Hen & Stag Nights & Stag Weekends in Eastern Europe Cities

In recent years hen and stag nights have tended to become weekend breaks and now there is a trend for them to be mini holidays especially as some of the market leaders in this industry combine the hen or stag night with other activities such as health spas anda range of sport activities. Eastern European hen and in particular stag weekends have for many years been asscociated with Prague which has stolen the crown from Amsterdam.

The recent accession of several other eastern european countries to the european union has resulted in hen and stag weekends being hosted in several other cities in eastern europe. It is now possible to organise a hen night & stag night or stag weekend in Tallinn Estonia, Prague Czech Republic, Budapest Hungary, Riga Latvia, Vilnius Lithuania, Krakow Poland, Bratislava Slovakia, Ljubljana Slovenia and other destinations in east europe. Some companies offer hen and stag weekends in eastern europe as a standard package with sport and leisure activities during the day whilst others offer a more personal bespoke or tailored service.

Personal Safety & Crime In European Cities

In addition to the official more serious advice and warnings issued by the Foreign Office which reflect reflect the percieved threat of a terrorist attack or terrorism in a country, each city in the Baltic States Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Southern Europe Northen Europe ( Scandinavia ) and Russia has its own level of petty crime and in particular - tourist traps. Each euromost city guide gives a brief synopsis of these issues which range from Ladies of the night / prostitutes in Prague or racial attacks in St Peterburg

Finding A Hotel, Hostel or Apartment In Scandinavia The Baltic States Central Europe Southern Europe Eastern Europe Russia

So the flight is 1€ or £0.00 plus taxes and charges but what to do about the accommodation? Do you use ask a local company that you are familiar with to book it for you or try finding something on the net? This may seem a difficult decision but in the end it will probably come down to price.

There is an abundance of hotel and apartment accommodation in most Eastern European cities especially in traditionally popular tourist destinations such as Berlin Germany, and Prague the Czech Republic. In cities like these a good percentage of the hotels and probably the majority of the apartments are privately owned. In less popular destinations such as Chisnau Moldova and Skopje Macedonia (though the latter is becoming increasingly popular) the majority of hotels are owned by multi-national companies and private apartments are scarce.

Across Eastern Europe the smaller hotels and owners of private often use agencies to act on their behalf. The notable exception is Dubrovnik Croatia which has a significant number of apartments and villas that you can book direct with owners.

Many multi national companies are effectively agencies. Their prices on the surface seem reasonable if compared with Western European or American accommodation but they are because of the commision structures in the pricing often not competitive - though there are some companies such as Last minute, Superbreaks and Wizz breaks who do offer competitive prices. The advantage of these multi-nationals irrespective of their prices, and arrangements made by your local travel agent is that if you have problems you are have some consumer rights to all on you return

The locally based agencies in most Eastern European Cities often offer hotel and apartment accommodation. Their standards of service are as good any where in Western Europe and some such as e-travel.cz in prague are truly exceptional. More importantly many of the a locally based agencies in most Eastern European Cities often offer hotel and apartment accommodation. More

Weather And Climate Information For Central Eastern Europe The Baltic States Scandinavia Russia and China.

For many people the words weather and Eastern Europe conjure up thoughts of extreme cold, heavy snow and communist military parades passing a windswept Kremlin ordained by old men clad in thick winter coats. We have it on good authority that the the severity of the Russian and Siberian winter which can dominate eastern europe weather goes back long before the cold war as Hitler and Napoelon discovered.

Cities like Moscow and St Petersburg in midwinter have an average daily temperature of -13c and at night the temperatures can fall to -33c. The other side of the coin is that both cities have an average day temperature in the summer of around 21c with highs occasionally of around 32c.

Weather conditions in many Eastern European cities can in winter be nearly as severe ( beware of a still cold harbouring a severe frost on a wind free day ) especially in late December, January and Febuary. However many Eastern Europe cities have summers that people in Western Europe can only envy.

Cities like Krakow and Prague have average summer temperatures to those in Russia but cities in Croatia Hungary, Moldova, Macedonia and Romania have average daily temperatures around 26c which can easily reach over 30c. Bucharest and Skopje have both had temperatures as high as 41c.

To simply this very diverse maze each euromost city in addition to a current weather forecast has a table of average daily maximum and minium temperatures. It also details the record high and low temperatures. Each table is colour coded with back ground colours. Temperaratures of -5c and below are shown in deep blue. Temperatures between -4c and 5c are shown in light blue. Temperatures between 6c and 24c are shown in white. Temperatures between 25c and 29c in yellow with temperatures above 30c shown in red. See local city guides. More

The European Tourist Boards Information & Advice On Tourist Travel Information From The National & City Tourist Boards In Central Eastern European & Baltic State Countries and Cities

There are numerous local city, national and official tourist boards in Central & Eastern Europe & The Baltic States. Some Eastern European Tourist Boards offer exceptional amounts of travel information and general tourist advice. Local tourist boards links in each city guide are a reliable source of information on local bus coach tram train metro and (underground ) services. These links often offer timetables. An increasing number offer tourist city travel cards or period cards many of which also offer discounts to sighteeing attractions exhibhitions and restaurants etc.

Some cities may be listed on a national tourist board website and also have their own local tourist office and tourist board website. Where ever possible we have linked to these tourist boards. Other tourist boards in Eastern Europe offer only basic information and advice - with a few places not having a tourist office. Where this happens we have endeavoured to include other well informed sources of useful independent information. More

Useful Travel Tips For The Smarter Traveller

When travelling abroad no one is as 'streetwise' as they are when at home. Practically every city in the world has its own local problems. In Eastern Europe , as in Western Europe petty crime can be a problem especially in tourist areas, coach and rail stations. See the euromost safety and security article in each city guide forr(cities)

In some rural areas of a few countries, notably Russia and the former Yugoslavia, landmines and political instability may pose a threat.

Security On Flights To US Likely To Be Increased

US Homeland Security boss Michael Chertoff has said that one of the main threats against America is sourced in Europe which was a 'platform' for attacks. He said there was a risk of future attacks from home grown terroism within Europe and from people comiing to Europe from Southern Asia and the Middle East.

Citing the Madrid and London Bombings as prime examples and the 2006 plans to blow up 'in flight' several planes between the UK US whilst he suggested that there was a need for additional security measures on US bound flights. He said such attacks had made the US authorities aware of the "real risk that Europe posed and that present security checks on travellers from Europe would be increased.

Currently many visitors from Europe are able to enter the United States without first being screened because of a visa waiver programme. "The ability to know who is coming across the US and to make checks on - including taking their fingerprints - is far better than five years ago," Mr Chertoff did not indicate when the new measures might be introduced but said the US would take steps to ensure travel and trade were not hitwill not carry any passengers and will have standard jet fuel available in flight.

flying phobia

Most passengers at sometime are apprehensive about flying. There are many different reasons for this - sometimes the sheer size of the aircraft is intimidating and its capacity to defy the laws of gravity seems questionable - which can provoke concerns about the risk of the plane having an accident of crashing.

Other concerns may be the the parts of the wing which move or the sound of the engine or the cranking noise of the planes landing gear.

These issues, like the turbulence aircraft occasionally encounter are normal and part and parcel of flying which is far far safer than road travel. .. More.
