Your journey begins with a comfortable hour-long drive from your Vienna address to Bratislava. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a licensed guide who will lead you on a two-hour exploration of the Slovak capital. Your tour commences at Hviezdoslavovo Square, where you'll uncover the architectural wonders of the Opera House and Reduta Building. As you stroll past the intriguing “Man at Work” and Schöner Náci statues, you'll find yourself in the Main Square. Here, take a moment to appreciate the Roland Fountain, steeped in legends of knight Roland and Hungarian kings' coronation festivities.

Capture a memorable photo with a Napoleonic soldier near the Old Town Hall before visiting the Franciscan Church, Bratislava’s oldest sacred building. This is where the knights of the Golden Spurs were once knighted. Your journey continues through Franciscan Square to the magnificent Primate’s Palace, the site where the Pressburg peace treaty was signed between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Napoleon. Marvel at Michael’s Gate and visit the palace that once hosted the Hungarian Parliament. You'll also have an opportunity to explore Academia Istropolitana, the first university in the Hungarian Kingdom, before concluding your tour near St. Martin’s Cathedral.

Should you opt for lunch, savour a two-course Slovak meal at a local restaurant or take an hour to explore at your leisure. The day concludes with a private two-hour transfer to Budapest, where you'll be dropped off at your address.
