Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Today my tour guide was with Kararína
I did the traditional city walking tour that lasted about 2 hour 45 mins and took me to the top spots around Bratislava centre.
I really do advise these tours as they are such a great way to learn the history and see the sights.
Katarína was really knowledgable and could answer any questions thrown at her with great knowledge!
She also gave us great tips about local cuisine and places to visit. Highly recommend

I was on the tour with Martina a month ago, when things were still calm. She's a very nice guide, knows her country's history in-depth and presents it with a sense of humor and in a way you can feel how genuinely emotional she is about it. Martina wasn't bringing a script with herself which makes a good impression, what she says comes from her heart. The tour consists of well-selected places so that you spend your time reasonably - not getting exhausted and at the same time not missing half of the good places. She described what traditional Slovakian dishes we can try, gave us recommendations for both fancy and affordable places for food. By all means worthy experience! Wishing health to all of you and hope you will continue with the adorable tours after the pandemic!

We visited Bratislava last Tuesday. Our plan was to stay there only one day so we decided to do this tour. Our guide was Katarína and she was great: she was super nice, she answered all our questions and she did a great job showing us the city. The tour is perfect to get to know the city in little time and our guide also gave us many recommendations to eat. 100% recommendable.

Our guide Kate showed us all the most important places in the city, and told us the perfect amount of historic infromation and curiosities about the city and the Slovak culture. She knows a lot of the history of the city and she really knows how to explain.
At the end of the tour she recomended us some restaurants to try typical Slovak food which were really good!!
Besides, the tour was in english (which is not our firtst language) and we could undertand her perfectly.
I´ve never been on a better tour!! Highly recomneded!!

We joined the free city tour in Bratislava a few days ago. Patrick our guide was just amazing. He made sure that everyone is engaged and he's quite funny which made the experience even more memorable. Patrick deserves more that a 5-star rating! Thank you! We loved Bratislava!

This tour is a great way to see the important sites of Bratislava Old Town and Castle. Perfect for those just spending one night on your way to Vienna or Budapest. Roman our guide was knowledgeable about Slovakian history and the city of Bratislava and very helpful with restaurant recommendations. Enjoyed it immensely.

Many thanks to our guide, Katarina who has shown us the main places in Bratislava and told us in a very quick and funny way the story of her country and city as well.
She also recommended us a few places to go to enjoy slovakian dishes and other things to do in Bratislava.
Her English was really good and she was really nice to us.
I highly recommend this tour to go and enjoy Bratislava in one day. It’s really worth it!!

Written 25 June 2023
Hi. As AlceuN_13 said, you can check for tour on their web site, but as I can tell, web site takes a share if you book in advance. So the guides prefer if you just show up on the location and join the tour. And it is really good, because they do their best with guidance, so that you give them some tip at the end of tour.
