European Travel advice

[Guest arktos]

OK, so I have a free, round-trip ticket (due to a past cancellation) to Europe. I need some advice from you guys-- where's the best (or a couple of the best) travel destinations in Europe where you get a high concentration of escort/adult services and value for your money?

 

I've read about Amsterdam-- are there any others that may be lesser known but "bargains" within reasonable travel from a hub city?

 

Please help!! I'd really like to take advantage of this opportunity.

 

Thanks loads ;=)

From my recent experience, Prague and Budapest are beautiful, inexpensive cities with lots of street trade but no reliable escort services. (There was mention of a bar in Prague with dancing boys and private rooms - see the European section, Drakes thread. I don't know about it.)

 

Amsterdam, on the other hand, has several reliable services with boys of all colors, types, and nationalities.

The problem with London (apart from the weather ...) is that while it *is* in Europe, and it *is* easy to get cheap flights, and it *does* have a very large escort population it can also be *very* expensive ...

[Guest MrB]

That's certainly true of everything except escort rates... expect to pay no more than £100, that's $150 for the first hour. Put the savings toward your hotel room?

 

Have fun wherever you decide to go!

Thanks to those who have responded-- I was wondering about Berlin or Paris-- any advantages there?

[adriano46]

I'd completely forget Paris : way too expensive on all fronts.

 

Berlin could be an adventure as it has many gy clubs (for every taste imaginable) and a good number of escorts, but aside from ANDREAS I have heard little about the others.

 

I still find Amsterdam the best bargain for all types of fun, but maybe it's a personal thing. I like London, of course, but while the escort fees are low in general, the city is so spread out it is hard to find your way unless you have a good command of the TUBE (which I admit is easier to navigate than most underground subway systems).

 

On Amsterdam, you can get a very good rate through internet hotel services (see all the sites available on YAHOO); often even the 4- and 5-star hotels (especially in low season) are almost giving away rooms.

 

Plus, the advantage of Amsterdam is that it is concentrated: most of the clubs, bars, saunas and houses of boys are in 3 areas, easily accessible.

 

BUT - too bad you didn't come to Europe in Decemebr when the $$$ reigned... now it has taken a dive, so watch your exchange rates.

Check threads in the European Escort message board for Madrid and Barcelona. They're VERY inexpensive: decent hotels for about $45 a night, WITH private bath, and escorts are plentiful and cheap (around $35). It's not in Europe, but if your free ticket isn't restricted to Europe you might want to read what someone wrote about Rio in the thread on Window Shopping in São Paulo. . . The weather will certainly be better this time of year!

LAST EDITED ON Jan-12-01 AT 08:32AM (EST)[p]Berlin is great. Dollar is strong against the mark. Very young and hip crowd, especially some big fun clubs in former East Berlin (which change almost weekly). And one of my fav escorts is there, Sergey (whom I reviewed here). Other escorts were good also, if you like tall, lean muscled, big-dicked dudes. See the back of mags Siegessauele and Sergey for ads. And there's lots of hot free action in the dark rooms which are in almost every bar and club. Gutes gluck.

 

Later.

 

PS. Don't believe MrB's cock measurements on Sergey, he admitted to me that the action was so hot that his bifocals fogged up.

I spent about two weeks in Paris last summer and found that it was actually cheaper than Florence or Rome, where I frequently spend months at a time. And Venice is expensive beyond belief. I don't know about escorts in Paris, however. But then I'm not sure I'd want to spend my time and money in Europe looking for escorts when the Stateside offerings are so rich and so expert. Europe has a lot to offer that the U.S. doesn't have. But it's my impression that the U.S. is way ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to gorgeous men doing what they do best.

Berlin is just a great, great place. It has some of the best hustler bars in the world. Everyone is very friendly and people

really like Americans. It is a more cosmopolitan city than Amsterdam, so there are many things to do. The rebuilding of East Berlin is extraordinary. I should say that hustler bars are usually not my things, but the choices are so great and cheap that it is just wonderful. Go now, a year from now I will be overrun with people.

[Guest MrB]

T,

 

 

That's *two* beers you owe me

[Guest MrB]

I like Berlin a lot too, but 99% of that is because of Andreas/EuroStud, I never seen to find much time to do much other exploring

Of course, can't believe I forgot to mention that, Barcelona and Madrid are just great. Madrid will be cold, but Barcelona won't. And it always rocks
