“To all my groups that had upcoming stag do with RSW”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Brett1317 on 15/11/2013

On the 5th of September 2013 I had all groups arranged and ready for the stag do's however on this day I was told by the owner that he was selling rsw????? and my position no longer was available. I left Royal Stag Weekends that day and handed over all files to the owner. I have recently heard that he didn't inform any clients that he was selling and just handed over all files to new owners???? who also didn't inform that they are the new owners. I have been contacted (via facebook)by one of the groups very upset cause they cannot get hold of anyone at Royal Stag Weekends. Regards Brett Meadway

Hi,

Thank you for your post and making customers aware of the change in ownership.
Do you know who bought the business?
I would expect the new owners will honour any bookings made.
If not then my company Freedom Stag Weekends will do our best for the clients.

Kind regards

“Riga Strip Yacht and a bit of nightlife”

★★★★☆

written by on 08/08/2013

We booked the yacht with two strippers and had a nice trip there (I have to admit that the night before was a bit rough so we were rather calm). Later on the same day/night we went to Jockeys which turned out to be a very funny event; definitely a safe place to go and enjoy your time. Tx; we had a great time in Riga! :-)

“BRIGHTON STAG”

★★★★☆

written by bellboy77 on 23/07/2013

No problems here, organised my brother's stag do at relatively short notice from the Royal Stag Weekends company and everything went smoothly. The email communication was swift and polite from my contact and he was quick to chop and change as a couple of my party dropped out to amend the booking. I wanted a quick cheap no nonsense 1 day/1 night stag do with one activity and a nights stay - alot of companies wanted to book us in for 2 nights only and the ones that offered 1 night was extortionate prices. The activity was mud buggies by amazon events, well organised, good staff and most of all good fun. Would recommend.

The advisor was fantastic told him what we wanted for the stag. He smashed it and every person at the stag loved every second. So glad I booked with the royal stag it was a night to remember well not for the stag he got too drunk to remember. Waiting for someone else to get married so we can book with royal stag again.

“Awesomeness in Budapest”

★★★★☆

written by on 10/07/2013

We had an awesome time in Budapest. Our hotel was nice and in the central which was a perfect location. Our guide was very friendly and took us around the different clubs in the night crawl. Paintballing was very fun. One thing though, the environment where this was done was full of mosquitos. bushes and stinging nettles so we all got rashes and nasty bites which wasn't great :( Thanks for organising this. It was a memorable stag.

“Riga at its best!!”

★★★★★

written by Mikasika on 09/07/2013

We were a group of 16, and had booked three days and two nights of Riga with the limo tour from the airport, a fantastic central hotel, bob sledge experience and the old town bike tour. As it was summer time the open air clubs were the best experience, which is as well the reason why the day time activities suffered quite a lot :) We had a more than great guide who took care of everything for us and was always available, which amde the experience even more worthwhile. Overall I can say we enjoyed a great time in a very special location with very friendly and outgoing people, so we can recommend to anybody who thinks about going to Riga!

Thanks for helping organise our stag do, everything went to plan. That particular go karting track is the best I've been on and everyone had a cracking time, the stag won the race! After that we went to walkabout, a few other bars, the strip club for the stags show, we got our 3 bottles of champagne no probs then went to gate crasher where we got a concession price of £6, everyone got in ok All in all a great day so thanks very much for all your help!

After not being the most organised person, I got in touch with Royal Stag Weekends at last minute before heading away on our stag weekend to Amsterdam. They got back in touch rapidly and within days I had activities booked up, which the stag party thoroughly enjoyed. Would recommend Royal Stag Weekends service to any friends or family.

“What an incredible weekend, I can't thank you enough”

★★★★★

written by on 26/06/2013

Transfers all on time, accommodation was perfect, loved the little outdoor area, great location off the Raval (Barcelona) and they let us leave our bags there all day which was helpful. Anna and Suzie on Friday were great, and they took us on a tour of a few bars before pointing us in the direction of Razz. Sat, Zoe looked after us at the poker, and the Stag won which worked well. We then took her for dinner, and she recommended a cracking club, and sent us off. Sunday we headed to the beach, and crawled around the town, going from bar to cafe. Perfect weather, perfect crowd, perfect weekend. The stag party must have thanked me about 20 times they all had so much fun. Great success.

“Highly recommended!”

★★★★☆

written by colinyork on 14/06/2013

The team did a wonderful job of organising a great stag weekend at relative short notice. After a little initial direction they sorted everything out and the whole weekend ran very smoothly. With such a big group the online payment method was such a good way of managing the money and ensuring all the guys got signed up. I was especially grateful for the personal contact with the advisor, who was available at a moments notice to make adjustments where necessary. An excellent service - I would highly recommend

“Royal Stag Weekends highly recommended !!”

★★★★★

written by Leoa on 11/06/2013

Thank you so much to the Royal Stag Weekend team for making my stag do such a memorable event. We all had a lot of fun! Riga is a fantastic city, but you need to know the right places to go (and avoid) and thankfully with Royal Stag Weekends we were in safe hands, and could concentrate on having a good time. I want to say a special thank you to the person we dealt with for always being available to pick us up and drive us around (even when it was very late at night and after we changed our mind a number of times!)I know the we didn’t make it easy for you when booking everything with extra people wanting to come and others dropping out at the last minute, but you were extremely accommodating and made us feel you had everything under control. For me that’s what separates Royal Stag Weekend from other stag do companies out there – they’re knowledgeable, flexible and friendly; they’re with you every step of the way to make sure you have a good time, and build the stag do around what you want to do. Thanks once again and we wish you every success in the future. Leo Archutowski (the stag)

“All credit to Royal Stag Weekends!!”

★★★★★

written by on 07/06/2013

what a legendary stag, made entirely possible by the superb organisation of this company. Riga is a gem of Europe and yet relatively new on the radar, but in my opinion surely better than any other destination I have been to in Europe for a stag weekend! Nothing was too much for the team of Royal Stag Weekends. The staff go out of their way to ensure every element is taken care of and go beyond their duties to ensure you are looked after. I cannot recommend them highly enough!!

“With you every step of the way(but only if you want...”

★★★★★

written by BlackBalz on 04/06/2013

The person I dealt with was a bit of a legend by all accounts Reliable, efficient, decent bloke who goes out of his way to ensure a good craic Knows how to figure out what the stag crew are after and does his best to deliver The thing I personally liked the best about his approach was that he was always keen to differentiate the service that his company offer by doing a little bit more at no extra charge. For instance, we knew that we were going to go shooting on Friday and quad biking on Sat but had no fixed plans for Sun... what we ended up doing was organised the day before and was absolutely perfect. Another example is how he will drop you off at a venue but then always remind us that we have his number and should call if we had any problems. Because he'd guided us so clearly on where to go and where not to go we barely ever had to call him. The one time we did need his help (silly bint at the door to the club couldn't see our name on the guestlist even though it turned out to be in plain view) he was back in a shot.. I genuinely cannot see any room for improvement - his approach to ensuring the stag do fits everyones needs was impeccable We all had a brilliant, drunken, safe, hot women obsessed long weekend. Viva Royal (when you try the rigas balsam... don't chuck the baby out with the bathwater... move onto black balsam... it's much better)

Good day,

On hearing about the groups complaints I contacted the party bus people for a report. This is there report:

Hi,

I have just had the following report from our manager who was on board on Saturday 1st June 2013;

"We did have a problem with this particular group upon arrival at the meeting point at chase. The weather was fantastic in Newcastle on Saturday and the guys had clearly been drinking heavily during the day. They were already pretty drunk by the time they came on board.

I did warn all of the groups on board the bus about not drinking to the point they can't walk straight in my welcome speech as usual and we had no problems in the first venue. The guy's seemed in high spirits, although they were a little disappointed the top floor with the group of girls on board was already full when they came out.

Upon arriving at the Quilted Camel, one of the bouncers stopped one of the group because he was too intoxicated and not because of anything to do with clothing or footwear. Unlike many other cities just about anything goes with footwear in bars in Newcastle and I myself have never seen anyone turned away for this reason. The rest of the group decided that they did not want to leave him alone outside and as the door staff were not going to budge on his entry, I advised them they should get him some water and they would be able to continue the tour again once the bus left this venue. As it happened, the guys were nowhere to be seen when it came to leaving for the third venue where the stripper was to be held and because we had multiple groups on board we were unable to delay for more than 10 minutes.

Upon arrival at the third venue, the stripper was awaiting our arrival and was then informed of the situation. She opted to wait for another 10 minutes in case they showed up and, as they did not, left as she had to attend another booking.

They genuinely seemed like a nice group of lads who'd just had a bit too much to drink, it's a shame they didn't stay long enough to have the strip and continue with the rest of the tour. The rest of the groups seemed to have an amazing night on board the bus!"

I have actually just had the following feedback from one of the other groups who were on board;

"AS WE WERE UNSURE OF WHERE WAS BEST TO HEAD, WE ARRANGED A PARTY BUS FOR MY FRIENDS HEN. WE HAD AN ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC NIGHT, AND THE STAFF WERE EXCELLENT. WHAT A PERFECT WAY TO ENJOY A NIGHT OUT. PLUS SAVED OUT FEET !:-)"

Which I hope helps to show that we do our best to make sure that all of the groups enjoy their night, we do have to respect the door staffs decision though and if a person is deemed to be too intoxicated then their decision is final.

hope this helps, if there is anything else I can do just let me know.

Kind Regards

Good Day,

I had spoken to this group regarding the disappointment they had faced earlier in the day and requested they give me till the next day to get a full report from the supplier of the party bus. I see though that he has gone and written a another review on this topic.

He says that the group spent Gbp1080 in total and this would be correct however the party bus cost the group a total of GBP280,00. This included the tour of venues plus stripper. The stripper did arrive but the group never returned to the bus after they had been thrown out of the venue.

Once I have a full report regarding what had happened on the night I ll be able to see where the fault lies. If indeed it is the suppliers issue Ill make sure the group gets compensation however if it is the fault of the group due to the behavior then we cannot be held responsible.

I am happy to speak to anyone regarding this groups issues on the stag do.

The full report will be made available.

I think you should put real pictures of the bus on your web site and show how it's really is! Nothing like what you say on this web page! It's a old double decker with the same seats nothing great just an old bus! You make it out like it's VIP not!

Had great contact with the company all the way through the booking process. Very helpful and informative. Stag weekend was fantastic was met on arrival by our guide who was very friendly and polite. Had no worries as transfers were all arranged for us. The guide showed us the city and where to go which we used as a platform for our second night. Everyone had a great time and were really impressed.

Here at Royal Stag Weekends we are committed to making sure our groups have a good time on the stag do. We don’t take any joy when a group is not satisfied but in this case it seems from our suppliers that the result of the dissatisfaction is due to the groups behavior on the night of which we cannot be held responsible.

This groups full and agreed upon package:

1) 3* Hotel: 2 night stay, central location
2) Party bus plus strip: PARTY BUS PLUS STRIP: Packages start between 18:30 & 20:00 Centrally Located Pick Up Point Q jump and FREE entry to each venue Silver Double Decker bus with massive sound system (as described on the party bus website)
3) Nightlife: arranged vip/guaranteed entry to 3 bars, 2 clubs and Some Like It Hot Lapdancing. Entry by 2am at Strip Club

I have requested a full report from the Party Bus Company as to what happened on the night. The initial report so far is as follows:
• Due to the group’s bad behavior at one of the venues, they were thrown out.
• The stripper did turn up but the group were actually thrown out of the bar before she came on board and did not return to the bus.
• I understand that all of the group were very drunk and it was suspected that one of them was under the influence of something else as well."
I completely agree with the writer of the review but where I disagree is that as a company we use suppliers and rely on them to deliver what has been planned and booked. I worked with this group to ensure all was planned, booked and paid weeks in advance.
On the night, the feedback from the different suppliers is that the groups behavior let them down and resulted in them not enjoying the party bus.
We cannot be held responsible for the group’s actions once they are out on the town.
The writer mentions that he was not given what was promised and he could have arranged it himself better. Firstly it took us as a company to send several reminder letters to each mate to settle their confirmation of place and the outstanding balance so the weekend could be finalized. We were flexible and allowed the group to pay well after the due date. I had prepared a full party schedule detailing the full party as we had planned and booked. In the end everything was in place but the groups actions on the night resulted in this bad review. They were kicked out of the venue and from there looked to blame our company.
I will wait for the full review from the party bus and will be posting it here as his remarks although understandable are unfair towards our company. We provide a 24 hour number to contact suppliers and ourselves should any group run into issues. I’m wondering why they never did!
We have arranged numerous stag do and never faced this situation. Anybody reading this review can see from our reviews that our groups are happy with the service we provide.
I will be happy to discuss any of these issue’s personally with anybody who is thinking about our company as a provider for a stag do.

Club_Class_Bus_Newcastle's Response to 840214's Review

Written on: 05/06/2013

Hi Guys,

I'm very sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the Party Bus with us on Newcastle on Saturday night. Newcastle, unlike in many other cities, is very relaxed when it comes to footwear and in my 9+ years of working in the city I have never seen anyone turned away for this reason. The door staff are responsible for the health and safety of everyone on our tour . Sadly for your group on this occasion the door staff at the second venue deemed one member of your group to be too drunk. As I'm sure we have all experienced in the past, the word of the bouncer is final and there is little our staff could do but to advise you on the best course of action available.

Our team were happy for you to return to the bus if you wished, and as you did not wish to leave your friend, advice was given to ensure he had plenty of water and for your group to return to the bus prior to it's departure in order to carry on with us. It was after this third trip that the full strip was scheduled to take place, and unfortunately as you chose not to return to the bus at this point you missed out on this aspect of the tour.

I am very glad you managed to enjoy the rest of your evening despite the difficulties you experienced and hope you would consider returning to the city in the near future.

Kind Regards,

Chris Burns
Manager - Club Class Party Bus Newcastle

“Dublin stag experience, go karting”

★★★★☆

written by NickAyton on 03/06/2013

The guy who I booked with was very easy to talk to especially as we tailored everything to suit our needs. We used them for a transfer to go go karting and then the transfer to the guinness factory. The go karting was excellent and everyone loved it. We had to wait about 20 mins for transfer on way back but that is a very minor point. Would recommend them as they seemed very organised
