8. New Orleans
You can’t go wrong with N’awlins for one of the best bachelor party locations with a distinctive edge and southern charm. Bonus points if you can time it to coincide with Mardi Gras, but anytime is a good time in the Big Easy. Just head to Bourbon Street in the heart of the French Quarter to bar hop along the strip. Grab a go-cup to cart your cocktail from one venue to the next. Don’t miss Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop, the oldest bar in the US, or Pat O’Brien’s, who’s claim to fame is serving up more alcohol per day than any other joint in the world.
7. Cabo San Lucas
Tell the bride-to-be the guys are going marlin fishing. She doesn’t have to know what else this beautiful Baja Mexican resort town has to offer a bachelor party gang. Get your tequila fill at El Squid Roe, Cabo Wabo or any number of wild nightlife venues, then recuperate on the beach the morning after. Repeat.
