  • Just a quick email to say thanks Adventures Wales for organising my stag weekend in Wales last week. Everyone had a great time thanks to your help and easy going attitudes. As planned everyone was pretty tired after the amazing activities and I avoided being tied to a lamp post in Cardiff ! My liver did take a bashing though. Anyway, a great stag weekend, great activities with plenty of good memories of Cardiff and Wales. Thanks again for a great Welsh stag weekend.

Questions and Answers

All of your adventure stag do questions answered here.

What to do on a stag do?

A stag do is all about celebrating the groom’s last big adventure before marriage! If you’re looking for an adrenaline-fueled experience, our adventure stag weekends are the perfect choice. Popular activities include:

  • Paintball – Battle it out with your mates in an epic showdown.
  • Quad Biking – Tackle muddy tracks and rough terrain for an off-road thrill.
  • Whitewater Rafting – Take on the rapids for an unforgettable rush.
  • Archery – Test your accuracy and see who’s the best shot!
  • Zip Lining & High Ropes – Soar through the treetops and test your courage.

If you prefer a mix of adventure and nightlife, you can combine these activities with a night out in Cardiff or Swansea – both lively cities nearby.

The key is choosing something that suits the groom and the group’s energy levels!

What is a stag do?

A stag do (also known as a bachelor party) is a pre-wedding celebration for the groom-to-be, traditionally organized by the best man and close friends.

It’s a chance to have an unforgettable experience before marriage, whether that’s a wild weekend of adventure, a relaxing getaway, or an all-night party.

While classic stag dos often involve pub crawls and pranks, more modern stag weekends focus on exciting activities like outdoor sports, extreme adventures, and team challenges—all of which we offer in our adventure stag packages.

Why is it called a stag do?

The term “stag do” comes from British and European traditions. The word “stag” symbolizes strength, masculinity, and the idea of a free-spirited male—perfectly fitting for a groom’s last big adventure before marriage.

In the U.S., it’s called a bachelor party, and in other countries, it has different names:

  • “Buck’s Party” in Australia
  • “Enterrement de Vie de Garçon” (Burial of a Bachelor’s Life) in France
  • “Junggesellenabschied” in Germany

No matter what it’s called, the purpose remains the same: a legendary send-off before the big day!

How to plan a stag do?

Planning a stag do takes a bit of organization, but here’s a step-by-step guide to make it easy:

  1. Talk to the Groom – Find out what he wants! Adventure? Nightlife? A mix of both?
  2. Set a Budget – Agree on a price that works for everyone.
  3. Pick a Date & Destination – Choose a weekend and book in advance.
  4. Choose Activities – If the groom loves adventure, book quad biking, paintball, or whitewater rafting!
  5. Arrange Accommodation & Travel – Hotels, lodges, or even a camping weekend.
  6. Sort Food & Drinks – Plan meals, BBQs, or a big night out.
  7. Create an Itinerary – Keep it flexible but organized.
  8. Collect Money Early – Avoid last-minute stress by getting payments sorted in advance.
  9. Plan Surprises (Optional) – Funny challenges, stag outfits, or prank ideas.
  10. Enjoy & Capture the Moments! – Make sure the weekend is unforgettable.

Need a hassle-free plan? We handle all of this for you—just get in touch and we’ll take care of the rest!

Who pays for a stag do?

Typically, the cost is split among all the attendees, except for the groom—his expenses are often covered by the group as a gift.

To make payments easy:

  • Some groups use a shared fund where everyone contributes.
  • We offer individual payment options so each person can pay their share directly.
  • The best man usually manages the budget to keep things fair.

What to wear for a stag do?

Your stag do outfit depends on the activities planned:

  • For adventure activities – Wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing. If you’re doing quad biking, paintball, or rafting, bring spare clothes and old trainers (you’ll likely get muddy or wet!).
  • For a night out – Stick to smart-casual or follow any dress codes for clubs and bars.
  • For themed or funny outfits – Many stag groups dress the groom in outrageous costumes, from superhero suits to inflatable T-Rex outfits—just make sure he’s up for the fun!

We’ll provide all necessary gear for adventure activities, so you only need to bring your excitement and a sense of humour!
