WITH LOVE FROM BRATISLAVA
During the walking tour in Slovakia's capital our guides like to stop the schoolchildren and ask them to sing something for the foreign visitors.
Today, the guests from the ship A-ROSA Kreuzfahrten Riva were able to experience such a small concert in the courtyard of the town hall. The kids seemed so happy and excited, and their happiness and excitement was infectious for everyone.
This is also a reason why to fall in love with Bratislava!

NOTHING GONNA STOP US!
Bratislava Marathon is always a challenge for everyone in the city. We have to coordinate the departures for the sightseeings with announced road closures, security measures and traffic limitations. It was again an exciting day not only for our guides but also for the 160 British guests from the ship MS William Wordsworth. But we managed it!
Next week on Sunday we have to get ready for the oldest race in Slovakia - the 76th National run Devín Bratislava.

ART ON THE DANUBE
In cooperation with Slovak National Gallery we created a new program ,,Art on the Danube''. It is not only a tour through the exhibitons of Sacred and Modern Art, but it is also a visit in the beautifully reconstructed building, composed of the former military barracks and an overbridge part from the communist era. Together with our guides we also tried an art workshop led by an expert, where the guests will be able to create their own art piece.

PREPARATION IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS
We are known to put a lot of effort into creating unique and memorable experiences and we test every tour with our guides to ensure everything will run smoothly during the long season.
This week we visited the historical Manor house Palffy and enjoyed tastings of local beer and wine. We all had a great time and hope that the guests will have the same delightful experience very soon! 🍷🍺

CHRISTMAS SEASON JUST STARTED! Today we started our Christmas programmes on the Danube for the river cruise guests. The visitors not only explored Bratislava by red city train and walking tour, but also tasted the oldest Slovak Christmas food - bobalky with poppy and honey wine and experienced a wonderful concert with Advent songs in the Gothic Chapel of St. Catherine built in 1325. Dancing guide Katarina is a nice bonus :)

Beautiful advertisement of the river Danube and Bratislava in the documentary ,,Christmas Cruising with Susan Calman''! And as you can see - the tour in our red train Vláčik Blaváčik - Bratislava City Train and visit of Bratislava Castle can't be missed 😀

First Sunday of Advent our german guests enjoyed a ,,Slovak Christmas'' with tasting of our oldest christmas speciality ,,Bobalky'' together with sweet honey wine and wonderful private concert in the Bratislava's oldest gothic chapel of St. Catherine. It's great to have this most beautiful time of the year back without any restrictions! WEIHNACHTSKREUZFAHRTEN SIND ZURÜCK Heute haben wir endlich mit den Weihnachtsprogrammen für die Flusskreuzfahrtgäste begonnen. Am ersten Adventssonntag genossen unsere deutschen Gäste eine ,,Slowakische Weihnacht'' mit Verkostung unserer ältesten Weihnachtsspezialität ,,Bobalky'' zusammen mit süßem Honigwein und einem wunderbaren Privatkonzert in der ältesten gotischen Kapelle von Bratislava, der St. Katharinen-Kapelle. Es ist großartig, diese schönste Zeit des Jahres wieder ohne Einschränkungen erleben zu können! VIANOČNÉ PLAVBY SÚ SPÄŤ Dnes sme konečne začali s vianočnými programami pre hostí z kabínkových lodí. Prvú adventnú nedeľu si naši nemeckí hostia užili ,,Slovenské Vianoce'' s ochutnávkou našej najstaršej vianočnej špeciality ,,Bobáľky'' spolu so sladkou medovinou a nádherným súkromným koncertom v najstaršej bratislavskej gotickej kaplnke svätej Kataríny.
