Our tour unique is deep dive into the "somewhere" that created a man who claimed to be "from nowhere." Andy Warhol's parents were Carpatho-Rusyn immigrants from what is now eastern Slovakia, and our tour offers an unparalleled opportunity to trace their incredible journey. We start in Miková, his parents' birthplace, where you'll feel the weight of history and stand on the very spot where his mother’s house once stood. This is more than a historical site; it’s a tangible link to the humble beginnings that fueled a global icon. Our tour also looks to the future of art in Medzilaborce, home to the Andy Warhol Museum. While currently under reconstruction, we'll see the promise of its grand reopening in spring 2026. Beyond Warhol, we explore the region's culture, hiking to the majestic statue of Count Laborec and visiting the solemn ruins of the Krasny Brod monastery, a powerful memorial to World War I. This tour lets you see beyond the art and into the soul of the artist.

What To Expect

1

Our adventure begins with the Havaj sign, a photo op so perfectly unexpected, you'll swear it's a piece of performance art. Get ready to strike a pose—you know, the one where you're pretending to be a super cool tourist in a completely random Slovak village. It's the only time you can legitimately tell your friends you went to "Hawaii" and have the pictures to (sort of) prove it. Snap a pic for the 'gram and let the likes roll in, all while knowing you're about to embark on a much more culturally significant journey. This is your chance to capture the start of a legendary tour...and probably the most confusing photo you'll ever take.

Delve deeper into the story of Andy Warhol's origins with a visit to the tranquil village of Miková, the ancestral home of his parents, Andrej and Julia Warhola. This small, humble village in northeastern Slovakia is a powerful and poignant stop on your tour, offering a glimpse into the Carpatho-Rusyn heritage that profoundly influenced the pop art icon. While Andy Warhol never had the opportunity to visit, his brother, John, did. A small, local museum dedicated to the Warhol family provides a treasure trove of information, The most moving part of your visit will be standing on the very spot where Julia's house once stood. Though the original wooden house is long gone, the space where it was located is a powerful reminder of the humble beginnings of a family that would go on to shape a global cultural phenomenon.
