"Little Rome", as they call it. Did you know Trnava earned this monniker for its multitude of medieval churches? More recently, a shipload of fresh ideas initiated by its Denmark-educated mayor transformed the quaint town into one of Slovakia's most interesting and sustainable urban spaces.
From Vienna main station, a quick train whisks us over to the Slovak capital in less than 60 minutes. There, we first join a Social Brunch before taking another express train to our destination, Trnava. Our casual Old Town stroll will stop by Trnava's main avenue, a 16th-century watchtower (entry optional), a sacral coffee shop and other gems of its rich history. Juxtaposingly, we also detour into a socialist-era residential complex just outside the city walls.
Underway we'll have fun with ice breakers, discussion prompts and local trivia. After dinner, our train back follows the stunning silhouette of the Lower Carpathians.
