The 2019 Slovakia Heritage Tour, from September 6-15, 2019, will once again offer Slovak-Americans a chance to connect with their family histories, go back in time to experience the food, music and culture they grew up in, and better understand Slovakia’s intriguing history that led their ancestors to leave their families and lives in this beautiful land.
This 10-day, relaxed pace, small group tour takes you through Slovakia’s beautiful countryside to experience the age-old traditions and join in the fun with Slovaks at wine, harvest and mining festivals. Wander country lanes in small villages at this delightful time of year to travel. Linger in city cafes to sample pirohy, halusky, kolac, and other foods your grandmother made. Immerse yourself in history as you explore medieval towns, castles, outdoor village museums, and other landmarks without the tourist crowds of most European countries.
