Ok, this is a strange plea. My best friend got engaged and made me his best man and I'm responsible for a bachelor party (he's more excited by that than the prospect of marriage). He loves gambling and him and his boring friends are pushing for a Vegas long weekend. This is just the mother of all banality to me and I'm desperately trying to convince everyone to try a more interesting locale out.
I like crazy places, at least different places. I'm thinking somewhere in south Caribbean like Aruba, somewhere that has casinos to suit the knuckle draggers, but also a place I can scuba and then get my friend and I to hop over to Venezuela. I figure if I'm going to have to blow money traveling for a stupid bachelor party, I might as well try to work in an interesting mini trip.
What do y'all suggest? What's a good Caribbean or other destination that features gambling, interesting stuff, won't cost the other guys a fortune to get to from Northeast US, and could possibly work in a Venezuela or other suitably interesting tag on option?
I'm looking for ideas. A dictatorial regime mixed with scenery and gambling for $400 RT out of Newark would be a dream!
Thanks in advance for any help,
Jason
