Dramatic natural scenery and budget-friendly prices make Slovakia a must
Although quite small, Slovakia – a land-locked country in eastern Europe – has lots to offer to the growing number of visitors it receives every year. Mostly mountainous, the country is dominated by the High Tatras – a relatively small mountain range that it shares with Poland and where some of the world’s most famous pages of winter mountaineering have been written.

Budget-friendly
Although right next to Austria, prices on the Slovak side of the border are a lot friendlier for travellers on a limited budget.

Robert Vrlak was an amazing guide which we highly recommend to everyone! Stays at your own pace, explains in full detail about the plan, routes, etc, complimented with extreme knowledge about the surroundings of the area you are in. I look forward to have him as our guide in the near future, thank you Robert!
Jakub was an excellent guide. I told him of my experience and he chose a perfect route. Demanding but fun and manageable. He also gave me a great history of the route and a wealth of information about the area.

Eduard took my husband and I ice climbing for our first time. Eduard took great care of us, had great communication and is a lovely person to spend a day with. He is an expert in the field and it shows! He took care of all the logistics on the trip to make our experience comfortable. The experience exceeded our expectations. We were both able to climb a beautiful waterfall and enjoy the High Tatras.
