Bratislava by Coach and Speedboat

Discover the Slovak capital Bratislava on a relaxed day trip from Vienna. The two cities are the closest capitals in Europe, just a short journey apart along the Danube, which makes Bratislava a perfect destination for a day of sightseeing.

The highlight of the day is a fast and fun speedboat ride along the Danube, gliding past riverside scenery between Austria and Slovakia. You also travel by comfortable coach, so you enjoy two different ways of crossing the border in a single trip.

In Bratislava your guide leads you through the picturesque old town with its narrow lanes, lively squares and pastel facades, up to the landmark castle overlooking the river. Afterwards you have free time to explore the cafes and streets at your own pace before returning to Vienna.
