Bratislava post-communism tour by classic car in English, with pickup, snacks, and stops from the Velvet Revolution to Slavin.

“If you are at all interested in history and the transition a city/country made from a totalitarian regime to a democratic one, you will thoroughly enjoy this tour. Our guide, Branno was very knowledgeable, passionate and entertaining. He picked us up in a Soviet era car and proceeded to drive us to key locations from that period. He had a photo book that showed us major events that happened at the various places we visited. And he even brought snacks. Great value for the money”

Bratislava wine tasting in a historic cellar with an English-speaking sommelier, tasting 3 to up to 72 Slovak wines from top regions.

“So much fun. The sommelier was so informed, answered my every question, and made me feel so comfortable. The choice of wines were exceptional and having the grape, region and expected tastes explained prior to each wine made the whole experience so much more valuable. I would absolutely recommend. I could see other groups doing the tasting without the sommelier, but I felt having the wines explained in such a passionate and considerate way made the experience all the more rewarding.”
