Have you ever thought about organising a stag do like those in the movies? Of course you have, although these types of parties usually get their protagonists into somewhat thorny situations, not to mention absolutely delirious ones.
After all, what is a stag do for if not to let loose and have something to tell the grandchildren, right? Well, let’s see how you can organise a movie-like stag do in the world’s most famous city for these kinds of events: We’re going to Las Vegas!
Choosing a Hotel in Las Vegas
First of all, and bearing in mind that we’ll already have the guest list and the plane tickets, it will be time to book the hotel where everything will begin. In the city, you have options for all tastes, so it will depend on your budget.
If you want to go traditional and emulate the protagonists of Despidalia in Vegas, you should know that the hotel they stay at is the Caesar Palace.
However, you can also choose very famous places like the Bellagio, the Treasure Island, or the one Donald Trump has there. Cheaper options are the Flamingo or the Resort Paris, where you can see a replica of the Eiffel Tower or dine at one of the famous chef Ramsey’s restaurants.
Limousine? Of Course!
Are you going to celebrate a stag do in Las Vegas and you don’t plan to move around in a limousine? Then it’s better to look for another place. At least, let them pick you up at the airport and take you to the hotel while you enjoy your first drink in the city. Also, surely the hotel staff will greet you with a big smile. Bigger and more genuine than if you arrive by bus, for sure.
Activities in Las Vegas Before or to Start the Party
Since it doesn’t all have to be dinner and night partying, you can take advantage of the amount of services and activities that the city of sin offers. For example, enjoy a good swim in the hotel pool, which unless it’s a very shabby place, it’s sure to have. Make the most of your time during your stag do in Las Vegas.
There are also other options, like a buggy ride in the desert, a paintball battle, and of course a visit to one of the casinos that are open day and night in the city.
If you fancy more of a show, the signs of the big hotels will tell you who’s on at each place. Celine Dion, Britney Spears or even the Cirque du Soleil have or have had permanent shows there. Additionally, you can surprise yourselves with a live and free performance of some show.
Las Vegas is a unique city for a stag do. It has so many facets that it’s impossible to see them all. So choose well what you are going to do during the stag do and you’re sure to have a great time. Moreover, if you’re left wanting more or would love to repeat, just wait for another foolish dear friend to get married and go back there.
