Trenčín Castle Tickets and Tours

Legends of Slovakia: Trenčín Castle, Carpathian Wine & Bratislava

A Taste of Slovakia

This was one of three tours that my 15-year-old son and I took with Cozy Travel while we stayed in Vienna. I scheduled the tours about six months in advance and was in constant contact with Jenny before the tours. Jenny happily answered any questions (which were a lot-LOL) I had over the six months and responded in perfect English. While her husband, Vladimer safely drove us to each location in their comfortable car, Jenny would provide background on the areas that we drove by (and would let us rest when needed!). Jenny also provided her vast expertise during the tours at the actual locations. My son and I felt safe with Jenny and Vlad, in addition to enjoying their expertise and companionship during the tours. This tour is perfect for getting a taste of Slovakia. The scenery on the way to Trencin is beautiful. The hike up to Trencin Castle provided great views (even in the excessively hot weather we experienced that day). Jenny provided great background on the castle- how it was built, what it was used for etc. The view of Trencin and the surrounding hills and valleys is magnificent from the top of the castle. After exploring the streets of Trencin, we headed to Pezinok for lunch and wine tasting. Pezinok is a charming and quaint town. Slovakian wine is also very good! After Pezinok, we headed to the lively Bratislava. In Bratislava, we explored the charming streets and squares and had time for a coffee and a Slovakian beer. It was a great tour.
