Western Slovakia Private Tour - full day trip from Bratislava

Western Slovakia is the warmest and most fertile part of Slovakia, abounding in fields, vineyards, forests and rivers. Thanks to its mild climate it has been flourishing since antiquity - the Romans brought viticulture there. On this tour you will have the chance to taste ''Silvanus'', a Roman wine. On our way to Trnava we will visit the Červený Kameň (Red Stone) Castle, which was heavily rebuilt in the 16th century and became a mighty renaissance fortress designed to protect the riches of the first European corporation, the Thurzo-Fugger Copper Company, in the perilous times of Turkish Wars. The city of Trnava, built by medieval Slovaks and Germans, was a luxurious residence of Hungarian kings and a political and diplomatic centre of their realm. Its skyline is adorned with many bell towers and its urban area by the longest preserved medieval walls in Slovakia, which protected the churches and colleges of the baroque Jesuit University from Ottoman raids. But despite the Turks life has always been sweet.
