The Big Apple is in many people's opinion the greatest city in the world and for every good reason, it is undeniably special. For a stag weekend it gives you a flavour unlike any other, there's simply a rarified atmosphere in New York City that you don't find elsewhere. For a stag weekend or bachelor party it offers an exciting and unrivalled experience, but to get the most from it stay at least 4 nights in Manhattan, take a bar tour to start and plan your itinerary so you're in the know and maximise your weekend, you'll have an amazing time!
