twice now, probably going in september aswell

is quite a small place, we just walk around anywhere and everywhere and stop in most pubs/clubs/coffeeshop

alot of the clubs wouldn't let us in tho maybe cos we were a group of 6 lads

Stay in the Botel, go to the banana bar, casa rosso, and theres a nice enlish pub in the main square, near the museum.

lovely place, had a great time there

be careful of the random crack dealers fighting eachother in the streets, and the stalker types

the best way to get rid is when they say "are you english" you say "no, we're not" that confuses them

oh, and if you pretend not to understand the bus drivers, you get free transport i think its free in the day anyway

depends what sort of thing you're going for, theres loads of stuff to do apart from the sex and drugs.

theres all the historic stuff too, its a beautiful city as well as drugs capital of the world.

so yeah, i'd say it was, but Paris is much much better for a couple, and its cheaper to get to.

yeah is a great place, isn't as bad as it sounds, not overun by drug dealers or drugs etc, thats just a side to it you can experience if you want.

is lots of interesting stuff there to do, depends what you into, is some boat restaurants too

if you can stop in the Raddison which is two mins from Dam square; its fantastic inside

if you wanna go out for a real good meal either the Raddisons restaurant or Jamie Oliver's "Fifteen" are very good and not overly expensive

theres plenty to see and do regardless of the weather

as mentioned just watch for the overly pushy dealers
