This walking tour was amazing and I would highly recommend this tour with Sebastian! This is my 3rd trip to Bratislava and I learnt so much from Sebastian who is extremely knowledgable. The group was a nice size and I made some friends along the way! Thanks Sebastian 😀

Great way to start out a trip. Sebastian was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Bratislava, and gave some very helpful advice and recommendations.

Sebastian gave us a really good tour with lots of historical information, advice and recommendations. So much so that we visited a restaurant which he recommended, immediately after the tour and had a wonderful lunch. We also visited a cafe (Pasteleria) the next day for coffee and cake and had the best cakes (Kremes) on the whole of our trip, including Vienna! And finally we visited another restaurant recommendation on our last night, which was also excellent (Bratislava Flagship). Thank You Sebastian.

Insightful and fun, easy to go along, a good starting point to explore Bratislava. Just enough history old and recent to get a glimpse of the city. Sebastian is kind and fun and knowledgeable.

Sebastian was an excellent guide. He moved us at a great pace - no slow lingering, no fast pace race. His knowledge was impeccable, but just as importantly, he chose just the right amount of information to share (i.e. it never got boring or dragged on). His recommendations for where to return, where to eat, etc. were excellent. We almost always book private tours, almost never group tours. The price is so low, we were concerned about the adage, "you can get what you pay for." Nothing could have been further from the truth.

Great insight into the history of Bratislava. Time was long enough to get a real feel for the history and take the main sights in.
