Edinburgh
Whether it’s the Edinburgh Fringe or casual stroll up the Royal Mile or diving down rapids in the nearby mountains, there is no end to the possible stag do activities to be had in Edinburgh. Steeped in a history all its own with castles, The Royal Tattoo, and so much else for you to do and see, there’s something for everyone. In addition to the natural and historical beauty of the fine city, there also seems to be a festival of one kind or another going on in the city limits, all year long.
When it comes to destinations for a stag do, Edinburgh should be top of your list. Chillisauce recently did a survey of the most popular stag do destinations and Edinburgh headed the list by a standing mile. What makes Edinburgh such a great city for a stag do is that it provides a stunning location, with amazing architecture, superb nightlife, as well as a vast array of outdoor stag do activities ideas, that make use of the breath taking natural environment. There are no other places in the UK which you can do natural white water rafting 365 days a year, and if you went to England you would end up travelling down some poor quality man made course. Some of the most popular stag do activities in Edinburgh also involve quad bike trekking in the mountains - there again you would not find the natural conditions in England (or many other places in the world for that matter) to make rageing round on a fat four wheeled bike such an amazing experience!

If you’re lining up a stag weekend, you’d really be doing everyone a disservice if you didn’t include a comedy club in there somewhere. A club show includes a different set of maybe five or six different comics; each of which are quite funny. From time to time you’ll even get a surprise set by some famous comic who just misses the intimacy of small audiences and a...
If you’re interested in an adrenaline fueled experience, why not try karting with you and your mates at the next stag you’re privy to.
