My husband and I did a 10 day private tour with Best Slovakia Tours. It was better than expected and all the hotels were perfection. They did a wonderful job selecting an itinerary and our guide Martin really went above board to show us everything that was of interest to us. His knowledge is remarkable.

We are in the United States while Peter (Best Slovakia Tours) is in Bratislava so we did all our planning communications via email. It went perfectly. Peter listened to all my wants and was very easy to work with. I should also mention how I discovered Best Slovakia Tours: Michal R is a leading genealogist in Slovakia. He was even referred to me by the head librarian at the National Czech & Slovak Museum & Library in Iowa when I was there last year. I contacted Michal to see if he could be our guide while in Slovakia. He could not but he highly recommended I contact his good friend Peter. I am so glad that he did.

One goal of our trip was searching for information on my husband’s grandparents. Our guide Martin was wonderful working with us on tracking down clues and providing useful information. His experience working with previous clients and his knowledge of the history of Slovakia was a true asset. Martin also has great knowledge of the history of the other countries we visited on our trip and he is a lot of fun.

We enjoyed our trip with Best Slovakia Tours so much that we are planning a trip with them for next year. Lynn / USA / group size 2 / July 2025

We had a wonderful time on our recent 11-day private tour of Slovakia. We enjoyed the mix of different scenery and activities on the trip – from churches and quaint villages, to rafting and hiking with beautiful mountain views. All the logistics were top notch, including nice hotels and comfortable transportation. But what really took the trip to the next level were the team members involved. Peter picked us up in Vienna and got us off to a great start with a day tour of Bratislava. Martin, our guide for the remainder of the trip, was outstanding! We appreciated not only his knowledge of all the sites we visited, but also his flexibility, friendliness, humor, and caring nature. We would highly recommend Best Slovakia Tours…and hope to take another tour with them ourselves (to a country we had not previously considered!). Randy / USA / group size 4 / August 2025

We just returned from our Grand Tour of Slovakia. We enjoyed it immensely. We were very happy and impressed with our experience with Best Slovakia Tours from the very first contact. They replied in a timely manner and answered all of our questions. We decided to take the plunge and book the trip and are very glad we did. We had a wonderful day tour of Bratislava with Peter and the rest of the trip was with Martin, who did a wonderful job as tour guide/driver. Every day was a new adventure, we saw castles, churches, beautiful scenery and lovely towns and villages. Our transportation and hotels were excellent. The hotels were lovely and well located for our adventures by ourselves. We enjoyed the trip so much we are considering another trip with Best Slovakia Tours in the future.

Our experience with this tour company was nothing short of outstanding. The owner, Peter, impressed us with his extensive knowledge of history and culture. His hospitality and dedication to ensuring we had the best experience possible were truly remarkable. Our main tour guide, Martin, was exceptional in every way. He was genuinely interested in meeting our needs and addressing our concerns. Martin went above and beyond by helping us locate and meet family relatives, and he always listened attentively to our special requests.
Thanks to Peter and Martin, our tour was a memorable and enriching experience. They were very helpful is enabling three generations of my family to travel together to see nearly every corner of Slovakia – a most beautiful country. We would gladly book with them again without any hesitation. Highly recommended! John / USA / May 2024

We just finished a 12-day private sightseeing and ancestral tour of Slovakia, and I could not have been happier. Peter and Jane were gracious, accommodating and professional from the start – I had many questions and requests. They facilitated meeting my Slovak family for the first time – after having lost touch years ago. It was an exciting and rewarding experience. The sightseeing was wonderful. Peter was very in tune to what I wanted to see and experience. I am a history and heritage buff, and he was a wealth of information on history, traditions, customs – everywhere we went. Villages, churches, castles, museums, the High Tatras, a winery tour, rafting, hiking, and on and on. We even went to an outdoor music festival in the hills in the east, as a late add-on. The flexibility while touring was appreciated. The hotels were great, and in good locations, and the restaurant recommendations were varied and excellent. A dream trip, and I could not have had a better guide than Peter. I highly recommend Best Slovakia tours for private, ancestral, or structured tours. I will definitely use Best Slovakia Tours again!!

We just completed our best personal tour using Best Slovakian Tours. Peter the owner, by far was the best personal guide we have EVER experienced. From planning our 2-week adventure, to implementing it, Peter was outstanding and went beyond our expectations. He picked us up from our hotel in Budapest where we had just finished a Viking River cruise. Peter was always on time and we traveled in a beautiful Mercedes Van with plenty of room for us and our luggage. He had cold drinks waiting for us every day. Our tour was through Hungary, Slovakia & Czech Republic. He took us to many stunning photographic places; my wife & I took thousands of pictures. The Cities and local attractions in our itinerary were very interesting and picturesque. His hotel choices were very nice and in Great locations, near cities main squares. He was very knowledgeable about the locations we visited; he recommended many great restaurants for us to try usually with stunning vistas. Peter is like google of knowledge of the places he took us to. We enjoyed his style of tour guiding; He did not talk constantly and allowed us to process the information. He knew when to let it sink in. Overall, I really cannot think of what he could have done better, he was there for all our needs. He was truly the best. John / USA

Peter provided us with the best tour of the whole country. He really cares about the needs of the client — he knew that I loved churches and he made special effort to concentrate in this area. It was a memorable 2 weeks. The hotels were conveniently located near the central part of each town. I highly recommend Best Slovakia Tours. Jean / Canada

Just got back from a wonderful ten-day trip to Prague/Krakow/Slovakia and Budapest planned by Peter and Jane and guided by Martin. The trip was delayed three times due to Covid and the war in Ukraine, so we really appreciated their flexibility and professionalism to make it all happen. Prior to our arrival, they were extremely helpful in talking to our relatives in Slovakia (who we had never met) and directly coordinating a family reunion with them in my Grandpa’s hometown. It was a magical day meeting 25 extended family members only a few of whom spoke English. Martin did an amazing job being the “Master of Ceremonies” and translating throughout the day which started at lunch for everyone at the perfect local hotel recommended by Best Slovakia Tours and ended that night at our cousin’s house with multiple Slivovitz toasts. I know we and our Slovak relatives felt that Martin was part of our family that day! He also did a great job of reacting to unforeseen circumstances during the trip and figuring out alternatives/solutions. He got to know all thirteen of us and was able to customize suggestions to suit different wants/needs within the group. He was very knowledgeable about the places we visited and the history of each country but most of all he was just a really fun guy to travel with who always tried his best to make sure everyone had a great experience. Can’t ask for anything more than that. We highly recommend Best Slovakia Tours. Thank you, Peter, Jane, and Martin for a once-in-a-lifetime trip! John / USA

We can’t stop talking about our amazing tour of Slovakia and being able to connect with our relatives. Best Slovakia Tours made this happen with Peter being an amazing tour guide. His love for Slovakia and knowledge of the history shined through and made our trip so much more special. Peter and Jane took care of all the logistics and we were able to enjoy every minute. We appreciate Roman for driving all 11 of us around and navigating the narrow roads in the cemetery. Peter’s patience and flexibility were so appreciated and this allowed us to completely enjoy our visit with our cousins. All of the hotels and restaurants that we went to were excellent, and Peter made sure we visited historical and beautiful sights in Slovakia. Again, we want to highly recommend Best Slovakia Tours for making this a trip that we will never forget. Anyone wanting to visit Slovakia, we highly recommend contacting Peter and Jane because they truly live up to their name the Best Slovakia Tours! Steve and Rose / USA

After years of anticipation and planning, my wife and I worked with Peter and Jana Blazicek to create a personalized tour of Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland and Austria. They tailored our visit to our own particular interests (in our case, more culinary travel and nature, less museums…) in each of the cities and countries that we visited. Most importantly, coming from Eastern Slovak roots, they were able to facilitate heritage visits to the villages of Krasna Luka and Matysova where my family originated, arranged meetings with local residents who were associated with my family and assisted greatly with finding a common language between us all. We were welcomed not as strangers but as family returning home. By far, this was the highlight of our visit that was beyond words. We are grateful to Peter, Jana and Martin, our guide in Poland, Czechia and Austria for their gracious hospitality and experience of a lifetime. We highly recommend Best Slovakia Tours and we will be back! Ďakujem! Stephen / USA
