5.Day Cruise to Bratislava

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 178 reviews · 1 day · from $116

Glide from Vienna to Bratislava on the MS Kaiserin Elisabeth, with meals included and 4 hours to explore Slovakia’s capital.

“Leider war nicht abgegeben wie lang die Schifffahrt in eine Richtung dauert. Da andere Liner etwa 1,5-2 Std brauchen, bin ich von dieser Zeit ausgegangen. Von Wien nach Bratislava haben wir 3,5 Std gebraucht. Von Bratislava nach Wien etwa 6 Std. Es waren 3,5 std schon grenzwertig, aber ok. Aber wenn ich wusste, dass wir erst gegen 22 Uhr zurückkommen, hätte ich die Reise nie gebucht.”

A brilliant guide and so pleased we booked for a small group tour, it was definitely worth it. After the guided tour we had a lot of time to have a relaxed meal because when we got back to Vienna, we were ready to just go to our hotel.”

Bratislava Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna with Walk & Lunch

11.Bratislava Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna with Walk & Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 60 reviews · 9 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $90.36

Vienna to Bratislava by bus with a guide-led Old Town walk, included 2-course lunch, and hours to explore independently.

“Nothing against the tour operator or our guide, because you get exactly what's offered. But the trickiest part of the tour is finding the bus station in Vienna on your own, which takes you to Bratislava. If you can do that, you might as well handle the rest of the trip yourself. Our guide was friendly, but he gave a 50 minute tour- and then you're left back on your own for several more hours (most on the tour were ready to return 2 hours before the scheduled departure time.) Food at the designated restaurant was okay, not great. I will give this tour group credit because others charge even…”

Small-group trip from Vienna to Bratislava with hotel pickup, air-conditioned transfer, free Old Town time, and major sights in hours.

“We are totally disappointed about the tour that you provided us to Bratislava The tour advertised as 8 hour day tour and its started at 8am and we are back to the hotel now at 0130pm. We spent only 3 hours in Bratislava. Even no time to have lunch there. Considering as a day tour we didn't plan anything for the evening. We all expected to be there at least till 0330pm We came to Vienna only for 2 days and in a very tight schedule, planned to use every minute of it. But this tour waste our time in the hotel and ruined our planes. We had tours with…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 42 reviews · 13 to 14 hours (approx.) · from $299.57

Private day trip from Vienna to Wachau, Hallstatt, and Salzburg with hotel pickup, guided walks, comfy car, and Mozart sweets.

“This was a 10/10 experience - Lorant was an amazing driver (safe/prompt/friendly/knowledgable/fun), the tour itinerary is awesome (the 3 stops are all so different and Lorant is so good at explaining the uniqueness and special aspects of each), and the price is so much more affordable than equivalent options (quality/private/length). I am really happy to support Lorant in growing his tour guide business and really would recommend this if you are in the Vienna area!!!”

Private Bratislava day trip from Vienna with hotel pickup, a guided Old Town walk, castle views, and flexible return by car, train, or ferry.

“The weather was windy and bitter cold that day. I was miserably cold, but my tour guide was very supportive and engaging throughout the entire walk. I was so impressed that she didn't let the weather stop her at all. The driver who took me there and back was professional, and I was so thankful that he was amenable to taking me back as soon as the walking tour was done, because I was just too cold to explore anymore. I'm just sad I unknowingly picked such a bad day to see Bratislava! I will have to return in the spring or the fall to thoroughly enjoy it for a…”
