Relaxing history tour
Nice relaxing trip. Very knowledgeable guide.
It is a great day trip. ...
It is a great day trip. The guide in Bratislava was excellent and provided a great deal of information about the country and its history. The old city is relatively compact so even people like myself with walking issues can manage it. The one downside was the amount of free time - 6 hours was too much. Fortunately, the catamaran company gave me an earlier sailing for a 10 euro surcharge.

Bratislava Day Trip
Overall it was an interesting trip, with much to see enroute along the way via coach and by boat along the Danube River. Our guide in Bratislava, Maria, was very patient and provided our group with much history and unique perspectives on Slovakia and Bratislava in particular. At times it wasn’t always easy to hear her given the surroundings, but she was happy to repeat explanations. Likewise, the Oldtimer bus tour to Bratislava Castle was most informative and a relaxing way to see the city. The only downside to the day was that the Vienna tour organiser just met us at the departure point then left us in the hands of the driver who either didn’t know where we were to be dropped off, or simply didn’t care. As a consequence, we spent nearly an hour milling around the drop off point trying to connect up with our guides. We eventually connected with the guides but by then, some in our group went off and did their own thing. My advice is for anyone taking part in this tour, ensure you have the Vienna based organisers’ contact number, should matters not work out as expected.
A great day trip from Vienna!
This was a perfect day trip to enjoy Bratislava. This tour allowed me to experience a new city and new country from Vienna versus actually staying there. It was perfect!
