Vienna is beautiful – but why not look beyond the city limits for a change? In less than an hour from our Appartements Ferchergasse, you can reach another European capital gem: Bratislava! The Slovak capital on the Danube is perfect for a varied day trip filled with history, culture, and culinary delights.
Bratislava welcomes you with a charming old town, narrow cobblestone streets, baroque architecture, and cozy cafés. The impressive Bratislava Castle towers over the city, offering fantastic views across the Danube all the way to Austria. A mix of modern architecture and a vibrant cultural scene adds an exciting contrast to the historic flair.
And the best part: You can explore the city in just one day – and return to your cozy apartment in Vienna by evening. Here’s how to get there easily:
By Twin City Liner – Cruise the Danube in Style
A particularly scenic way to travel (from March to the end of October) is with the Twin City Liner. In just 75 minutes**, this high-speed catamaran takes you from Vienna directly to the heart of Bratislava – passing by beautiful Danube landscapes. Ideal for anyone who wants the journey itself to be part of the experience. Click here for more info and booking.
Comfortably by Bus or Train
Alternatively, you can take a classic route via train or FlixBus. Both options get you quickly and affordably to the city center. From there, you can explore the picturesque old town, the castle, and the Danube promenade at your own pace. Perfect for those who love flexibility and independence.
Prefer a Fully Guided and Relaxed Experience?
If you want to leave the planning to someone else and simply enjoy the day, a guided tour with Vienna Sightseeing is the perfect choice. The day trip includes transportation, a guided city tour, and enough free time to explore on your own. The best of both worlds! More info and booking here.
No matter which option you choose – Bratislava is always worth a visit. And the best part? In the evening, you’ll be back in your cozy apartment in Vienna.
