Rotterdam bachelor parties are for groups searching for a way to experience the relaxed laws and liberal attitudes of the Netherlands without going to Amsterdam, which is a little too intense for some.

Those planning a bachelor party in Rotterdam can rest assured that the city has plenty of locations where patrons can sit and savor potent pot and hashish. The city has a very lax attitude towards cannabis overall, so keep an eye out for those “coffee houses” that made the country so famous.

Although you won’t find a red light district here, Rotterdam bachelor parties can still incorporate visits to strip clubs and erotic services. Rotterdam’s strip clubs have the expected stages where the racy dances take place, but some clubs also have private areas with plush beds, hot tubs, and saunas. There are also brothels in the city that can be located with minimal effort. In other words, how far you push the limits during a Rotterdam bachelor party is entirely up to you.

Aside from strip clubs, there are dozens of night clubs you can visit during a Rotterdam bachelor party

. Many establishments specialize in house and dance music, and with closing times of 6 a.m. at many hotspots, you can groove to spinning tracks all night long. Accommodations – from budget hotels to four-star rooms – are readily available, and the city has enough restaurants and types of cuisine to satisfy any palate.
