One of kind and unexpected! - Great time! We signed up as my family is czechoslovak, and we love wine. We didn’t expect it to be an entire sensory experience! Only complaint is that they should provide water in between tastings without being prompted, to wash the palette. Super cool, unique, and memorable- even got to try orange (color, not the fruit) wine, which we didn’t know existed! Can be hard to find, but the description is spot on about where to find it- it’s along the street that passes thru st Michael’s gate. Slovaks have a very good sense of humor, and the prerecorded wine sommelier was just as funny.

Wine Tasting In The Dark - Solo Traveller (UK) - Absolutely amazing. First time visiting the country, especially on my own. Venue is spectacular. The staff are really knowledgeable and well experienced in wine tasting. Had Mike as my tour guide throughout the experience. Again, knowledgeable and answering all the questions I had (so much to ask).First time experiencing unique wines, especially tasting the rare uniqueness of the area/ country. Highly recommend and you'll be surprised how much you learn about wine and truly appreciating the art behind it.

Dark, comical and informative! - Before we knew about this experience, I had mentioned to a friend how much I would enjoy a blind tasting and this was exactly what I was looking for! The tasting experience in the dark was interesting, informative and comical! I highly recommend!

A one of a kind experience! - This seemed like something interesting to do in Bratislava and it didn’t disappoint. We loved the experience of being immersed in the world of wine, with a focus on smell and taste! Our guide was great and helped us appreciate the experience. We learned a lot about Slovakian wine and enjoyed how different it was than California wine. It is an odd experience for sure, but if you’re up for an adventure-this is a good one.

Bad start but got better - Was booked in for 4pm and arrived at 4.03 as the place was not quite easy to find. We were met by the surly hostess who snapped ‘you’re late. I have people booked in at 5pm’. We thought there was no need for that attitude considering the duration of wine tasting was 40 minutes so plenty of time for the next guests. Despite the bad initial impression she warmed up and was more friendly as the experience went on. She gave some interesting info about the wines so we ended up enjoying it after all.
