Riga is one of those destinations where some of your friends may have visited before, but very few of them will remember which country it is in. (It’s Latvia, in case you were wondering). This sort of forgetfulness is common after you have been on a Riga stag do, as the cheap beer and excellent atmosphere often lead to an overly indulgent and exceedingly entertaining weekend away. That is exactly what Riga is always so desperate to provide.
There is a huge amount to do here, whether it’s taking part in planned activities or just wandering around and taking in the beautiful scenery and friendly atmosphere of this oft-forgotten but amazing city. It is the perfect balance of Eastern European charm and wild partying.
To ensure you get the most out of your weekend without the hassle of organising it all yourself, we have curated some incredible packages that combine accommodation with the city's top activities.
By far our most popular option is the Shooting in Riga Package. This classic itinerary includes central accommodation, a guided bar crawl to get your bearings, and the legendary firearms shooting experience where you can fire AK-47s. It finishes with a visit to a top strip club, ticking every box for a traditional stag weekend.
If you want to know what a real weekend here looks like, check out our Real Stag Diaries 'My Riga Stag Do'. Read how our customers tackled the Olympic Bobsleigh, the Russian Prison Experience, and the legendary nightlife.
There are plenty of accommodation options for your Riga stag do to take advantage of at this hugely popular destination. Hotels of all shapes and sizes are eager for groups to book in and will bend over backwards to provide everything you could possibly want.
We ensure all our accommodation is centrally located so you don't waste time and money on taxis. In fact, one of our most popular hotels is one that has a strip club in the hotel itself! This is so popular that the last time we went there on a company trip, one unnamed member of the team didn’t leave the hotel for more than twenty-four hours! Whether you want luxury or a budget crash pad, we have you covered.
From an activity perspective, all of the more traditional weekend activities you might consider are here and obviously very popular (Go-Karting, Zorb Football, etc.), but the real attraction for your Riga stag weekend is the number of activities available that are NOT available in the UK.
The number one option is the Firearms Shooting Package, which is absolutely out of this world. You’ll get to go hands-on with a wide range of weaponry that you would never get the chance to shoot in this country (including the iconic AK-47). You’ll be shooting side by side with your mates to see who is the best shot – after all, what good is a stag do without a little competition?
Another type of activity that is popular outside of the UK is, of course, the Stag Prank. In Riga, you can arrange all sorts of things to stitch up the stag. You can go for the traditional Stag Arrest, where (from his perspective) he gets suddenly arrested for no good reason, thrown in the back of a van, and then delivered to a strip club. Or, you can pick something new like the Rabid Dog Chase (don’t worry, they aren’t really rabid!), where he will be hunted down by a trained police dog while wearing a protective suit.
For those who love the water, Fly Boarding is hugely popular. This is where you take to the water with a jet-powered board attached to your feet and do your best to fly across the water without crashing head-first into the drink. If you fancy something else a bit different, why not go Bobsledding on an Olympic-level track?
There is also the Beer Bike – a traditional activity for many Eastern European weekends where you’ll get to see the sights of the city while pedalling what is essentially a giant bar around as you drink a pint or three! The list is epic, check out our unique Riga stag activity guide for some of the most obscure and crazy Riga stag activities
Where to start with the nightlife on a Riga stag do? The number of bars and clubs that are available for you to visit is huge, and they are all great value for money. They will give you some of the best times you’ve ever had while out drinking.
If you like the idea of a local showing you around and clueing you in to the best places available, why not book a Guided Bar Crawl? We have plenty of these available, and they are always hugely popular as they incorporate guides, free drinks, and some of the best nightlife you’ll ever experience.
Going out drinking isn’t the only thing to do in the evenings. Depending on what you like (or are willing to try), you can watch some Semi-Naked Wrestling (which is as much fun as it sounds), visit a Dominatrix Show if you want to embrace your kinkier side, or spend the night in a prison with a full-on Russian Prison Experience. This is perfect if you want to give the stag a bit of a rough time on his last night of freedom.

Flights are very reasonably priced indeed – just one more reason that heading to Latvia could be the best decision you’ve ever made. Getting from the airport to the city centre is nice and easy, and we do recommend adding Private Transfers to your quote, as they are well worth the money for a seamless arrival.
