Tallinn and Warsaw for hot eastern european chicks.
Berlin is very cool but fucking cold.
And i hear that the hookers in Rotterdam are pretty special...

ya my friend matt went to croatia, he said similar of lithuania. basically go to a bar and be surrounded by models. if not barca is always well good.

my recent research would suggest that cologne isn't a spectacularly good city to visit from a tourist point of view.  dr kruger's sex shop was quite illuminating, but other than that it was cold, wet and rather dull...

I've been to Koeln before with school and on my own. It's a nice enough city, but after the cathedral, there isn't much at all...
(except koelsch... mmm koelsch)

I was disapointed with Amsterdam, I'm not sure what I expected but I guess either tacky, sleezy, sexy or amusing but in the end it was just sad. Bored women in pants and bras looking sad and cheap and not sexy (not sure if they were mind) standing in windows with lots of pissed blokes on stag weekends. Poor.

I really rate berlin, not bored even after 3 years here. I guess you're planning a shorter break than that so I would recommend poland.

I've been to Krakow and Wroclaw, both worth a visit but the former has more to see. I've not been but heard good things about Gdansk, might be worth trying. Anyway wherever you choose it's pretty cheap and the Polish are a good crowd, friendly, open and good fun. Importantly the girls are attractive and some complain that polish men aren't - so that's good for the chances.

There's a lot more to Amsterdam than the red-light district though - outside of that small area it's nothing like as sleazy. Loads of nice bars, mainly very friendly locals and a relaxed pace to life. It's hard to find cannabis cafes (if that's your thing) that aren't dark and dingy, but there are a few that are nice places to hang out.

Has anyone been to Prague recently? I went when I was a kid and it was full on Eastern Bloc, but some say that now it's all just stag do's and Mc Donalds...is it really that bad?

I went on my stag do Bubs  :D . yes it is a lot of stag do's but you only really notice them on the plane and in the strip clubs. still a beautiful city

Gdansk is an amazing place I have a little brother living there and my Dad has shown me pics of Gdansk an it looks incredible, Sunny beaches lots of good people and very cheap alchohol food electricals etc. from what i've heard.

I'd go with Prague - nicest city i've been to in Europe (although it was about 8 years ago when i visited so not sure what it's like now)

Those waterfalls are amazing.

It is quite amazing, two falls in to a thirty metre deep gorge. A little underwhelming when you're above them though...

I loved Helsinki. Lovely city and climbing on the outskirts (didn't do any). Disappointing lack of beautiful blondes though

munich during oktoberfest isn't bad... for one night only though
