My Warsaw Stag Do: Real Customer Review

Real Reviews: Sometimes the best way to choose a destination is to hear from someone who's been there. In this diary, one of our customers recounts a legendary weekend in Warsaw involving rage buggies, AK-47s, and a bungee jump off a bridge.

Poland is one of those destinations that comes up in conversation reasonably often. After all, there’s a reason it has become one of the most travelled-to places from the UK. However, the lads and I had never been, so when we started planning my stag do, a Warsaw stag weekend was the clear favourite.

Friday: Rage Buggies & Vodka

We flew early on Friday morning (6am departures are painful!). We dropped our bags at the hotel and headed straight for our first activity: Rage Buggies.

These little beauties were surprisingly nippy. All of us were soon zooming around the dirt track, seeing who could get the best time (and who could crash out most impressively). Keith took the win, but only just!

Back at the hotel, we cleaned up and started drinking. We had a Vodka Tasting session set up, where we tried a wide range of Polish vodkas. I was amazed at the difference in taste; I used to think all vodka was the same, but I was wrong. This set us up perfectly for our Guided Bar Crawl, where a local guide took us from bar to bar before leaving us at a nightclub we felt very at home in.

Saturday: Guns & Bungee Jumps

Saturday’s first activity was Firearms Shooting. Who hasn’t dreamed of picking up a gun like Arnie and seeing how good they are? Thanks to the laws in Poland, we got to fire weapons you’d never touch in the UK, including the legendary AK-47. I proved to be the superior marksman (beginners luck, surely).

We celebrated with a lunch of Pierogi (Polish dumplings—highly recommended!) before heading to my final surprise.

The lads had arranged for me to do a Bungee Jump. I can't adequately describe the terror of standing at the top of a bridge with elastic round my feet. But the jump itself was amazing. The rush as I fell was unlike anything I've ever felt.

The Verdict

That night, we went out unsupervised and had one of the best nights out you can imagine. We drank too much, ate too much, and laughed until it hurt.

If you are wondering whether a Warsaw stag do is the right idea for you – let me give you some advice. DO IT. Book it, and go now – you won’t regret it!
