Planning a 3-day Prague stag weekend itinerary? Think fairy-tale spires by day and Europe’s cheapest pints by night, the Czechs drink about 287 pints of beer per person each year. Over the next 72 hours, we’ll trade airport queues for a limo fridge, squeeze off rounds at an AK-47 range, and salute the groom on a private beer boat, all while dodging Prague’s 2024 post-10 pm pub-crawl ban. By Sunday, you’ll be soaking in a beer spa, wallet lighter, story bank fuller. Let’s make the groom a legend. Here’s the map.
Before You Go: Stag-Planning Essentials
Nail these five pillars now, and the weekend will pour as smoothly as a fresh Pilsner.
Lock the guest list. Confirm who’s coming, who’s paying, and who’s sharing rooms, then spin up one group chat so flights, deposits, and memes stay in one place.
Choose your dates. Winter (October–February) is bargain season: return London–Prague flights often dip below $75 in January and February.
Pick the right base. Old Town or Wenceslas Square keeps you steps from 4 am kebabs; mid-range hotels here average $76 a night outside peak months. For cheaper beds and beer-garden vibes, stay in Žižkov and hop the tram to the centre in ten minutes. Always tell the property you’re a stag group, because some city-centre hotels still veto large parties at check-in.
Know the rules before the first round. Prague fines open-container rebels up to 1,000 CZK (≈ $48) on the spot, and commercial pub crawls after 10 pm were banned in 2024. Stick to bars, private tours, or your own crawl, and keep cans closed until you’re indoors.
Run a buddy system. Appoint one “soberish” navigator each night, and never let anyone wander off solo—pickpockets love distracted tourists at 3 am. A headcount before every taxi or tram keeps the groom’s cousin from starring in a missing-person saga.
Get these basics sorted, and the rest of the trip is pure celebration.
Touchdown Made Easy: Let Prague Stag Fun Handle The Chaos
Your stag weekend should start with beers, not baggage-claim drama. Prague Stag Fun’s airport party bus meets the group at arrivals, stocks the fridge with cold Pilsner, and rolls straight to your hotel, with no queue and no lost mate at the taxi rank. A one-hour transfer in their XXXL Party Bus costs from $57 per person for groups of 18 or more and includes a host, onboard bar, and a welcome round of drinks.
The same package bundles VIP club entry and 24-hour phone support, sparing you the mark-ups that come with booking cabs, clubs, and late-night food runs separately. One WhatsApp chat covers any curveball, whether it is a flight delay, a last-minute add-on, or an emergency kebab hunt at 2 am.
Want to raise the entrance stakes? Upgrade to a Lincoln limo for $301 for up to eight people, or add extras such as a surprise dancer or a “prank arrest.” Because the agency works with vetted venues, door staff greet you by name, and your “best seats in the house” really are.
Outsource the logistics, and the first big decision you will face is simple: Lager or Pilsner? Book the party bus directly at praguestagfun.com
Wild Welcome: Mud-Wrestling Mayhem
Kick awkward introductions straight into the sludge. Prague Mud Wrestling rents a private Old Town lounge, drops two Czech wrestlers into a knee-deep pool of chocolate-brown mud, and dares the groom to join.
- Package price: from $578 per group for up to 8 guests, plus $14 for each additional person. The 45-minute slot includes a 20-minute two-girl show, welcome beers, and a bravery shot for the bachelor.
- Safety box checked: referees control the moves, the mud is hypoallergenic, and hot showers sit five steps from the pit.
- Prime time: book between 4:30 pm–8 pm; any earlier and flights might run late, any later and you will be hoarse before the club crawl.
Pro tips: bring the stag a spare T-shirt and set phones to burst mode. 10 years from now, nobody remembers beer number three, but everyone remembers the moment he landed face-first in the muck.
Night 1: Old Town Bars, Five Floors Of Chaos
Mud washed off and hunger rising, start the evening at Lokál Dlouhá, where long wooden tables deliver goulash by the ladle and unpasteurised Pilsner for 40–50 CZK ( $1.75–$2.15) a pint. First round: toast the groom, the city, and the yet-unstained shirts.
Step outside onto Dlouhá Street, a neon artery of craft-beer taps, shot bars, and cocktail dens. Keep the crawl self-guided; commercial tours after 10 pm are banned, and fines can hit 1,000 CZK (≈ $43). Two bars per hour is the sweet spot, enough time to mingle without stalling behind a tourist conga line ordering blue margaritas.
Around midnight, aim for Karlovy Lázně, the five-story club 40 m from Charles Bridge. Entry starts at 250 CZK (≈ $11), while VIP tables with bottle service begin at 1,500 CZK (≈ $65) and include line-skip and cloak-room. Each floor spins a different genre, from EDM to ’90s hits. The basement Ice Bar hands out parkas with vodka; the rooftop lounge frames Prague Castle in laser beams. Splurge on a booth, and you have a rally point when phones die and dance floors swallow half the group.
Sunrise exit? Prague’s night trams roll every 30 minutes from Lazarská, tickets under $2.15, so you avoid the “why is this taxi meter sprinting” panic. Glide home, pockets intact, stories already growing.
One epic night down, two stages to go.
Day 2 Morning: Adrenaline Therapy At The Range
Nothing shakes a hangover like gunpowder. At 10 am, a private minibus collects the crew for Indoor Gun Shooting – 25 Shots, 20 minutes outside Prague. Instructors hand out ear and eye protection, deliver a safety briefing, and smile like people who have seen plenty of stag faces.
What you shoot
- Glock 17 (10 shots)
- Classic or modernised AK-47 (10 shots)
- Pump-action shotgun (5 shots)
Package price: $87 per person, including return transport, 25 rounds, and a soft drink; minimum six guests. Ranges turn away anyone who has been drinking, so book before that first brunch beer to stay within Czech firearms law.
Not a firearms fan? Swap in go-karts from $43 per person, paintball in a disused factory, or a tank ride for $119 per person if the groom deserves heavy metal. Each option delivers fast movement, light rivalry, and stories that outshine last night’s dance-floor exploits.
By 1 pm, you are back in the centre, targets rolled like diplomas and group chat buzzing about who hit the bullseye. Burgers, hydration, and fresh bragging rights set the tone for round two of nightlife.
Day 2 Evening: Boat Cruise On The Vltava
When the Vltava glows at golden hour, board your private party boat at Čech Bridge. A built-in keg and Bluetooth speakers await; press play and watch Prague Castle light up the skyline.
Package basics
- 60-minute private cruise with unlimited beer, wine, and soft drinks: $64 per person, minimum 10 guests
- Route glides under Charles Bridge and along the flood-lit castle panorama
- Extra hours or a hot-and-cold buffet are available for a small surcharge
Want more spice? Upgrade to the Strip Boat Party Cruise. The dock sits a 10-minute walk from Old Town Square; large groups can split two Bolt vans for about 120 CZK (≈$5.40) each way. The contained deck turns the performance into front-row entertainment without land-club fatigue.
Logistics stay painless. The dock sits a 10-minute walk from Old Town Square; large groups can split two Bolt vans for about 120 CZK (≈$5.40) each way. Pack a light jacket, because the river breeze drops after dark, and preload a shared playlist so the music never pauses.
You will step off mildly buzzed, photo galleries full of castle shots, and—best of all—everyone still together for the final day’s exploits.
Day 3: Beer-Spa Revival And Farewell Feast
Sunday moves in slow motion. Throw on sunglasses, stroll to Café Louvre by 10 am, and order the English breakfast for 295 CZK (≈ $13) plus a double espresso that could restart a jet.
Five minutes later, reward heroic livers at Beer Spa Bernard. Two oak tubs bubble with warm pilsner, fresh hops float on top, and a tap beside the bath pours unlimited refills. A 60-minute private room for two costs 3,300 CZK (≈ $146) and splits into 20 minutes soak, 20 minutes straw-bed relax, and 20 minutes shower and change. Book early; weekend slots vanish quickly.
Spa not your style? Lock yourselves in a 1950s nuclear-bunker escape room. Sixty minutes of sirens and puzzles run about 900 CZK per person (≈ $40). Pick a venue near the centre so airport transfers stay flexible.
By mid-afternoon, hunger roars. Take tram 22 up to Strahov Monastic Brewery; the hilltop terrace overlooks the city you conquered. Roast pork knuckle with dumplings lands at 540 CZK (≈ $24) and pairs with a 0.4-litre amber ale for 79 CZK (≈ $4).
Conclusion
Final toast: one for the groom, one for the best man, and one for Prague itself. Phone trade highlights reels, vows form for the next reunion, and you head to the airport heavier in stories and lighter in cash, yet perfectly content.
