Overview

Walk through centuries of history and discover the city that feels straight out of a fairytale with this self-guided walk through Bratislava’s Old Town. From the last standing medieval gate to castle overlooking the Danube, this tour reveals stories of kings and coronations, ghostly legends and statues with a sense of humour.
You’ll follow the original coronation path of Hungarian monarchs meet quirky characters like Čumil the manhole peeper and Schöne Náci the gentleman with flowers, and discover landmarks such as St. Martin’s Cathedral, Primate’s Palace, and the UFO Bridge. Everything is curated into a route that helps you understand the why behind the city’s most iconic sights.
Unlike group tours, this self-guided format gives you full control: pause for coffee, skip a museum, or linger at the castle. It’s ideal for first-time visitors, solo travellers, and couples.
