You won’t regret booking this activity - I booked this for myself and my partner, even though he is not into wine. I dragged him along but within moments of being there we both started to thoroughly enjoy the experience. The wines were well thought out, with great variety. Michel was an excellent host. We learned so much about wine too. We really recommend trying this activity if you come to Bratislava

Unique and fun experience - Kristina was so friendly and so knowledgeable. It was very easy to acclimate to the darkness - which was really total darkness. We tasted several great local wines and learned a lot about wine intensity, aroma and taste. Water and bread was provided. It was a very unique experience - two and a half hours went by very quickly!

Unforgettable “educational” experience - I must say, this is a very unique concept of wine tasting, at least in Slovakia. I very much appreciated the choice of wines - only small local producers. Tibor is really a master of his craft, explaining plenty of things not only related to wine but to tastes generally, which makes you perceive things in broader context. The tasting itself had a great atmosphere, it was smart and funny. Definitely not my last visit. Totally recommending.

Amazing experience! - We truly enjoyed the whole experience! We appreciated not only great Slovak wines, but also exceptional setting in a complete dark which enhanced other senses! The tasting was full of useful information, funny moments and laugh. Even though we do know a lot about wines, we have learned a lot of new stuff. The tasting was perfectly organized by the sommelier, his approach really was more than welcoming. We are looking forward to try some other tastings in the dark!
