Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Montenegro tour

Flight arrival and transfer to Belgrade. Enjoy a tour around the capital city of Serbia, which lies at the confluence of two major rivers – Donava and Sava. Due to its location, Belgrade once was and still is an intersection between east and west, north and south. We will see the Belgrade fortress, which has 7000 years of history. The fortress leads us directly to the old part of the city with the oldest cafes. Close by is the main street in Belgrade – Knez Mihailova Street. You will also visit Republic square, Skadarlija… After the guided visit, free time for independent sightseeing. Overnight in Belgrade.

After breakfast, drive to a small city of Sremski Karlovci, which was a Serbian spiritual and cultural capital for 200 years. The town has traditionally been known as the seat of the Serbian Orthodox Church in the Habsburg Monarchy and the political and cultural capital of Serbian Vojvodina. The old baroque town is surrounded by some of the most important monuments of Serbian cultural history: the Cathedral of St. Nicholas, Patriarchy court. Next, we will stop in one of the local wine cellars for wine tasting. Then, you will continue to Novi Sad, the second-largest city in Serbia, visit the Petrovaradin fortress, the most important city landmark, which the Austrians built, to protect the city against the Turks, towering over the Danube on a 40m-high volcanic slab, nicknamed ‘Gibraltar on the Danube’ and actually built by slaves between 1692 and 1780. Transfer to Belgrade overnight.

Today, head for Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Here we can still see the dominance of the Ottoman style of mosques, complemented by Catholic cathedrals and Jewish synagogues. Sarajevo became (in)famous in 1914 when a young Serb Gavrilo Princip assassinated archduke Franz Ferdinand. That was the excuse for the Austro-Hungarian Empire to start a war against Serbia, which then grew into the First World War. The city became famous again when it hosted the 1984 Winter Olympics. Overnight in Sarajevo.

Breakfast and then guided tour of the city: Gazi Husrev Bey’s Mosque, Bezistan, Gavrilo Princip Museum, Baščaršija – Turkish Bazaar…. Then, we drive through the mountains and along the gorges to the picturesque town of Mostar, which owes its name to the famous Bridge over the Neretva River. During your visit to this UNESCO World Heritage-listed city, you’ll see its historic Old Bridge, the colourful Old Bazaar with traditional handicrafts and well-preserved traditional Turkish houses and mosques. In the afternoon, the tour will lead to Dubrovnik, a world-famous Dalmatian city called the Pearl of Adriatic. Overnight in Dubrovnik or vicinity.

Next, enjoy a boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks, one of two islets off the coast of Perast. The Roman Catholic Church is the largest building on the islet, with a museum.
