Krakow Stag Do

Cheap beer alone doesn’t sell a city for stag do’s. You need something more, and Krakow has it by the bucketload. There are masses of great stag do activities here, and there’s also stacks of cool things to do if you just fancy wandering around the city for an afternoon. Allow us to fill you in. 

The Best Stag Do Ideas in Krakow

1. Shooting Experience

Get ready for an epic activity that you could never do at home! Your adrenaline will be pumping from start to finish as you and your crew get your hands on a range of guns including a Glock, UZI, AK, Magnum calibre revolver, pump-action shotgun and more. You’ll have a blast (literally!) as you ready, aim and fire at a range of fun and challenging targets. Feel the power, embrace the thrill and channel your inner action hero as you fire away at the coolest arsenal in town. Full instruction is given, as well as a safety briefing, so anyone can give it a go. Whether you're a sharpshooter or just want to make some noise, Krakow's gun ranges are the ultimate playground for an unforgettable stag do.

2. Go Karting

Rev up your day out with this adrenaline-fueled classic, go karting! Buckle up as you and the lads hit a top-notch indoor go-karting centre, ready to unleash your inner speed demon. Tear around the tracks, battling for pole position and bragging rights in this epic race against your mates. The centre’s staff will show you the ropes then it’s off to you to put your pedal to the metal and race around the track, reaching speeds of up to 40 miles per hour. The winner will get a bottle of bubbly to savour the victory. Inject some friendly competition by creating cheeky forfeits for the loser. Just make sure it isn’t you!

3. Fake Stag Arrest

It’s time to pull off the ultimate stag stitch up, the fake arrest prank that’ll have the groom-to-be second-guessing his last moments of freedom! The groom will be handcuffed by an actor posing as a policeman, thinking he's bound for a police station and begging for his freedom. But he’s in for a surprise because he’ll instead be whisked away to a room where a sultry stripper awaits, ready to give him a striptease he'll never forget. Keep those poker faces on, lads, as the stag goes from shock to sheer delight. Snap a pic of that priceless expression, and then raise a toast with a cold beer because we all know that laughter is the best stag party medicine!

4. Bar Crawl

Krakow's nightlife is off the charts and the best way to explore it is with a bar crawl, led by a local expert. You and your crew will conquer the hottest spots like the Old Town's bustling Market Square or the trendy Kazimierz district, where every cobblestone street hides a hidden gem. Unleash the stag party spirit as you explore diverse pubs, vibrant clubs and quirky bars.  Your guide will take you to a range of watering holes so there’s something for everyone. They’ll even include a few drinks and shots to get the party going. Krakow's unique blend of historic charm and modern vibes ensures an unforgettable night out.

5. Party Boat

Set sail for an unforgettable night out onboard a party boat cruise on the Wisla River! You’ll get two hours of non-stop fun, cruising past stunning city sights, dancing to the beats of an onboard DJ, and, the best part, an unlimited open bar! Yes, you heard that right; you’ll get unlimited beer, rum, vodka, gin and mixers to keep the party vibes flowing. Whether your dance moves are smooth as silk or hilariously out there, this boat has seen it all. Just let your hair down with your mates and have fun! As you disembark, the night is far from over as your group scores entry to a banging nightclub nearby.

6. Bubble Football

Kick your stag do into high gear with bubble football where footie meets sumo wrestling with hilarious results! You’ll each wear a big, inflatable zorb, rendering your arms useless and your balance all over the place. It's a recipe for laughs as you and your mates collide at full speed, bumping, bouncing and rolling around the pitch without a care in the world. An event coordinator will explain the rules, keep score and make sure there’s no cheating. Full-throttle collisions while tackling aren’t just encouraged; they're the name of the game. You can give it some welly because the bubble’s got you covered, taking some of the impact. It's football like you've never played before!

7. Strippers

Gazing upon gorgeous strippers is a rite of passage no stag should miss, a tradition that adds the perfect sizzle to your last night of freedom. We won't argue with tradition! You and the groom-to-be will soak in the view, revelling in the sight of beautiful ladies strutting their stuff, undressing slowly to tease and please you. With entry to one of Krakow's premium lap dancing clubs, stunning babes and a fully-stocked bar at your fingertips, prepare for a legendary evening where what happens in the strip club stays in the strip club! You can even hire a sexy stripper to come to your accommodation to put on a private show, away from prying eyes.

8. Paintballing

Paintballing is the quintessential activity for the young at heart stag! It’ll help you all to unleash your inner action hero, letting loose in the great outdoors and splattering everyone and everything you see with paint! Krakow offers some awesome paintballing locations, ensuring barrels full of laughs and high-octane action. What kind of paintball player are you? Are you the tactical mastermind or will you just run in all guns blazing? Whatever your style, make covering the groom-to-be in paint your top mission! You could even get him to wear fancy dress so that he sticks out like a sore thumb, the perfect target!

9. Beer Tasting

Are you and the lads beer fans? Of course, you are! Embark on a beer-fueled adventure where laughter, drinks and learning combine! You and the lads will be guided by an English-speaking beer guru, hopping from pub to pub, sampling Krakow's finest brews. Forget the boring lectures; at a top-notch venue, a professional beer tasting host introduces you to a stellar lineup of brews, spilling the beans on history and tasting notes. It's all about fun and your beer tasting is as chilled as the drinks, letting you relax, enjoy laughs with the guys and maybe get a bit merry by the session's end. Cheers to that!

10. Escape Room

This challenge is a real game changer! If you and the lads are craving some brain-bending, team fun, you’ve got to try an escape room. Locked in a room, you'll tackle multiple clues and puzzles, unleashing your inner detectives to make a grand escape. It's the ultimate icebreaker, forcing your stag squad to communicate, collaborate and crack the codes together. You’ll need to work quickly because you’ll only have one hour to hunt for clues and solve all the puzzles. Unleash your inner Sherlock Holmes and get to work! Once you’re out, there’s a well deserved beer waiting for each of you.

More Krakow Stag Do Tips

We’ll start with some of the action-packed stag experiences that you can find in Krakow and which many of our groups love. To begin with, there’s White Water Rafting, two hours of wet and wild fun that will leave you buzzing, and hungry no doubt. 

Another of our best stag activities in Krakow is a trip to a Shooting Range. Here you can live out your fantasies blasting away at the targets with a Glock, an AK47, and a pump action shotgun. 

If you want to take it easy, we’d suggest a boozy River Cruise one afternoon, taking in the sights along the Vistula, with a well-stocked bar onboard. We can also arrange for a sexy stripper to join you, if that’s your thing. It is, isn’t it, be honest.

Another unique stag do activity in Krakow that we love is the Lost Souls Exploration Experience. Think of it like a haunted house crossed with an escape room. Groups of six are sent off with a flashlight to navigate 12 rooms (some of which are locked and you need to find the key to get free), while actors interact with you depending on the level of intensity you’ve booked. There’s nothing silly about Lost Souls, it’s genuinely scary with hacked-off-limbs everywhere, blood-soaked furniture, and some pretty extreme stuff if you opt for the full experience. It takes around 30 minutes, so something fun to do inbetween other activities perhaps. 

Krakow is known for its cafe culture - there’s plenty of good coffee to be found around the city if you need your beans roasted in the morning before you can get going. And it also has a thriving jazz scene. You’ll find lots of bars with live performances - U Muniaka near St. Mary’s Basilica is one of the most popular jazz clubs in Krakow.

For a chilled morning, you can explore Krakow’s attractive Botanic Gardens at the Jagiellonian University - an ideal spot if you’re planning a summer stag and it’s a hot day. Alternatively, head over to the riverside Forum Przestrzenie for some day-drinking in what is definitely one of the trendiest venues in Krakow. Once a rather ugly hotel, it has now been (sort-of) transformed with the addition of deckchairs and bean bags, graffiti, and DJs, into a place where young people gather in their hundreds to party. Come for a late breakfast, or pizza in the afternoons with craft beer on the side.

Krakow has some amazing art galleries if you’re after a bit of culture, especially the Poster Gallery. Polish film posters are renowned for their design, so they make for a good souvenir of your Krakow stag weekend. There’s also a fair few talented street artists around the city, who have created some massive, attention-grabbing murals, so keep your eyes open when walking around. 

Lastly, we can’t leave you without mentioning Cybermachina. This gaming pub is a brilliant spot to while away an afternoon, with retro consoles and loads of board games. If it’s raining outside and you don’t have any other plans for a few hours, or you’re nursing filthy hangovers, you’ll be among friends here.
