Insightful day trip with great guide - Very well organised yet still relaxed trip. Fortified medieval monastery, cave and waterfal are absolutely worth to visit. Our guide Alex was very knowledgable, he knows the history in details and is able to give a broader context and speak in very engaging way. Highly recommend!

Eastern Serbia - I recently joined this tour through Serbia’s caves, waterfalls, and the beautiful monastery, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Milan, was absolutely perfect... incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and a fantastic storyteller. He shared so many interesting anecdotes about Serbian culture that truly enriched the whole journey. The local agency was also extremely helpful and supportive, assisting me with every detail before the tour and making the whole experience smooth and stress‑free.
This tour is truly worth it if you want to explore the surroundings outside Belgrade and immerse yourself in authentic Serbian culture. Highly recommended for anyone looking to discover more than just the city and experience the country’s natural and cultural beauty.

Eccellente - I did the tour with some friends and Ivan was our guide. The places are beautiful and really atmospheric, and we stopped at a truly great restaurant. Ivan was not only an excellent guide, but also friendly and easygoing, so we felt very comfortable with him. Thank you!

Million year old cave - Me and my wife who was first time in Serbia went on this tour, and she loved it so much, as nature is amazing even in late winter time. One of more interesting caves to visit in Europe for sure
