Top Castles in Slovakia

If you have some time, grab a guide booklet. I didn’t and later wished I had because I missed out on some cool stories.

Check out the nearby village for lunch options instead of eating at the castle cafe. You’ll find some delicious local food for half the price!

Get there around 9 AM when they open to avoid the crowds and really take your time exploring. Trust me, it's way more enjoyable without the hustle and bustle!

If you're planning to take photos, I suggest brigning a good zoom lens. The views from the castle are stunning and you’ll want to capture everything up close!

I suggest getting there around 9 AM to beat the crowds. The morning light is also perfect for photos! Trust me, it gets busy fast.

My advice is to bring a packed lunch. The on-site café isn't too cheap, and there's some nice spots around the castle to enjoy a picnic.

I think checking for special events before you go is smart. During my visit, they had a medieval fair which made the experience super special!
