Great Hen Do made possible by great company
DesignaVenture was very organised from the start and helped me to arrange my sisters Hen Do. Good service and good value for a weekend package including hotel and a day at the races.
white water rafting and quad biking in wales
I would like to thank designaventure for a fantastic weekend that left everyone on the stag do thrilled to bits with the weekend,even when the pub we were staying in cancelled at the last minuet the team found us a hotel to stay in at no extra cost . I would use them again
brilliant, very helpful and made my life easy
Really enjoyable. Very helpful staff. Would recommend to anyone
Missed out information
My only and biggest gripe was no one mentioned the bond that needed to be paid to the hotel for group booking. I understand this is in the T's and C's but communicating this info over the phone after having asked you 3 times is wrong. Also prices are misleading as the prices were twin rooms and over priced. If we have booked seperately it would have been much cheaper and no bond to pay.
Well organised stag weekend
Having arranged a similar stag weekend previously I was pleased with the way this ran. Everything was taken care of and ran smoothly. The pub on site was good for food but the review provided for the pub was clearly from someone that hadn't been there.
The walking dead
We went for a stag to Manchester for the action heroes package which included- • A 3 hour zombie role play mission, which included BB shotguns and ammo, snacks at the halfway point and photos of the group and with the actors which was a nice touch. We also paid a supplementary £40 for a go pro which was more than worth the £ for a little hilarious keepsake for the stag as people mostly forgot it was on. The actors were decent but got a but muddled at times and some took themselves too seriously but this just added to the humour for us. The activity was really good and despite us being just late (because of unexpected delays related to the opening season footie fixture traffic) the team were very accomodating and understanding after i called ahead to tell them we might be late. •hotel B+B- the hotel was actually more upmarket then i expected (the usual cost for a room there was £110- to put it in context we paid £130 each for the stag package so the company got us a great deal there). The hotel was central enought to grab a quick and cheap taxi into manchester but far enough away to avoid congestion etc. •We also had included 4 bar passes in manchesters paint works. Being a group of 16 we really struggled to get into any pub as the manchester doormen did not take kindly to stag groups. We only ended up visiting one of the 4 bars (Tiger Tiger), who did not have either my name nor designaventures on the guest list- BUT- after asking to see my invoice they still let us in. It was the same story with the strip club (Silks) but they again let us in when i produced an invoice without charge. The clubs/ bars were well picked and were close to each other- We passed 3 of them on the way to tiger tiger. The strip club was also a 10 min walk from the bars but we opted for a taxi as we were too sloshed. The strip club was good and the girls not too pushy (As some of the guys previously experienced). •Designaventure themselves were very professional and helpful. I must have sent a dozen emails to them and they replied in a very timely fashion and always answered my question. The stag info pack they sent was well put together and i thought for what we got the price was a snip. I also found them to be honest. To illustrate I enquired about them organizing transport from the hotel to the activity. They had a quote for £300 for 16 lads which they said was excessive and said it would be better for me to search for something myself (we ended up paying £100 for a mini bus for the whole weekend which a mate got at a cut price deal). In conclusion i'd definently use deisgnaventure again if i was plannin a stag/ special occasion/ big birthday outing. Manchester probably isn't the best place if you're a big group but that's not the companies fault and they counteracted this by adding bar passes which was invaluable! The only very slight thing which dropped the rating to 4 rather than 5 was the guest list thing but as I say this wasn't a big issue. Overall great weekend.
AWESOME BRISTOL WEEKEND!!
Fantastic stag do in Bristol thanks to DesignAventure. Excellent customer service from the girls in the office and everything went exactly as promised. The hotel and activities organised were brilliant. Great value for money and would definitely recommend.
Brilliant stag do!
Had an awesome time with a package in Manchester. We did karting, which was the best karting I have been on and group agreed. The hotel was fantastic, Hilton hotel, could hardly believe we were booked into it when details came through. We had no trouble what so ever getting into the bars and clubs on the evening, even with the stag in fancy dress. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for ideas and packages, absolutely fantastic and the value for money is unbelievable, thanks so much!
