I know it's a common route. :) I'll be 2 nights in Munich, three nights in Vienna and 3 nights in Prague. My question is whether it's worth it to take a day trip to Bratislava with only one two and a half full days in Vienna...or if I should spend the 2.5 days in Vienna alone. Thoughts and advice would be appreciated!
While I haven’t visited Bratislava, I’ve been to Vienna, and I can tell you that there are so many must-see sites to experience that even 2.5 days really isn’t enough. If it were me, I would stick with Vienna. No offense intended to Slovakians, but Bratislava just can’t compete with Vienna for your limited time. If you were going from Vienna to Budapest, then you could swing up to Bratislava for a couple of hours, and it would sort of make more sense.
We are taking the route this summer on the second week of our tirp. We have been to Prague and Munich but not Vienna. From reading I wish we had a fourth day to spend in Vienna, but are sticking with three.
