Bratislava is well worth seeing. A great day out. - I loved every minute of this tour. Driver was on time picking up from Hotel, the coach drive was pleasant, and coming into Bratislava over the bridge, with the castle on the hill, was impressive. Our guide was delightful and knew her history. I met another solo traveller who was great company. We had 6 hours to explore after the walking tour, but this was easily filled with lunch, walking to the castle, and exploring. Catamaran ride back was great, with views along the Danube. Thank you for a wonderful day.

Good tour with plenty of spare time to look around Bratislava on your own. - Good tour with plenty of spare time to look around Bratislava on your own. The tour guide was very informative and amusing and she gave us a good introduction to the main sites in Bratislava.

Long day - It was a good trip a bit expensive and two hours too long just passing time at the end of the day could have been back in Vienna earlier

Good way to tour Bratislava from Vienna - Good tour guide who spoke English. Was notified a day prior that the boat trip was canceled (no refund).

Bratislavia a worthy visit to unravel Slovakia. - Bratislavia was always an intriguing place to visit in my bucket list. Slovakia being a lesser known country always caught my attention. Market place was a happening area and 99% of guiding was restricted to the same. What amazed me was a had to take an independent another paid trip (within an already charged excursion) to see other city sites that merited. This was baffling and tour administrators must take note of same.
View from castle was good and the yellow train city excursion an experience.

Not safe at all - The tour started well. The bus left Vienna on tome and we were greeted with a very nice guide in Bratislava who spoke lots of languages. We were supposed to tour the city ourselves from 12-6 and there was supposed to be a bus back at 6:30. The boat was already canceled due to the weather and we had no prior notification on that. The evening bus never came. We kept waiting and calling the contact numbers but nobody picked up. It was late enough that public buses were not available and we had to take a very expensive taxi back.

Missleading description - Tour was in two languages not just English, slowed down the tour, to finish at 12 and return at 6.30 was difficult for a 6.5 hour wait. I was so exhausted that i cancelled my Sunday tour and lost my money of $230 not impressed

Bratislava was amazing. The tour operator was totally incompetent! - Bratislava was amazing. The tour operator was incompetent! We were not sent the email that advised that the return would be by bus and not by boat. (others on our tour did get it )
I also asked our shuttle driver who confirmed boat return was NOT cancelled. Only when we arrived at bus departure point was I told boat was broken. A refund was offered at that time but we would not have been able to obtain an alternate trip (which may have been possible had I been given advance notice) and we were now a 30 minute walk from our hotel. Also very frustrating that boat drop off was 6 minute walk from hotel but bus return was 30 minute walk in record breaking heat! Walking tour guide was nice but difficult to understand or hear as she was using a small speaker. Lastly, there was no tour representative at our bus return pickup point. Driver had no idea if all tour participants were actually on the bus!

missed the trip because of Viator misinformation - We missed this trip, because Viator did not do the good job. We were traveling from city to city without access to emails. The Viator information was that we suppose to arrive at a certain location i9n Vienna to start the trip. When we arrived there nobody knew anything about this trip. We eventually called the trip organizer, and they told us that location is different, and we don't have time to get there on time. When we came back to hotel the receptionist told us that the bus came to pick us up. As a result we missed the trip. Viator should've advised us that the meeting information will be sent to email prior the date of the trip. I would've found a way to check my email. The email came a day before a trip, but we had no chance to see it. I am demanding that Viator reimbursed my money to me. I was looking forward to this beautiful trip to Bratislava, and because of Viator error, we missed.
