Often overlooked in favor of the more well-known stag destinations, Budapest offers a plethora of excellent activities and attractions. From the bustling Liszt Ferenc square, which is full of excellent café’s and bars, to Raday Utca, which is the Soho of Budapest, there’s a lot for a group of young stags to see and do.

No matter what style of nightlife you are looking for, Budapest has a great variety of it to explore. This includes not just the hip and chic options but the classic as well. For instance, Faust Wine Cellar which is one of the oldest cellars in Europe and offers a great atmosphere and even greater wine. Traditional food over there is super spicy goulash soup which is packed with beef, chilli and Hungarian paprika, but if that doesn’t appeal then there’s also a variety of other cuisines.
