Travel Director

Learn about the history of Belgrade
Our Serbia trips take you through the scenic Bosnian mountains into Belgrade, the ‘White City’, known for its complex and fascinating history. When you explore the city with your Serbia travel guide, you’ll get a unique insider’s look at this diverse history, ranging from the Celtic and Roman periods to the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian era.
Visit the Kalemegdan Fortress

This striking symbol of Belgrade sits on a ridge overlooking two great rivers, and it’s one of the most incredible places to visit in Serbia. With some 115 battles fought here and over 40 reconstructions over the past 16 centuries, you'll discover how the empires rebuilt the fortress so many times, and admire the lovely views from this impressive citadel.
Visit the House of Flowers

We’ll take you to see the final resting place of former Yugoslavian President, Josip Broz Tito, named after the many flowers that covered the tomb until it was closed to the public. Today, it's a peaceful place with lovely views of the city, and your Local Specialist will reveal some interesting stories of Tito and Serbia’s history on your Belgrade trip.
Admire the views from the Avala Tower

Of all the great Serbia attractions, you can’t miss Mount Avala. Surrounded by beautiful parklands, it’s also home to a 204-metre tall telecommunication tower, the tallest in the Balkans. Rebuilt in 2006 after the 1999 NATO bombing, you can learn the history of the tower, admire the incredible architectural details, and take in the stunning views.
Dine at top tennis player Novak Djokovic's restaurant

Want to dive into the Serbian cuisine in one of the best places in Serbia? We’ll take you to dinner at the restaurant of champion tennis player Novak Djokovic. As the first Serbian player to rank number 1, Djokovic and his restaurant are national icons. You'll see the cabinets filled with trophies and if you’re lucky, you might even be served by Novak’s proud mum.

Best known for his breakthroughs in electric power, you’ll discover Tesla’s genius inventions, and hear the insider stories and legends of the man behind them.
Serbian National Museum

You can’t miss the Serbian National Museum, the oldest and largest of Belgrade’s museums. First established in 1844, it’s now home to more than 400,000 objects, from artworks to archaeological treasures. Discover medieval artefacts, Yugoslav artworks, and an Italian art collection featuring masterpieces by the likes of Raphael and Titian.
Museum of Yugoslavia

Best museums in Serbia

Our Serbia holidays take you to the best museums in the country where you’ll discover Serbia’s fascinating history, culture and famous national icons.

Gibanica
Gibanica is Serbia’s mouthwatering take on the Balkan’s favourite pastry dish. It’s similar to a rich layered strudel cake, made with filo pastry and usually stuffed with cottage cheese and eggs. You can also find them filled with spinach, meat or potatoes, and they can be sweet or savoury. Whether you eat it as a snack or a festive treat, gibanica is irresistible.
Pljeskavica

This dish may be popular all over the Balkans, but it's the beloved national dish of Serbia. It’s a traditional grilled hamburger and the spiced meat patty is made with a mixture of beef, pork and lamb. Served with onions, tomatoes, avjar (red bell pepper and eggplant relish) or lepinje (pita bread), pljeskavica is the ultimate Serbian comfort food.
Kajmak

Another Balkan favourite, Kajmak is a salty cheese, similar to clotted cream, made from unpasteurised, unhomogenised milk from cows, sheep or goats. In Serbia, you spread it over bread as a tasty appetiser, melt it onto your hamburger patty, or try the fermented version in gibanica pastries. However you eat it, you’re sure to fall in love with kajmak.

What to pack for Serbia

Serbian phrasebook

Serbian is the official language, so bring along a phrasebook and try using a few common words and phrases. It’s all part of an enriching Serbia travel experience.

Comfortable shoes

You’ll find endless laneways, hillsides and towers that just have to be climbed on your Serbia holidays, so bring a reliable pair of walking shoes.

Rain jacket

There’s always a chance of rain in Serbia, especially if you’re heading on a Belgrade tour in spring. Bring a light rain jacket or a travel umbrella and stay cosy and dry.

Insect repellent

Don’t forget your insect repellent when you travel Serbia. Whether you bring a spray or a cream, make sure it’s a good quality repellent to protect yourself from mosquitoes.

Scarf

Whether you use it to protect yourself from the sun or the cold, or wrap it around your shoulders when entering churches and monasteries, a scarf always comes in handy on a Serbia trip.

Pack for sustainable travel

Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and reusable toiletry bottles.
