Slovakia Travel Guide

Bratislava
Speaking of Nadal, Slovakian Martin Klizan gave him a run for his money last week though ultimately lost out to the world champion (no shame in it, Klizan). The 24 year old hails from Slovakia’s capital Bratislava, which borders Austria and Hungary, making it the perfect city for a multi-stop trip; hop on the train from Vienna and you’ll be there in an hour.

Bratislava’s small but totally European Old Town is the setting for many a stag do thank to its roads lined with bars and remarkably cheap booze. You’ll definitely find an organised bar crawl or two, and there are plenty of anglicised clubs and pubs around, too. If you fancy a tad more culture, join a walking tour and take in the architecture and history of Bratislava; watch out for the adorable Blue Church, it totally looks like it’s made out of marshmallows.
