Bratislava City Wine Tasting Tour

Besides being very generous with the wine (I am sure this wasn't the only reason I enjoyed it) it was relaxed and personal. One of the best experiences I have had in Europe and a great way to see Bratislava. Loved it

We recently went on the City Wine Tour, with the wonderful Daniela as our guide. It was an outstanding afternoon and I cannot recommend it more highly! Daniela took us on a walk through the city to a hidden gem of a wine bar/cellar, where we tried some of the incredible local sparkling, white, rose and red wines.The sommelier was very knowledgeable and Daniela translated for us into English for each of the wines. Absolutely fascinating to hear about all the local producers stories. All of the wines were good and some were incredible! If we had not been travelling with hand luggage only, I would happily have bought a case of at least 3 of the ones we tried. In addition to the wines there was a plentiful plate of gorgeous local cheeses to enjoy. After we were nicely marinaded, we were taken back to the old town to try the local pastries, fruit wine and honey wines to round the trip off. Our guide was very helpful and gave us lots of local knowledge and tips about what to see and do, and even better, where to eat. Fantastic, good value trip and a brilliant guide, an absolute must for a weekend in Bratislava.

A friend and I signed up for the wine tasting tour and Daniela was our guide. It turned out to be a private tour which was a pleasant surprise and the experience was wonderful! We tried a variety of wines from Slovakia (sparking, white and red) at one location (along with some delicious cheese) and then a blackcurrant wine with local pastries at a second location in the Old Town and honey wine (as well as a bunch of flavored honeys) in an adorable honey shop at a third location. Daniela was very knowledgeable about the wines/vineyard regions and we learned a ton (ask her about Slovakian Christmas traditions, we got a kick out of that one!) - we even got to try Marie Antoinette's mother's favorite wine! 100% recommended, we loved this tasting and had a great time.
