Bratislava
I booked the tour in advance and asked a couple of questions to which I got a prompt reply. On the day, my name was on the list and the tour started exactly on time. The company rep and driver were very courteous. The recorded guide was very well timed with the itinerary, the sound quality was perfect, and the content was interesting. There is alot more than meets the eye in Bratislava city and I highly recommend the tour to all tourists.
