Gabby was so incredibly knowledgeable and fun!! She truly loves her home, Bratislava! We were so lucky she showed us all the great sights and even found time to show us couple little pubs so we could enjoy local beers! Such a fantastic day! Would recommend to anyone!
This review put the biggest smile on my face :-). Thank you! Bratislava has so many hidden gems and I love sharing them, whether it's a stunning viewpoint or a cozy pub where locals actually go. So glad you had a fantastic day, and cheers to that local beer! 🍺 Hope to see you back someday!

My wife and I took a day trip from Vienna to the beautiful City of Bratislava. Our tour guide, Gabriela, was simply terrific. She was on time, flexible and tailored our specific interests to our visit. The day was relaxing and filled with humor and concise information. The lunch at the former monastery in Bratislava is a don't miss. In summary, the trip greatly exceeded our expectations. Thanks Gabi for a fabulous time in your home city.
What a lovely review, thank you both so much! I love when guests leave feeling like they truly got to know Bratislava rather than just passing through. I'm so glad the day felt relaxed and personal, that's exactly what I aim for. And yes, lunch at the monastery is always a highlight! Hope to welcome you back someday.
It was a very pleasant day in Bratislava, providing a nice contrast with Vienna. Our guide, Gabriela, showed us various parts of the city only a native can…we really appreciated it. She also took us to a restaurant offering traditional Slovak dishes.
It was a good experience and not very tiring. We were able to see the most important points of interest in the city.
Muito obrigada pela sua avaliação! 😊 Foi um prazer receber visitantes de Portugal – fiquei muito feliz por vos ter no tour. Estou contente que tenham aproveitado a experiência e conseguido ver os pontos mais importantes da cidade sem se sentirem cansados. Desejo vos muitas experiências lindas nas vossas próximas viagens!
Our guide, Katarina was the best!!! She gave us so much information and history about the area. We had a real traditional Slovakian lunch. This was the highlight of our trip to Vienna! Highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for this lovely review! 😊 I’m really happy to hear you had such a great time with Katka. She truly is amazing, and I’ll definitely share your words with her. It means a lot that you enjoyed all the stories and history, and I’m especially glad the traditional Slovak lunch was a highlight of your trip - that’s exactly the kind of experience we want to create. Thank you again for being such wonderful guests, and I hope your travels continue to be just as beautiful!
Our guide Erik was the perfect host for our private tour of Bratislava. As a local, he shared the history and his insight into the major tourist attractions. He adjusted the tour to our interests as well as the weather (it was freezing cold, windy and raining). Definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for this beautiful review! 😊 I’m really happy to hear you had such a great time with Erik – I’ll definitely share your kind words with him. The weather sounded quite challenging, but that’s exactly why we design our tours as private and flexible – with the comfort of the car, we always do our best to adjust the program so you can still enjoy the experience to the fullest. Thank you again for trusting us, and I wish you many more wonderful travels ahead and sunny days!
Every day of learning and cultural experiences with our very competent guide Catarina. She arrived on time, she had snacks and drinks in the car and she was a great driver. We spent the day learning history and culture of the area and she was an incredible wealth of knowledge. She had a great sense of humour and we loved spending our time with her. Highly, highly recommend. We were able to see the influences of Russian occupation along with western influences, architecture, and art.
Thank you so much for this beautiful and detailed review! 😊 I’m truly happy to hear how much you enjoyed your time with my friend and guide Katarina – she really is an incredible guide, and I’ll make sure to share your kind words with her. I’m also so glad you liked the little snacks – we love them too! 😊 As this is a local experience, we always try to let you taste what we enjoy here and introduce you to our favorite local specialties. And yes, the contrast in history is exactly what makes Bratislava so special for us – from ancient times through different empires all the way to the socialist period, there’s so much to discover. Thank you again for spending the day with us, and I wish you many more beautiful and inspiring travels ahead!
It was a private tour, me, my wife and the guide. It was fantastic, both for Bratislava being a worthwhile destination, and for our guide, which was wonderful.
Muito obrigada pelo seu comentário! Fico muito feliz em saber que gostaram do tour e da visita a Bratislava. A Katarina é realmente uma guia maravilhosa e vou partilhar as suas palavras com ela. Espero recebê-los novamente numa próxima viagem! 😊
