The 800-year-old Latvian city of Riga sits on the Baltic Coast, combining beautiful medieval architecture with lively, modern development. The Baltic capital cities have become a popular tourist destination since the fall of communism, with visitors heading to check out these beautiful medieval cities from all over the world.

South of Riga is Vilnius, Lithuania which is the European Capital of Culture in 2009. Surrounded by hills, it is one of largest cities in Europe and is rich in art and history. Tallinn, Estonia is much further north of Riga. Its industrial and cultural routes have grown thanks to its seaport, giving the capital solid links with Western Europe. Surrounded by palaces and quaint cobbled streets there is plenty to do and see, while being one of the regions party capitals, with a wealth of pubs and bars. But when you want the ultimate stag weekend in Eastern Europe, Riga is the place to be in.

Whether you visit in the breathtaking winter or come in the summer, where the days are long with a whole host of beach and outdoor parties, Riga is the place to be. Visually it’s beautiful. There are many buildings to see around the old town. There are parks, markets, churches and forests, but Riga also has a feisty side. One of the reasons that Riga is so popular with stag weekends is that there are such a variety of things to do.

There are many activities available during the day and most of them are perfect to help the stag party bond and get in the mood for fun: creating lots of naughty and nice memories of a stags last weekend as a free man. Pistol shooting is a firm favourite, where all the blokes can get their hands on guns that aren’t available in the UK, like the Russian Makarov and the Glock 9mm – perfect if you fancy playing and being Arnie or Stallone. You can also bring out everyone’s competitive side with an afternoon of Go-Carting or Clay Pigeon Shooting. For something completely different you can go Bobsledding on the longest track in Europe – guaranteed to get your adrenaline pumping and to take your breath away.

In Riga, you can mix a party atmosphere with pure relaxation. A sauna party is the perfect stag evening. What could be a more perfect way of combining drink and hot girls who beat you with dried birch branches? And if you fancy a more traditional stag evening then there are many sexy stripper clubs and bars to choose from with hot Latvian girls performing a range of table and pole dances.

With beer so cheap you can’t go wrong. When you can buy more than double the amount of beer for the same price in England, there is no reason to go anywhere else. But there’s not only the booze, you can get cigarettes, food, taxis and other essentials at extremely cheap prices. Finally, Riga Aqua Park is the perfect way to relax and recover from those hangovers. With a poolside bar you can drink at in the water, and a Jacuzzi, add some fun to the experience with a ride down the tubes and slides! Riga has it all to make your stag weekend truly unforgettable.
