Prague - a cheap paradise for British stag tourists
[07-09-2005] By Ian Willoughby
Since the fall of the Iron Curtain, Prague has become one of the most visited tourist destinations in Europe. But in the last few years the Czech capital has also become hugely popular with British stag groups, large groups of men celebrating some husband-to-be's last weekend of freedom, or just here to have a good time in a city which has earned a dubious reputation as "the Amsterdam of the East".
Stand on Wenceslas Square on any Saturday evening and you will see lots of British stag groups. And they openly admit they've come to Prague for the cheap booze - and the cheap ***.
Young English men: "There's fifteen of us in various places, all doing the same thing - all in strip clubs. Beautiful women, beautiful women...culture, beautiful blonde-haired culture. We like all that."

Scottish man: "Listen, it's a beautiful city, and the architecture is fantastic. But what we're saying is, it's built up a culture now that's a stag weekend...and people enjoying themselves. Cheap beer, it's easy to get to - two hours from the UK. Fantastic, fantastic."
Scottish man: "I've been to Amsterdam maybe eight, nine times - kept saying I'd go to Prague...here now...cheap as chips! Cheap as chips!"
English man: "We had some drinks, but mainly ***."
English man: "It's OK if you only have 'hand massage'!"
Tom Kenyon: "If you enter 'Prague stag' or something like that on Google you'll get at least 100,000 hits, and there'll be at least 100 companies there you can choose from." says Tom Kenyon of one of the biggest stag weekend organisers, Prague Pissup.
