Very good ! - We had a great tour. Exciting and very beautiful places to visit. The monestary for example is a markedly spiritual place. The cave adventourus. And the food divine ! Our guide had a lot of knowledge and a great humor.

Private Tour of Eastern Serbia - Luca was an excellent guide. We enjoyed the monastery and Church of the Holy Trinity. The frescoes in the church are quite vivid for their age. Reserva cave is a must see. It is beautifully decorated and the rooms are large. We also enjoyed a lovely Kafana at the waterfall. The meal portions were large so we had lunch for the next day. Luca made sure that we knew the history of the areas we visited. He gave us suggestions when we asked about other places to visit and where to have dinner. We were safely driven back to our apartment and we were sad to say goodbye to our new friend, Luca.

Excellent guide, nice sights - Our tour guide was Roger and he was fantastic! He picked up my two friends and I at the appointed time in a comfy 5 seater. It was a long drive, but with Roger's careful driving, even on the windy roads, we hardly noticed. The sights were nice. Roger was incredibly knowledgeable and shared lots of great info. We opted not to do the final stop (Zdrelo Spa), so we could be back in Belgrade for our evening meal. If you have a spare day and would like to see more outside of Belgrade, this tour is a good option.

Serbia trip is incomplete without this tour - In any journey, what matters more than the place is the company...The highlight of this trip was our tour guide Darko. His hospitality, level of knowledge, communication skills, warmth, friendliness and helpfulness is above any other guide. He makes sure you have a memorable trip. We booked one more trip with him on 3rd day after being disappointed with the next tour with another agency on 2nd day. Thank you Darkon for making Serbia trip so much fun for us.

Fantabulous family moments - Wonderful experience with our tour guide rather a friend - Darko, made our trip the most memorable.Our tour kicked off with Zlatibor Tara National park, Belgrade tour and ended with the Eastern Serbia ...trekking to the canyons is highlight of the entire trip ...so many amazing view points. ...Being a Vegetarian his choice of restaurants is simply awesome. He was with us through out the trip letting us know each and every info abt the places we visited.
We gave a slogan to Darko - East or West serbia, Darko is the best guide!!!
Hvalla Darko, for giving us an amazing experience of Serbia.

Great day - Long day but very pleasant. The grounds of the monastery were excellent. The water falls are quite attractive as was the natural spring. The caves were interesting and on the cool side do most folks require a jacket.
Our guide Roger was excellent and a pleasure to spend the day with. Just the right amount of information provided. We highly recommend his srvices.

Oct visit - It was a good one-day visit to eastern Serbia. The Blue Lagoon was a letdown as it was covered with fallen fall leaves.
The biggest negative was that the tour leader/driver was a smoker.
