モドラのセラミックツアー

Our guide was knowledgeable and even helped us find the perfect place for a birthday dinner. We were very disappointed as the tour info said we would have a chance to make or paint pottery and this was not offered during the tour.

Majolika ceramic factory in Modra exceeded our expectations. Our guide Martina with her natural flare made the tour fun and presented interesting facts in a lite and easy way. The whole tour was interesting from start to finish. We got to see people at work creating the pieces of art right on the spot as well as we could give it a go dipping a piece of pottery in a glaze. When in Modra, this tour is a must.

We had a great time and learned a lot on our tour of the ceramic factory in Modra. Our tour guide, Martina, greeted us as though we were old friends, and made the tour so much better with her warmth and kindness. She was knowledgeable and efficient, and we left the tour knowing that choosing it was a great decision!

We had a wonderful time in Modra, specially at the Ceramic factory. Martina was our guide. She explained everything beautifully. Mr. Petrash gave us a live demonstration of how the pottery is made. My friend and my daughter did it themselves, too. It was amazing. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and it was completely worth it.

This was an interesting and educational tour. One sees artisans sculpting, painting, and baking the handmade pieces. Martina was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic… a 10 star tour guide. She even took me to a small local shop to buy a postcard for my collection. However, be advised that ‘transportation provided’ means within Modra. A taxi or train/tram is needed to get to Modra from Bratislava.

This was a wonderful tour. You can see all the stages in the production process and even get to try throwing a pot yourself. Now that was fun! Everyone at the factory was friendly and welcoming, and Martina, the guide, went above and beyond the call of duty. She not only took me on a wonderful tour but picked me up at the train station and gave a (delicious!) local recommendation for lunch afterwards. I cannot possibly recommend this tour more, especially for solo travellers. So many experiences turn out to be "minimum 2 participants" or prohibitively expensive. This was fun, interesting and a morning well-spent. One other point is that it's a simple, short, cheap and comfortable train ride from Bratislava.

What an awesome morning out!!! Martina was so accommodating, the actual location does not normally do tours on a Saturday but as they were having a sale were ok for us to come! Martina met us outside the factory and guided us in, then gave us the ins and outs of Modra's extensive history in Ceramics. She then introduced us to the master Potter who was happy to guide us in our first time every attempting to mould clay (patience was his forte)! Martina made the whole experience fun and casual and we must say it was our highlite for our time in Bratislava!
