About This Tour
Experience the magic of Banská Štiavnica, where centuries of history come alive in one of Central Europe's most enchanting settings, just 2 hours away from Budapest. Located in Slovakia and once the Hungarian Kingdom's oldest and most important mining town, this UNESCO World Heritage gem offers an unforgettable journey through time: from medieval streets and Renaissance architecture to dramatic castles and deep underground adventures. Begin in the picturesque old town, where colorful burgher houses and historic squares transport you to a bygone era. The majestic Old Castle provides breathtaking views of red-tiled roofs nestled among volcanic hills, while the white-walled New Castle tells tales of battles against Ottoman invaders. Descend into the fascinating underworld of the Mining Museum to explore authentic 17th-century tunnels. Crown your day by climbing the stunning baroque Calvary that offers panoramic vistas of this captivating Slovak jewel.
