There are quite a few ideas for crawls already posted to this forum.

I’m looking for ideas that would fit with certain criteria. The annual outing with the 5 other chaps from the office involves taking whatever money we have won and saved up from our punts on the football fixed-odds coupons throughout the year (about £300-£400, although this is normally less than we stake) and spending it on a novel crawl.

Our previous outings (some of which I have added to this forum) include a Severn Valley Railway crawl, Thames Clippers, Midland Metro and the Trans-Pennine Real Ale Trail. You may spot a transport theme here but it’s not obligatory, although it does provide variety.

I’ve done some local Black Country crawls, the last one involved hiring a local minibus driver for the day: http://www.theme-tours.co.uk/ and I did the Black Country Beer Bus for my stag do: http://www.blackcountrytours.co.uk/

A couple of years back I also did a helicopter pub crawl from Sydney. I can highly recommend it but our usual budget won’t stretch to that, let alone a flight to the other side of the world!

It’s just a day out but overnight stays are not out of the question although preferably within the UK. Something more imaginative than a walk around a town centre would fit our complicated self-imposed rules. At least half a dozen real ale pubs should keep us happy.

Grateful for any suggestions please
