🔥 Top 10 Ideas in Krakow for 2025
Target Shooting
If you're heading abroad for a stag do, you need to do something you can't do in the UK... Hello, Target Shooting! Get your itchy trigger fingers around a range of Uzis, shotguns, and Kalashnikovs and put your shooting skills to the ultimate test. Lock and load!
Go Karting
Take on our fast-paced 500-metre track as you and the boys battle it out over three 8-minute sessions. Your 200cc karts will hit speeds of up to 40mph, which feels much faster when you're bouncing just a couple of millimetres from the floor.
Axe Throwing
The perfect way to train for the zombie apocalypse (believe us - it's coming!), step up to the axe oche and see if you can strike bullseye. Axe throwing is essentially darts, but a whole lot bigger and a lot more insane.
Whitewater Rafting
Can you keep your raft stag-side up as you head down the rapids?! You and the boys will split into teams of 6 and see who can conquer the course. These facilities are so good that Poland's Olympic team uses them to practice.
Party Boat
Unlimited drinks, party games, entry to two clubs, welcome shots and so much more - the Party Boat is the ultimate addition to every Krakow weekend. You'll jump aboard at 8.30 and cruise down the Wisla River for a two-hour celebration.
AK47 Shooting
Get your mitts around some high-powered AKs and test your shooting skills across multiple targets. You'll get 30-60 bullets depending on your package, plus an expert instructor on hand to give you pointers (aim the 'shooty end' away from you, etc.).
Paintballing
Situated in some dense woodlands, you and the boys will engage in a manic paintball battle across wooden bunkers, big obstacles and multiple scenarios. You'll get 200 paintballs each to get you started, and more can be purchased on the day.
Brewery Dinner
This is how you fuel a group of stags up before a big night out. Start the evening with a 'Mad Dog' shot before you tuck into a two-course meal as you pour your own pints at your table. It's hit after hit after hit!
Oil Wrestling
A cracking stag prank. You and the boys will enjoy two beers each as you watch a pair of Polish babes wrestle in oil. Little does the groom know, he will be asked to join them in the arena! Let's get ready to rummmbbbllleee!
Escape Room
Escape games are a great way to get those hazy heads in gear from the night before. You'll be locked in a room for an hour and the only way to escape is to solve all the tasks in front of you otherwise it's game over... permanently.

Where to Go on Your Krakow Stag Night
Rynek Glowny (Main Square)
Situated in the heart of the Old Town, this is the place to head for endless bars. Picture taking ten steps to get to your next pint stop, and you'll get an idea of what we're talking about.
Old Town
The Old Town is rammed with live music, local bites, and loads of tasty beers.
Kazimierz
The edgy, cool, hipster section of Krakow. Rebuilt after WWII, you'll find artisan bars and microbreweries dotted about. The real highlight is the "shot bars", which are bound to get you in the mood for a night out.
Nowa Huta
As it was built during the Communist era, the architecture can be brutal. But scratch beyond the surface, and you'll discover new microbreweries and trendy coffee shops.
Top Krakow Pubs, Bars & Clubs
🍺Dobry Kumpel
This is a bit of Krakow. Dobry Kumpel is a cracking little cellar bar that's packed full of great beer and good music (and it most definitely won't break the bank!).
Where: Floriańska 47, 31-019
🍺Pub Polski
Boasting big atmospheric arches, and fuelled by Tyskie's finest beers, Pub Polski in the Old Town is another belting bar. They also have plenty of screens showing live sports.
Where: Rynek Główny 44, 31-017
🍺Jazz Rock Café
A dark bar with an industrial vibe, this place pops off with live music. If the groom likes his rock or metal, we'd recommend heading here at least one night.
Where: Sławkowska 12, 31-014
🍺House of Beer
With draft beer and bottled beer from places like Belgium, Lithuania and Germany, House of Beer is - you guessed it - a beer lover's dream.
Where: Świętego Tomasza 35, 31-027
🍺Four Music Club
A buzzing underground club in the heart of the Old Town. At the weekends, they're open until 4 am, so you won't have to cut your night short here.
Where: Jagiellońska 6, 31-010
🍺Shine Club
This place is a modern clubbing experience. From the lighting to the tunes to three different rooms, Shine is a great night out.
Where: Starowiślna 16, 31-032
🍺Propaganda Pub
If you're into your ska, punk, rock or reggae, Propaganda is spot-on. If you're partying in the Jewish Quarter, we'd recommend a little visit to one of its oldest boozers.
Where: Miodowa 20, 31-055
🍺Cosmic Games Pub
Think neon lights and spaceship vibes, and that's pretty much the Cosmic Pub. They have a range of games to take on including beer pong - a great place to start the night.
Where: Karmelicka 27, 31-131
The Best Time to Go
According to our 2023 stats, 53% of StagWeb's partiers visited Krakow between March and May.
Why was this period so popular?
Well, the weather is hotting up and it's before wedding season, so the stags and groom have some breathing room before the big day.
You also miss the price rises of the summer holidays, so it's win after win after win.
How Long Do People Go For?
Last year, 52% stayed for 4 days and 3 nights, and we think this is perfect.
And because you're flying, this allows for two full days without travelling - plenty of time to get stuck into the bouncing nightlife and crazy activities.
Some stags go for longer, but we definitely wouldn't recommend going for any less than 3 nights.
How Soon Do People Book?
Stags heading to Krakow with us in 2023 booked three months before they were due to go which is a month less than the average, according to our end-of-year stats.
That's cutting it fine, fellas, and here's why:
- The later you leave it, the more likely you'll miss out on your first choices
- Flights are usually cheaper the earlier you book
- The sooner you book, the more time you have to spread your payments out
Where to Stay in Krakow
Krakow is a fairly walkable city, but the tram is also efficient and reliable, so you can afford to stay slightly further out and tram your way to the centre.
We have a superb range of Krakow stag accommodation in the centre of the city and beyond, so have a browse and find the place that's right for you.
What to Do in Krakow
When you aren't sampling vodka strong enough to sedate a gorilla or partying until the early hours, you've got up to 40 Krakow stag do ideas to choose from.
From shoot 'em ups to racing activities, there's plenty for you to sink your stag-sized teeth into.
If the groom's a footy fan, you could take in a game at Wisla Krakow or watch a game in one of the many sports bars dotted about the city.
Things to See in Krakow
Main Square
Boasting St Mary's Basilica and other iconic monuments, this place is a tourist hotspot. It's also full of some of the city's best bars, clubs, and restaurants - a great place to sit with a cold one and watch the world go by.
Wawel Castle
Enjoy some great views from the top of the walls of this iconic castle. Be sure to book tickets in advance if you want to have a tour round.
Planty Park
A great place to take those hangovers for a walk and let the sun's rays work their magic. It's right by the Old Town, so you'll probably stumble across it when you're exploring the city.
How to Get to Krakow...
What Airport to Fly to...
The main airport to fly to is the John Paul II International Airport.
Most UK airports fly to Krakow but check early to avoid getting caught out.
How Long is the Flight from the UK?
It takes 2-3 hours to get to Krakow, depending on where you fly from.
It's not too far, but definitely worth going for at least three nights (if you ask us!).
Getting from the Airport to Krakow
The airport is located 18 km from the city centre, and there are plenty of buses and taxis that will get you to where you need to go.
You can hop on the 209, 300 or 902 lines and expect to pay PLN 6.00 to PLN 8.20 (£1.20-£1.60 roughly).
Tickets can be purchased from the ticket machines at the terminal or the bus stop.
Although taxis are available, too, we recommend arranging a private transfer to take you straight to your accommodation.
Be sure to tick the box on your Krakow enquiry form and we'll add it to your quote.
Tips On Getting Around Krakow
Walking - Krakow is a walkable city, especially when it comes to sightseeing in the centre and exploring all the best bars and beers. For anything further out, you may need to consider alternatives.
Tram - The transport in Krakow has won awards for being reliable and efficient (unlike the UK), so this hop-on hop-off method is an excellent way of getting around the city. It's also stupidly cheap at around £1 per ticket.
Bus - Is the next bar on the other side of the city? Fear not, buses are also a reliable method of getting around.
Taxis - There are plenty of taxis dotted about if you need to get further afield without having to work out the bus network.
Top Tip: A KrakowCard gives unlimited use of public transport and gets you entrance to a range of museums in the city.
Common Krakow Stag Do FAQs
Is Krakow good for a stag do?
Krakow is one of Europe's best places for a stag do. It's perfect for a send-off for plenty of reasons: it's not too far to travel, it's cheap, it has amazing nightlife, and it is rich in culture and history. Krakow is more than ideal for a stag do.
Does Krakow have good nightlife?
The nightlife might just be the number one attraction in Krakow. From the bustling bars to awesome beer gardens and A-grade beer - prepare for an action-packed outing every night. The number of bars alone is crazy.
What do you wear on a night out in Krakow?
You might be glad to hear that the dress code in most bars is laid-back. However, some clubs around the Old Town are stricter and won't allow sports t-shirts or joggers. Wear some nice gear if you plan on clubbing.
Is Krakow a cheap city?
Krakow is a cheap city. The accommodation, food, beers, and transport are reasonably priced compared to most European stag locations. One of the big reasons that plenty of guys flock here.
How much does a drink cost in Krakow?
Krakow is roughly 50% cheaper than London and you should expect to spend around £3 for a pint, making it one of the most affordable stag party destinations!
Can I drink in public in Krakow?
Unfortunately, drinking in public is illegal, but you can go on a pub crawl and take breaks between drinking to explore the sights!
What alcohol is Krakow known for?
It starts and ends with vodka and beer - the perfect fuel for an unforgettable evening. In Krakow, you've got access to some of the tastiest vodka around, but be careful, it's not your standard stuff.
Is 3 nights in Krakow enough?
3 nights is the perfect duration. Most of our stags visited for 3 nights, and this was plenty of time to conquer Krakow. Anything less and you probably won't have time for all the activities, nightlife, and sightseeing.
