Viscount8 Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 So I've been to Prague a few years back, and there was a fair amount of action there. I am thinking of going back. However, maybe see somewhere different. What do you guys think as the best spots in Eastern Europe now? I have been reading a lot about Athens and I think Wawrsaw has prospects there for cruising. Would anyone suggest Talinn, Bucharest, Serbia, Bulgaria or Slovakia? Quote

Members scott456 Posted January 14, 2024 Members Posted January 14, 2024 I was in Warsaw for a week in December as a side trip from Berlin. There were some offerings(for hire) on my Grindr apps, but not good quality enough for me. I think the A-list ones have all gone to western Europe, and probably the whole eastern Europe is about the same: a lot of offers, but lousy quality. Quote
jensplatta Posted January 14, 2024 Posted January 14, 2024 For Europe in general, nothing compares to Madrid, Barcelona, Paris and Berlin in terms of quantity, range of options and accessibility. Athens is reasonably hard work but cheaper. However, it can't be compared to the destinations above in terms of easy access and quantify. There is a thread here about Athens that will give you a very good idea. Also, sightseeing-wise and I know it is subjective, it is not the most attractive place other than the Acropolis area and Plaka. If you are feeling adventurous, I think Istanbul is worth trying maybe combined with one more traditional destination. Heba as-sa3udeya 1 Quote

Some of them did a bit of gay porn when they were starting out. Has anybody ever heard of straight porn actors working in Prague doing gay for pay escort work? Quote

From my (limited) personal experience and (very extensive) recommendations of my friends, some of them local, I'd say that Slovakia, Bulgaria and the Baltic States (Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius) are definitely not as vibrant as what you've experienced in Prague. I love Prague, go there regularly and know reasonably well what it can offer. Slovakia is extremely parochial with no talk about any scene per se (according to my Slovak friend). My visit to Bulgaria (Sofia) was some years ago (about 7-9 years ago) and I very much hope something has changed there since. I've heard good reports about former Yugoslavia (Serbia, Croatia, etc) but I don't have personal experience with them. My guess is, that the two top Eastern European destinations - i.e. Prague and Budapest - retain their leading position and cannot be rivalled by anyone in the region. If I were you, having had some good experience of Prague, I'd book a trip to Budapest. Best of luck and do share your trip report and thoughts when you are back from your frolicks! Quote

12is12 Posted March 10, 2024 Posted March 10, 2024 R they only on apps, or r there any physical venues? Quote

Budapest is meh compared to Prague. Athens is great and highly underrated. dscrtsldnbi 1 Quote

Hunqz/ Grindr/ online + sauna (Alexander) + a few gay massage places I have not done the street thing: that area in question is quite dodgy and seems really unsafe, in my opinion. I personally just stick around the Gazi neighborhood which has great (non-touristy) restaurants and the nightlife scene. young11 1 Quote

I went to this one but there maybe many others: https://gay-massage.gr/maser/ My recommendation - ask for Angelos 🙂 (would also like to try Giannis, but he was on leave when I was there last sumemr). DM for me details/further questions. young11 1 Quote
Members funic Posted March 16 Members Posted March 16 Greece is one of the best places these days, it has this combination of western development and low wages that gives you horny Greek tops for 100 eur/h. Such prices used to be the norm anywhere else in western Europe (save London). My favourite area in the entire world would be the Balkans, if you don't mind the gritty but charming and full of life post-Yugoslavia vibe. TheBossBabyback 1 Quote

I am heading there in May - tirana, skopje, belgrade... Gladly. If you check my profile history you'll find some posts about the region. Here's a generic writedown of the region I wrote a while ago. My favorite country overall is Montenegro (in the summer) where many Balkan tops spend their summer on the seaside towns. Serbia would be actually first in terms of men, but you'd actually need an actual reason to visit (it's hardly the most beautiful country in the region, quite the opposite, though the men really make it worth a visit themselves). Montenegro is also exceptionally beautiful and relatively off the beaten track of mass tourism (most tourists you'll see around are from the Balkan themselves and plenty of cruise ships from pretty much all the known world). Of course stay away from Podgorica, which is one of the ugliest capitals in the entire continent. A good compromise for men and sights would be Bulgaria, which has both the sights and the men. Sofia has plenty of handsome men and it's worth a visit by itself. The smaller beach cities (Varna and the others on the Black Sea) often have a few hidden surprises when the temperatures go up again. If you were to travel now (or generally speaking, Autumn/Winter), Sofia and Belgrade would be the only two places I'd bother with. Note that I'm taking in account both sights and men, nobody can deny there are so many much more beautiful places in Croatia, Slovenia and so on. Bosnia is gorgeous but not much offer over there. Never been to Slovenia. Can't recommend specific escort names as my favourites seem to move around the region and deactivate their profiles during the winter season when there's very little foreign tourism involved. Hope this was helpful. Quote
12is12 Posted Friday at 03:32 PM Posted Friday at 03:32 PM It was, thx! With ur permission, a followup question: "In terms of men" - it's only apps, or r there any venues (clubs, saunas, GHs, etc)? funic 1 Quote
Members funic Posted Friday at 03:46 PM Members Posted Friday at 03:46 PM It's the Balkans, a region with manly macho culture and deeply rooted homophobia. At best, you'll find a couple of saunas and a bar in some capitals and major cities. Hunqz/Romeo is surprisingly quite well stacked with XXL tops (pretty much all from Croatia, Serbia and Bulgaria), Grindr may deliver some interesting surprises. Just writing this triggered a nice flashback of feeling torn apart by a XXL Bulgarian top with a gymnast/calisthenics body. I should travel there more often. Quote
12is12 Posted Friday at 03:55 PM Posted Friday at 03:55 PM So Romeo it is. Do u remember how much they charge? Any youngsters for free? Hotels allow hosting ? Quote
Members funic Posted Friday at 04:01 PM Members Posted Friday at 04:01 PM 100eur/h but that was before the inflation burst, might be higher. I wouldn't pay more than 150 even in case of a literal Slavic god, it's a small fortune over there. Youngsters might be interested in meeting with an exotic foreigner who will leave town soon without risk of the entire neighborhood finding out. Hotels are fine (it's not Saudi Arabia) but I'd rather rent a single room apartment and enjoy the local sausages without a single worry. Quote

speedoo1 Posted Sunday at 10:24 AM Posted Sunday at 10:24 AM Admittedly, no first hand experience but I would be disappointed if the going rate is as high as 100 Euro in the Balkans (maybe in Croatia or Serbia it is). For sure their initial asking price is 100E but as always these asking prices are subject to negotiation. For Bulgaria I would def expect the majority of next-door top guys to accept less than 100 Euro. Quote
