Must-Do Activities for a Bachelor’s Party in Vienna
Now we’re ready, I will guide you through the best activities and unique experiences that will make this celebration legendary.
Keep in mind that there are a ton of activities in Vienna, and trying to do everything may lead to paralysis; that’s why I recommend doing it as they’re listed here:
1. Visit a Shooting Range
While shooting is not for everyone, it’s something that you need to do at least once in your life, and doing it in Vienna sure adds some uniqueness to it! Also, there sure will be an adrenaline-junkie among your friends!
Visiting a shooting range in Vienna is a unique experience it. Places like Ranger Sports offer the opportunity to shoot real weapons under the supervision of professional instructors.
Don’t worry if you have never shot before, you will get everything explained with an instructor, they are attentive at all times, and the facilities meet the highest safety standards.
There are several packages with different amounts of shots, but typically, you can choose between pistols, rifles, and even historical weapons.
Recommendation: Book in advance, especially if you’re a large group. Some ranges even offer special packages for bachelor parties.
2. Beer and Speakeasy Tour
Vienna has one of the best bar scenes on this side of the world; it’s often labeled as “spectacular,” and you can find a ton of different places, from bunkers and traditional breweries to hidden speakeasies and more.
Here are some of the ones you need to visit
- Loos American Bar: A classic with top-notch cocktails. This place has over 100 years of history and an elegant atmosphere.
- WEIN & CO Schottentor: A wine bar with a relaxed atmosphere. Perfect for starting the night with something quiet before hitting the club.
- The Chapel: A modern bar with good music and a youthful vibe. Here you can meet other travelers and locals while enjoying cold beers and creative shots.
Extra tip: Many bars have happy hours between 5 PM and 10 PM. I highly recommend that you take advantage of this to save a few euros before the night gets busy.
3. Limo Ride or Boat on the Danube
If you want to add a VIP touch to the celebration, then a limo ride is your best option! But I highly recommend that you rent a private boat.
While both are great options, sailing through the Danube is something you don’t do every weekend! So, if you prefer something more relaxing but equally special, a private sunset cruise is unforgettable.
Some boats even have DJs or catering services.
Tip: If budget is no issue, combine both options: a limo to get around the city and a boat to end the night in style.
4. Escape Room or Real-Life Gaming
If you like mental challenges and teamwork, the escape rooms in Vienna are some of the best in Europe. There are some that are highly popular, like “Mission Possible” or any Escape Room; they have very creative themed rooms, like underground prisons or mad scientist laboratories.
Why? Because it’s a fun way to test the group’s intelligence before the alcohol kicks in. Plus, the loser pays for the next round!
5. Extreme Karting
There’s not a single person who can resist some good old races! So, want to compete and see who’s the best driver in the group? The K1 Speed Karting Center is the perfect place.
It offers professional tracks, high-speed karts, and stopwatches to measure who can set the fastest time. The facilities are top-notch notch but it’s also very beginner-friendly, there are options for all levels, from novice to expert.
