Prague is the ultimate cheap European destination

We hate to break it to you, but you’re officially being fleeced.

For the first time ever, the average price of a pint in the UK has smashed the £5 barrier, now sitting at a gut-wrenching £5.08.

But there’s an easy way to dodge this daylight robbery – and it’s just a two-hour flight away to Prague, where pints cost less than a bus fare.

While UK prices soar, Europe’s beer capital is still serving up pints for under £2. And with flights available for as little as £15, you could literally fly to Prague, sip a few pints, and still spend less than a Friday night at your local.

But Prague isn’t just about cheap beer (though that’s a big part of its appeal). It’s a stunning city, packed with must-see spots like Charles Bridge, the Astronomical Clock, and the world-famous Prague Castle.

More importantly, it’s tailor-made for an unforgettable lad’s trip.

Prague recently banned organised pub crawls for massive groups of 100+ people between 10pm and 6am – but you don’t need a tour guide to find an amazing night out here.

Instead, Prague offers a ton of activities you won’t find back home, like:

  • Target shooting with AK-47s
  • Beer bike tours
  • Brewery tours at Staropramen
  • Live football at Slavia or Sparta Prague

“Prague is Europe’s capital of beer and a great city for a long weekend away. And whilst it makes a great place for a couple’s retreat, really it’s the perfect set-up for lads holiday or a stag weekend,” says Simon Old at StagWeb.co.uk.

StagWeb are one of the UK’s leading stag party providers, having sent more than 700,000 people off on their pre-wedding weekends since 2002.

“If you are considering Prague for pre-wedding party, I’d always recommend doing stuff you can’t do in the UK – target shooting is an absolute must,” he adds.

So, if you fancy a weekend where your wallet takes a win for once, get the boys together and book a Prague stag do before UK pint prices reach £10.
