Tour & Travel Packages to Bratislava

The city's role in the distant past as a defense outpost and trading center was determined by its location at the foot of the Lesser Carpathian Mountains. The town gained renown due to its exceptional vineyards. Bratislava (Pozsony) was the capital of Hungary from 1536, after the invasion by the Ottomans, to 1783. Coronations of Hungarian kings took place here.

Bratislava was Austria-Hungarian major resort city until 1918. Since the 13th century, the Germans referred to it as Pressburg. It is a well known fact that it used to be a home to a large Jewish community.

Since Slovakia's integration into the European Union in 2004, the city witnessed a dramatic increase in the cost of living. This also gave the city a start in its development as a business center and a place of attraction for tourists from around the world. The number of direct flights from the rest of Europe (and, particularly, the UK), has increased too.
