“At first I thought the price was too high. But our driver was FANASTIC. I think his name was Tony. He was so informative and gave us an amazing tour of Bratislava. He was able to answer all our questions. He even took us to the castle area that wasn't in the tour description. I can't say enough positive about this tour. Well worth the extra money.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 17 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $324Best value

Spend about 10 hours moving from Budapest to Vienna by air-conditioned vehicle, stopping in artistic Szentendre, grand Esztergom, and Bratislava Old Town. A small group of up to 15 people, local guidance, luggage space, and hotel drop-off make this a useful sightseeing transfer, not just a ride.

“Martina, our guide was wonderful and somehow handled both driving and guiding. She was able to tailor the trip to our interests (food and history) and point out some interesting local snacks that we hadn't tried yet (langos is amazing!).”
