There is a traditional saying when it comes to planning a hen weekend – “Anything you can do, we can do better”. So when stag weekends started investigating Germany as a destination, it took barely a moment before hen weekends were looking at it as well.
Berlin, as the party capital of Germany, is an absolutely brilliant destination for a debauched and entertaining hen weekend – the kind which you remember forever, but you never tell anyone about. A Berlin Hen Do is all about taking advantage of the many amazing features this capital city has to offer. It is a city rich in history, culture, and impressive sights, but it’s also a city filled with great entertainments and some of the best nightspots in Europe.
Accommodation in Berlin is surprisingly affordable compared to other capital cities.
For hen groups, we highly recommend Central Apartments. These give you the flexibility to cook your own breakfast, relax in a living room, and have a glass of wine before heading out. They are often located in cool neighbourhoods like Mitte or Prenzlauer Berg, putting you right in the mix of cafes and boutiques.
If you prefer a hotel, we have excellent relationships with modern, stylish hotels that are hen-friendly and perfectly located near transport links.
There are many activities available for you to pick from when planning the perfect Berlin Hen Do.
For any Berlin Hen Do package, the most popular activity we offer has to be the Prosecco Bike (Beer Bike). This distinctly European activity allows you to tour the streets of this beautiful city while enjoying a drink and a chat with the girls – it’s like the culmination of all the activity options into one perfect afternoon.
If you are the sort of girls who like to explore, why not try a tour of the city on an Open Top Bus? Or for something truly unique, try the Trabant Tour, where you drive classic (and tiny) East German cars around the city.
For groups who fancy doing something a bit more active, why not jump into some canoes and go Kayaking? Exploring the city from the perspective of the river Spree gives you insights you’ve never considered before.
And for the adventurous, we even offer Target Shooting – lock and load some weapons you'd never see in the UK and compete to see who is the best shot!
We’ve covered what to do during the day, but we all know that the proof of a fantastic Berlin Hen Do is what you get up to in the evenings.
Mitte: This is the central district, packed with stylish cocktail bars and high-end clubs. It's perfect for a dressy night out and a nice meal.
Kreuzberg & Friedrichshain: For the famous "Berlin Cool" vibe, head here. These areas are gritty, artistic, and home to some of the world's most famous techno clubs. The bars here are relaxed, often set in reclaimed industrial spaces.
Given the huge number of options available, it might be wise to start your first night out with a Guided Bar Crawl. This will allow you to take advantage of a friendly local viewpoint, showing you the best pubs and bars to spend your time in.
With diverse and vibrant nightlife available throughout the city, and no fixed closing time at weekends, you can party right through until the next day – just don’t party so hard that you miss your flight home!
