About this walk

For almost three centuries, Bratislava was where the kings and queens of Hungary were crowned, and the city still keeps the evidence on its streets: brass crowns in the cobbles, a gilded crown on the cathedral spire, a French cannonball in the town hall tower. This self-guided walking tour follows the coronation route and the city's many renamings, from Pressburg to Pozsony to Bratislava, through the essential sights of Bratislava. Everything runs from your phone. You get a clear map of all 8 stops, simple directions through Google Maps, and a short audio story with an interactive quiz at each location. The route runs from the Blue Church to Bratislava Castle, passing the Old Slovak National Theatre, the Čumil statue, the Main Square, the Primate's Palace, Michael's Gate and St. Martin's Cathedral. Every stop works from the street; a few interiors have paid entry. Start anytime, pause whenever you like, and explore freely. No groups, no schedules. Audio and text available in 7 languages. And it comes with a free eSIM, redeemable once per account, so your map, directions and audio work from the moment you arrive, with no roaming charges.

  • Fabulous walking tour around the main areas of Dubrovnik old city.we were able to stop and listen as many times as we needed as there was also written information too

  • A great way to discover the hidden gems in Sorrento. It provides history, cultural context and a flavour of the place. We would have missed so much had we wandered round without this valuable guide. Thank you for the research and information.
