Full description
Begin your walking tour in Bratislava by meeting your guide at 12:00 PM in front of the main entrance of the Park Inn Danube Hotel. Listen to a short, basic introduction about Bratislava and Slovakia. The guide will shed light on the history of one of the youngest capital cities and states of Europe. Hear about the ancient history of Slovakia, when the old Slavs, the predecessor of modern Slovaks, inhabited Slovakia and created the Great Moravia Empire.  Your guide will share legends from the time when Bratislava was the capital city of the Hungarian Kingdom and Hungarian kings and queens were crowned there. The story continues to the time of Czechoslovakia. Hear about the dark times during Slovak communism and also about the hope which brought upon the Velvet Revolution, eventually leading to Slovakia's 2004 membership in the European Union.  Discover the Opera House and the House of Reduta as you continue to the Main Square, passing by Old Town Hall. On Franciscan Square, see the oldest building in Bratislava, the Franciscan Church. Head onto Biela Street and Michalska Street to Michael's Gate. Pass by historical buildings and palaces on Venturska Street and Panska Street. Your tour ends at St. Martin's Cathedral.

While the tour was concise and brief, we felt it was structured and presented in way that made it difficult to follow when one is not familiar with Slovak and Austrian-Hungarian history. Lots of names, years, and wars where mentioned, without putting them into context. I would have preferred less figures, more human stories.

Sehr gute und informative Führung. Der Guide war sehr gut vorbereitet und konnte auch zusätzliche Fragen zur Stadt beantworten. Die Führung sollte eine Stunde dauern, war aber erst nach ca. 90 Minuten beendet. Dies war kein Nachteil. Es war ein entspannter Bummel durch die Altstadt von Bratislava mit vielen Informationen zur Stadt und den Menschen, die dort leben. Danke!!!
