Why can't I just plan and arrange this myself?
There's no reason why you can't - it might take you a while, though, and planning a group weekend the DIY way does have its risks. We take the hassle and uncertainty out of finding a great, centrally located hotel and will show you the bars and clubs that are sure to please everyone in your group. Plus, we can arrange those surprise extras --- such as entertainment especially for the hen & Stag Weekends - which will make your weekend legendary.
Will we get stuck with other Stag & Hen tours?
Of course not. You always get your own itinerary that is unique to you and your group.
Does my visit have to be over a weekend? Can't I come mid-week?
You can arrange your trip for any time of the week.
Can I book my trip for extra days?
You can come for as long as you like, we do one night packages and if its just an evening meal and a night club your after, that’s no problem either.
Do you handle air tickets as well?
Yes we do, however we need full payment in advance when booking Airline tickets for you.
What type of bars and clubs will you take us to?
We pride ourselves on knowing where the hot bars and clubs are in each city. We have conducted tons of field research ( tough job but someone’s got to do it !!) and we will take you to the places we enjoy the most. We never accept kick-backs from restaurants or bars/clubs which allows us to take you to places based solely on the merit.
How many people can I bring? Is there a minimum?
6 is our minimum group size. There is no maximum. Group discounts start at 20 people.
What is required for the deposit and when is it due?
We require a deposit within 7 days of booking and the balance is due 4 weeks before departure
What happens if someone in my group cancels?
Refunds can be given to individuals who have dropped out and who have informed us six weeks prior to the event. This excludes deposits. Click here for our full terms and conditions.
