Fairytale Castle - It was a great experience to have this day excursion with Betty as a guide, the castle is amazing like in a fairytale! I recommend it !

Bojnice & Cicmany combo great - Betty (her nickname) was our guide for the day on what ended up as a private tour. Betty was really sweet and knowledgeable. Upon arrival at Bojnice Castle, Betty had a brief discussion with the ticketing office for the castle, finding they had changed their access from a full castle to two options. This was fine with us because my wife and I were both tired from our activities leading up to this tour. The castle doesn't have many original furnishings but has donated pieces from the right periods. The castle and grounds were gorgeous. Cicmany is a small town with a museum and probably about 1-2 dozen decorated buildings. The village is a short stop on the itinerary and there is plenty of time to see what is available there.

Bojnice an cicimany - Long ride there but worth the trip,, this is the most like what you expect a castle to be. Renovated and updated through the years and an amazing experience. Our guide was excellent.

A few weeks before the tour, Betty contacted us to let us know that a special event was taking place at the Bonjnice Castle that day and that all the areas would not be fully accessible. Instead, she suggested visiting the Cerveny kamen Red Stone Castle instead and also adding Devin Castle with a boat ride back to Bratislava. Red Stone Castle and Devin Castle were fantastic we were very glad Betty gave us this suggestion. At Red Stone Castle, there was an added attraction of seeing falcons and owls, which was unexpected. This was one of the best tour that we have every taken. </p> <p>Betty was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable of not only the 2 castles we visited, but also of Slovakia and Bratislava the cultures and traditions. If you take this tour, you must ask for Betty as your tour guide it will make your tour doubly enjoyable.</p>

Wonderful tour. There was only the 2 of... - <p>Wonderful tour. There was only the 2 of us in a car with a wonderful guide. The castle was brilliant and then we went to a traditional village which was great to see. Used Viator many times and will certainly be using them again</p>

Meh... - It was not a good experience. From the beginning, the guide showed that she does not know how to drive -she almost hit the car in front- and did not know how to get to the places -she stopped constantly to ask for directions, one of those times was at an intersection on the highway. Her knowledge of history was very good. The town of Cicmany leaves much to be desired, and the museum is not at all pleasant, it is really creapy. We ended up very upset with the company for not caring about our safety and not hiring a driver who knows how to drive. It is not the guide's fault and we do not want to affect her in any way. Not recomended!

Terrible Tour, Unhelpful and Rude Tour Company - We do not recommend this tour. Our tour guide informed us he was sick only after we started our tour and we then had to spend a 10 hour day with the guide while he coughed and sneezed. Our health was disregarded by the tour company. The tour of the castle itself was also very poor. The tour the castle offers is only in Slovak meaning the tour guide has to translate the tour. However, while our tour guide was translating what he remembered about each room, the castle guide started talking about the next room meaning our tour guide missed most of what was said about each room. Our guide read from the pamphlet that we were given and did not offer any extra details. The castle tour is completely uninformative and gives very little detail and history. The castle is not worth a 2.5 hour drive and expensive tour. Additionally, our tour guide was an aggressive driver as me made very risky passes that nearly caused head on collisions and gave the middle finger to another driver. The tour company was also less than helpful when we reached out about our complaints. We expressed our frustration about being picked up by a sick tour guide, the lack of information given on the tour, and the unsafe driving by our guide. The company took over a week to respond to our email (and only responded after we sent a follow up email) and essentially told us that we were wrong and the tour was executed as planned. The company showed no compassion for sending us a sick guide that provided little information about the castle. We were told that details were not given in the castle because we do not know anything about Slovak history and there is no way we could have comprehended the information. We do not recommend this tour or any tour offered by Tripito based on our experience on the tour and our experience with the tour company manager. You will not receive what you pay for and the company will not help you.
