Stag Do Ideas in Edinburgh: The Local's Guide

A stag do in Edinburgh works because the city does both halves of the weekend well: proper daytime activities within a short drive, and a night out you can do on foot. We have been running stag weekends here since 1998, so here is what actually delivers for a group.

Daytime stag do activities

Pick one main activity that suits the group's energy.

• Clay pigeon shooting at a championship ground just outside the city is our most-booked stag activity, and it works for everyone from first-timers to old hands. See clay pigeon shooting.
• Karting on a proper outdoor track settles the argument about who is quickest.
• White water rafting and canyoning are the picks for groups who want a real story to tell. Have a look at white water rafting.
• A whisky tasting is a solid warm-up before a night out, and a rare bit of culture the group will actually enjoy.

The full range is on the activities page.

The best stag night out

Edinburgh's late-night scene is concentrated around the Cowgate and Grassmarket, so you are never far from the next bar.

• A guided bar crawl is the easiest way to run the night. Our guide handles the route and the door queues so you can enjoy it. See the pub crawl.
• A party bus between venues keeps a big group together and starts the night early.

Let us build the weekend

Our stag packages put the hotel, the activities and the night out into one per-person price, so there is nothing to chase and no surprise costs. Give us your dates and numbers and we will put a quote together.
