are cafeteria style restaurants where you can get a meal for as little as £2 and the food is a mix of stews and dumplings which are delicious for the more intrepid traveller. The Stag Company has also teamed up with some of the city’s leading activity providers to ensure that your Krakow stag do has a packed itinerary and is a smash hit with all of your party.
Did you know? According to legend, Krakow was founded named by an ancient ruler called Krak, who defeated a ravenous dragon before building the city. Mythical.
