These destinations offer unique experiences to enjoy your last unmarried days with friends. Here are 7 different stag and hen destinations!
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Known to be the city of freedom and fun, Amsterdam promises various types of entertainment for both ladies and gentleman. If you are looking for a boozy night-out, dancing until sunrise, and spending daylight hours visiting museums, then Amsterdam might be the ticket! Beside heading to the night clubs, and checking out the Van Gogh museum or Anne Frank House, you could throw your own boat party! See the city’s beautiful sights from the water, and discover the famous canals.
Davos, Switzerland
Despite not being the first city that may come to one’s mind as a stag destination, Davos is in fact very appealing to car enthusiasts. Set off on the journey of a lifetime through Swiss Alps, following in the tire tracks of the automotive greats of Top Gear. Select a Ferrari or Lamborghini, and stay in a luxurious hotel when you are off the road.
Cappadocia, Turkey
Fancy having your hen party in a Turkish museum with whirling Dervishes? The city of Cappadocia is a geological oddity, plucked from a fairytale. The Museum Hotel was built into ancient ruins, and designed by an antique collector. It is filled with relics dating back to the 16th century. Get a birds eye view of this ‘lunar landscape’, in a soaring hot air balloon!

How about throwing your hen or stag party in the middle of desert?

You could also request henna painting or shisha to surprise your friends.
