Budapest Airsoft £55 per person
(£59 without hotel package)
This growing sport, now illegal in the UK, is a combat sport similar to paintball. Players eliminate opponents by hitting them with plastic BBs shot from airsoft guns. Weapons used are designed as replicas of real firearms and tactical gear.
Toboggan Run £27 per person
(£29 without hotel package)
We won't lie to you - this isn't the most adrenaline-fuelled stag activity in the world. So if the lads just want to go for some relaxing, 'kiddie' fun, then this activity is perfect. Roll down 700 metres of winding chutes and tracks in little tobbogans surrounded by the beautiful Visegrad hills. It really is fun, we swear! Check out the video for proof.

Forget Royal Ascot, Hungary's oldest race track is the place for betting and booze. But there won't be picnics and champagne, we're talking dirt cheap beer, wine and spirits. The former glory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the weight of communist era ineptitude make this a unique experience.
