After a quick trip along the Danube River, you'll come to one of Bratislava's most iconic sights, the imposing ruins of Devin Castle. This is a seriously Game of Thrones sightseeing experience, with a haunting tale behind it that's totally worthy of the murder-happy show! According to legend a bereaved bride-to-be jumped from the battlements after her family killed the groom and ordered her to enter a convent. Now we've heard of parents not liking boyfriends, but that's just a whole new level of mean...

Shop: Bratislava shopping areas & recommendations
Bratislava's shopping scene tends to be divided between independent little shops in the city centre and large department shops on the outskirts of town. The shops in the centre mainly sell designer clothing, jewellery, books and souvenirs, between which are dotted charming restaurants, pubs and bars. The main shopping street here is called Obchodna. Heading slightly more out of town (and we can pre-arrange transfers for you if needed) you'll find the Eurovea Gallery, Aupark and Avion shopping centres, all of which have a huge range of great shops. The Avion centre is also surrounded by several large department stores. No matter what you're looking for, either the city centre or one of the shopping centres is likely to stock it, and both are great for whiling away a few hours on a Saturday afternoon during your stay.
