WelcomeToBratislava A guide about Bratislava, life in the city, events happening in and around, reviews of places – restaurants, cafes, bars; sightseeing, culture, shopping, getting around and other useful information for tourists as well as expats and locals living in the capital. Starting 6th December 2017, you have a chance to spot a special Christmas tram in Bratislava. It will offer free rides for all its passengers. Besides this, the city has also prepared a specially decorated stop which will remind you of the traditional gingerbread cottage from fairy-tales. It will open its door for the general public without charging, too! Forget the hustle and come to absorb the Christmas atmosphere while sitting in the uniquely decorated vehicles reminding you of living rooms, listening to thematic melodies :)

GINGERBREAD COTTAGE EXPERIENCE
This year’s new feature is also a beautifully decorated SND stop, which is the official standing spot of the Christmas tram. Passengers can enjoy the pleasantly furnished interior of the vehicle, this time in the style of the Gingerbread Cottage. During the ride, you will be able to hear melodies of Christmas carols. And the inquisitive questions of the smallest ones will be ready to be answered by professional guides who will explain the children the secrets and history of the vehicles.
Make sure you don’t miss this attraction and that you come on time – as the trams’ capacity is limited. Enjoy!
