Bratislava Cruises, Slovakia

View Itineraries

The Slovakian capital spans the centuries with its old-and-new appeal. Bratislava Castle’s the standout site – you can see it from practically anywhere in the city, thanks to its hilltop spot beside the Danube River. The pumpkin-coloured rooftops of the old town are slotted together like Tetris blocks, and you’ll see gold crowns studded into the pavement that mark the city’s church-filled Coronation Route. Ornate opera houses and a turquoise-tinted Art Nouveau church are among the signature sights, and beer and dumplings is the go-to combo in most restaurants. At the modern end of the scale, the UFO Bridge – which resembles a flying saucer – has a viewing deck above the city skyline.

Visit a Slovak Home

On this outing, you’ll travel to the village of Senkvice – in Slovakia’s wine country – to get to know a local family during a visit to their home. You’ll kick things off with a 60-minute journey, with your English-speaking guide to the village, where your hosts will be waiting to show you around their home. You’ll learn about their daily routine as you walk around the grounds, and you’ll be able to give grape harvesting a go. Alternatively, you can head to the kitchen and learn how to make a traditional Slovak meal. You’ll also have the opportunity to sample a variety of sweet and savoury snacks. Once you’ve found out all there is to know about their way of life, you’ll get back on the coach for the return journey to the port. On the way, you’ll pass through Bratislava’s city centre for a look at its Baroque palaces and hilltop castle.
