Prague v. Budapest for party scene -- completely torn. Please help!
 
Alright, so I will have a couple of nights during my Europe trip to spend in either Budapest or Prague. Obviously, I cannot do both, but I am absolutely torn on which to choose.

My main interests when traveling are meeting new people, drinking, going out, talking to girls, that sort of thing. I love meeting both locals and fellow travelers. I am 26 and will likely be solo.

So, which city is better for a good party scene? Please advise.

i should think that Prague would be the better bet, but my daughter met some rather unsavory characters there. She still talks about her "escape" , and that was 12 yrs ago.

I think either works; beer was way cheaper in Prague.

Prague seems to have more of a rep as a party town.

But - in either place - be wary of extremely attractive young women who find you irresistible. They are often professionals who lure you into bars, have you pay for their drinks - and find out that at the end of the evening you have a $500 bar bill.

Stick to more average young women - unless the cash means nothing to you.

What happens after you pay the $500 bar tab?

It's more about what happens if you DONT pay the bar tab.

Does Prague feel like Disneyland? I want something authentic but also want to party my d1©k off since this is my only vacation of the year. Booze and women are my main focus, and obviously I would prefer local women. Which one do you recommend for that?
