several round-year connections to/from Bratislava, Kosice and Poprad (see www.letiskobratislava.sk, www.airportkosice.sk), low-cost airline flights also available (www.skyeurope.com)it's also common to fly to Vienna and then continue to BA by bus or train(Ba-Vienna cca.60km)The low-cost flight is considerable alternative to train or car.
many intl. lines, e.g. Vienna, Rome, Venice, Belgrade, Budapest, London, many destinations in Germany and Czech rep.and a plenty of domestic lines. Buses can take you to the places where trains can not, larger towns are connected with express buses (altough slower than trains) and even the smallest village is reachable by local bus at least twice a day.www.cp.sk, www.eurolines.sk, www.vlak-bus.cz
good connection with neighbouring countries, direct trains to Berlin, Hamburg, Bucharest, and Moscow also available.(see http://www.zsr.sk/english/index.html); the bus and train connection finder I have the best experiences with is www.vlak-bus.czin general, train is a best solution for longer journeys, it`s much faster and more comfortable than bus. Once you`ve decided to take local train to small town/village, be aware that the train stop/station can be a bit apart of it.
Best way is to arrive at Bratislava Airport because it is the smallest airport I have ever seen and beats the hell out of those massive, glitzy airports in other places.I should say train, but...I haven't traveled enough by train yet. So...find someone with a car. My chariot was a Skoda. My driver should be the next Michael Schumacher.
When in High Tatras you can go by cable e.g. Tatranska Lomnica to Skalnate pleso and Lomnicky stit (second the highest peak) but remember to wake up quite early to get tickets and everything depends on weather :) Expect that it is more expensive than normal tickets ...
For a few extra dollars (and I mean a FEW) you can buy a reserved seat first class ticket on the train. You will likely have a cabin to yourself, complete with waiter, and the alternative second class ticket will have you standing by the aisle windows for the entire trip, trying not to breathe in the cigarette smoke. We paid about $5 each for first class to Trnava from Bratislava.
Of course that if you want to go from one town to another town it is good to take train.Why?because it is more comfortable,There is more space.Ticket you can buy in train station.If somebody is traveling with you and they are children,ask half ticket to ...You don't have to pay more if you don't have to.And "Makovska strela"?People from Cadca which they are traveling to Turzovka and Makov are taking this train.It means missile of Makov.
The major highways into and out of Slovakia are the E65 (Brno), the E75 (Gyor) and the E58 (Vienna). The speed limit in Slovakia is 60 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on open roads and 130 km/h on highways. A new law change has lowered the speed limit in Bratislava´s city centre to 30 km/h. Drivers who wish to use Slovakia´s higways must purchase a permit and place it on their windshield. The permit costs 600 Sk (15 USD) for regular passenger cars. Permits are available at border stops, petrol stations and post offices.
Vienna and Budapest airorts are closest, although these days flights to Bratislava are getting more frequent. Either way all are easy to get into and out of. The trains are really easy to get around in, just be a careful traveler, and a friendly Slovak can always help with directions.
Slovak Railways are quite nice, efficient and frequent. They have two tiers of train, the slow local one (also stopping at every station) and the fast one. The price are different and obviously the faster, the more expensive.The buses are also useful as a complimentary for the railways as well, and it can also be faster than the trains.
