Madrid – Good for bars, clubs and cheap taxi fares. The city offers 613 bars and cab prices starting at just £2.26. Madrid is a great choice for sun-worshipping stags too.
Las Vegas – While this sin city may be further afield, the extravagant activities and guaranteed sunshine sees stags making the long trip to enjoy an unforgettable night out.
Barcelona – With a mixture of city and beach vibes, Barcelona scores highly on the stag index.
Moscow – The Russian Capital may have a high chance of rain, but this is offset by the price of a pint with stags expected to pay only £1.40 for a beer.
