Highly recommend - This really was an excellent day out. Got to the main bus station on U3 direct from our hotel. It was right next door and a smallish station so really easy to find bus. My instructions told me to get off at 2nd bus stop SNP Most, and meeting point was 2 minutes away. There were only 5 of us in the group so easy to hear and ask questions. The tour did take 2 hours rather than 1 which was our gain. Lunch was soup and then chicken and chips, the others had coffee and cake option. All lovely. Plenty of free time so walked to castle and blue church. Then had coffee and cake in oldest coffee shop. The honey cake was one of nicest cakes ever had. Our guide was Yuri (spelt wrong) and was excellent.

Best experience - I thought visiting Bratislava, Slovakia was an amazing place to visit. I thought guided tour was fantastic the man who did the guide tour was very knowledgeable about the history of the city, which is something I've learnt about. It was worth having a 2 course lunch which was free.

City to see - Perfect bus transportation. On the other hand, the restaurant is oversold in the all-inclusive tour...choose your own, there are plenty of nice ones and cheaper ones...the guide doesn't give much guidance for the solo suite...

A somewhat qualified success - I found Bratislava a charming town. The tour guiding was minimal: we were unaccompanied on the journey out and back and the tour guide only gave us an hour of her time before dumping us at a restaurant for a pre-booked meal. My meal itself was unsatisfactory. I am vegetarian with digestive issues, and the food available did not really suit me. The time keeping of the buses out and back was fine.

Google it! - When my friend asked our guide a question, she was more interested in getting everything done by the clock, so she told her to Google it. When asked how we return to the original meeting place to find the bus back to Vienna, she said it was not her responsibility, her only responsibility was the tour. She said Google it. Bratislava bustles with little shops and lots of history. We did not learn any until we googled it. I took a stab at it and guessed the big beautiful building I found on my walk around town was the opera house. I googled it and I was right! No lunch prepared for vegetarians. Googled it! Find a guide who cares about Bratislava and other people. Google it!

Viator won't take care of you when there is a vendor problem - Was supposed to go on viator tour of Bratislava. Unfortunately the flixbus from vienna was not reported correctly and a number of folks including me missed that bus. Even though the tour operator was well aware of the problem with flixbus they would not issue a refund nor did they offer another date. Neither viator nor the tour operator offered to make us whole even though the problem was with a provider. I travel alot and for this reason I will never use or recommend viator again.

A big mess. Hope viator will correct this - Flixbus provided incorrect information and we missed the tour. I'd like a reimbursement from viator for this. Your agent also provided the same incorrect information.
