Sofia is not a city that everyone thinks of when you are considering a Stag Do. In fact, let's be honest, it's a city that a lot of people don’t even know where it is. Well for those of you who didn’t know (and those who were pretending they did to seem clever), Sofia is the capital city of Bulgaria and an amazing city full of cultural and historical sites. More importantly for us, however, is the fact that Sofia Stag Dos have rapidly grown in popularity over the last few years, and all of that growth has been for very good reason.
This city has everything you’d need for a successful stag do. It is interesting, it is full of exciting things to see and do. It is great value for money (having been voted Europe’s most affordable capital city to visit in 2013) and the nightlife is out of this world. The question shouldn’t really be “Why should I have a Sofia Stag Do” – instead it should be “How can I book a Sofia Stag Do right now?”
Let’s start with the boring but essential questions. How do we get from the UK to Sofia? By plane of course! Direct flights to Sofia are available from a selection of airports and airlines up and down the country, and the flight is only about three hours, so you won’t be spending hours upon hours travelling to your Sofia Stag Do.
Once you arrive, you’ll have plenty of easy methods to transport yourselves into the city centre. Whether you’ve included private transfers within your Sofia Stag Do package or whether you just want to jump on a bus or the metro, it won’t be long before you are in the city centre, unpacking at your accommodation and heading out to investigate the city.
Accommodation in Sofia is central and plentiful, with lots of options available to you. This is great, as it means you can tailor your accommodation types to suit your desires and your budgets. If you want to live the life of luxury, then posh hotel options can be provided to you. Alternatively, if you are just looking for somewhere that is great value for money and has a bed you can sleep in, there are plenty of options for those as well.
Sofia is full of things to do and has a wide range of activities available throughout the year. It does have a great selection of seasonal activities, so no matter what time of year your Sofia Stag Do is planned for, you’ll be able to take advantage of these options.
During the spring and summer months, the most popular activities tend to be the outdoor activities that you can take part in while enjoying the beautiful summer weather. White Water Rafting is one such activity, where you and the lads will find yourselves in an inflatable raft tackling your way through some genuine rapids to see if you can make it through. Other popular summer activities include Wakeboarding (which is always exciting) and even Bungee jumping! That last one may not be for everyone, but it does give you a huge adrenaline rush when you take part, so whether the entire Sofia Stag Do party has a go or whether you just all watch the Stag as his treat, it’s definitely worth considering.
In the winter months the entire city has a different feel, and there is one activity that stands out more than others – the snowmobiles. You’d never get to ride one of these in the UK (when was the last time we had any significant amount of snow for more than a day?) so why wouldn’t you take advantage of your Sofia Stag Do to allow you to experience this exciting and adrenaline-fuelled activity?
If you couple these options with activities that exist all year round such as escape rooms, Go-Karting and the always popular firearms shooting, and I’m sure you are beginning to see why a Sofia Stag Do is one of the most perfect options you could ever choose.
And we’ve not even mentioned the nightlife yet! Sofia is full of brilliant nightspots that are just dying for you to visit and enjoy a drink or five. The even better news is that the average pint costs just over a pound, so you won’t break the bank on your big night out either. If you really want to push the boat out for your Sofia Stag Do night out, why not book the Absinthe night? This bar crawl will sort the men from the boys, as it includes shots of Absinthe as you travel from bar to bar – do you think you can handle it?
As well as all the bars, there are plenty of restaurants, casinos, gentlemen’s clubs and nightclubs available to you throughout your weekend away, which shows once again just how good a Sofia Stag Do can be.
