how we work - an introduction
StagWeb™ is a professional tour operator so we consistently assist with requirements for travel and events, both in the UK and abroad. The central theme we apply is “how can we make this the best possible experience for you”. We always put ourselves in your position, so we better understand your expectations and can work closely with you on achieving the greatest results. Essentially we take a stag party brief and optimise it with the best available programmes. Through wide experience and a very high standard of delivery we have great relationships within the industry and therefore coordinate the leading programmes.

Because of the high volume of work that we do, we generate great rates for stag groups. In short what it means is we are able to deliver the greatest value - we pass the benefit on to you, together with our recommendations and expertise. Not only will this save you the time, hassle and personal expense of coordinating a premium quality itinerary, but you'll also benefit from the best programmes and better rates than are normally available. We work hard at delivering the greatest stag weekend programmes anywhere.

important advice …
Think value before cost. That’s to say if you’re going to pay for something it should be the best value experience available. Buying cheap can be very expensive if you have a rotten time. Indeed many cheap propositions are a blatant rip off, so beware price promises and nervous low cost propositions - often times you’re getting directed to relatively unacceptable, poor quality options. The purchase you make for your stag weekend will create an experience to remember (or forget), it will impress or depress the lads and most importantly, excite or upset the groom. Also select well, as a bonded and licensed tour operator StagWeb™ is one of the few organisations to provide you with the back up you should expect. Receiving great value is the best investment you will make, it‘s always rewarding to get benefits and added value - with StagWeb™ you‘ll get it.

how come you know so much about putting on a stag party?
Because we've been market leaders for over 6 years. From a hotels and event management background the founder of the company set up StagWeb™ when he was a bestman. StagWeb™ was originally a lads directory service when we established there was no decent facility to satisfy the needs of this market (genuine professional expertise remains very limited) - but after numerous requests for stag party assistance a new venture was born. With company experience in group travel, hotels, entertainment and corporate hospitality it was a strong platform to start from. We have developed into one of the leading specialist travel companies in the marketplace, we are confident we are the best.

why are you better than anybody else?
We understand what you want and need. We’ve got the highest levels of experience in tour operation, professional hospitality and event management which makes us different from most other companies in the marketplace (many have copied - which is flattering, but they consistently fall short there is only one StagWeb™). We prepare better, we structure programmes better, our administration and operations procedure is better. We only use the best available options, we provide exceptional quality and outstanding value and our service levels are second to none - we don’t take short cuts. Furthermore we concentrate solely of stag weekends - we make that our professional focus, we don’t try and be all things to all people, therefore we will always give you more. Your safe and successful weekend at incredible value is the reason we are in business. If you have a minute - have a look at our testimonials.

where do you make your money?
We negotiate the greatest rates in stag weekend leisure, but we also realise a lot of benefits by virtue of volume of business we do as a group, so the more we do the more you benefit. Because of our agreements and special prices it is highly likely that with our involvement you will end up paying a significant amount less for the stag weekend than if you had gone and done everything yourself - not to mention saving the hassle!

why do you do stag weekends?
Because we can and do provide the best service and experiences in the marketplace, and we enjoy working with groups on outstanding experiences.

what activities / entertainment should we do?
This is the big question, there's so much to choose from. Base it around some simple considerations - what's the budget, what does the groom like doing and what will the lads enjoy. The bottom line is that it's about enjoyment, so choose things that are going to appeal to you and that will have fun doing.

a member of my party is disabled, what should we do?
No problems at all. We’ll just need to know what conditions / restrictions / considerations apply and we can build the itinerary accordingly. We have experience in these matters. So rest assured we take all client needs seriously and act appropriately.

what should it cost?
That really depends on you and what you decide to do, some activities and entertainment will be more expensive than others, as will some hotels. The best way to work it is to put a budget on it.

should we get insurance?
If you’re going abroad - yes definitely. If you have your own insurance policy check that it covers you for everything that you’re doing. If you’re staying in the UK we would also always recommend it.

I'm going abroad, should I take extra care?
Yes certainly, think of it as a normal international trip. Get yourself insured and pay particular attention to international guidelines. As you know things can be done very differently abroad, even in EU countries. Have a look at our international tips.

how do I get people to commit?
You have to be quite tough with them, put down deadlines eg deposits in by "x", full payment due by "y". This is important because it will not only save you time in chasing but ultimately save you money by not covering for others. So introduce a 3 strike policy - if they don't get back to you by the third time of asking take them off the list, honestly the groom to be will understand.

what happens if numbers change?
No problems if we have enough notice, but obviously if you leave it too late see if you can get replacements.

when should I book?
As early as possible. The earlier you book it, the earlier we guarantee the itinerary you want for you.
