Really enjoyed this trip. Jovak made it so much better. He was an incredible driver and tour guide with so much knowledge. I feel like I had a tour of the beauty of Serbia and a history lesson all at the same time. It was a great way to be introduced to a small part of Serbia’s rich culture, the wonderful people and the great landscapes. Unfortunately due to one traveller being late, it delayed our whole trip and we had less time in some areas, but this didn’t matter too much at the end of the day because all locations were worth it. The best parts for me were the scenic views of Mokra Gora, learning about the history of Serbia, and the Sargan train. If you have to option to, try and get to the train ride as early as possible, because it was so packed and we had to stand outside to get the best views of the landscapes. All in all I highly recommend this tour!

You can go to the city from Belgrade Nikola Tesla airport in several ways. We preferred a taxi, the taxi fare between the airport and the city is 25-30 Euros. Belgrade local traffic is very gracious. It doesn't take much time to go from one place to another. However, since we stayed in the city center, we walked to many places or took the publicbus sometime . Their food is delicious and affordable. Portions are quite large. You can eat some portions for two people. There are not many historical monuments in the city of Belgrade. But Nikola Tesla's house is quite interesting. Also , St. Sava cathedral is worth seeing place... You can see the view where the Danube and Sava rivers meet from Kalemegdan park.

I had the best time on this tour. Although it was rainy and snowy, it was still amazing. Our guide, Milos, had buckets of info regarding Serbias history and where we went.
Thanks for a great day. I fell in love with Western Serbia

Great day trip. It can be long but it’s worth it. Our guide Nevena was amazing. She gave us good insights into Serbian culture, history, geography and really made the sights come alive. The house on the Drina is cute and unique. The wooden town is quite the idea - don’t demolish a film set but turn it into a tourist attraction. Kitschy but works :). And the train ride was a nice slice of history.
Pickup and drop off were right on time. Coach was comfortable and everything was as promised.

We actually did the Northern Serbia tour, with the Monastery, Fortress, Novi Sad, Srenski Karlovci tour with Aleksander. It was an incredible experience. We only had the 16 hour layover before we were heading to Ohrid for a wedding. However, this was very much worth it. Aleksander was wonderful. Our plane was delayed 2 hours into Belgrade and he came to pick us up at the airport. We then got to hear all about the beautiful monastery. In Srenski Karlovci he ordered us coffees and told us all about how amazing Belgrade is which prompted us so spend a few more hours there after the tour. At the Fortress, we got amazing views and pictures. Then I’m Novi Sad, he gave us great food recommendations. Overall, he was wonderful and this was a great tour. We ended up staying in Belgrade for dinner and he gave us a recommendation for where to find good food and also how to get a taxi to the airport. We had a wonderful time and he helped us fall in love with Serbia. We plan to go back so we can experience more of the beautiful country!

This is a trip which is highly recommended to anyone interested in seeing the incredible transitions in landscape Serbia offers to those curious enough to explore this great country, The change from the rolling plains of Vojvodina to the mountains of the western regions is dramatic, and the choice of stops along the route of this (quite long) day trip is well considered; the charm and invention of Emir Kusturica's Drveni Grad (Wooden Town), the wild exposure of the House on the Drina, and the incredible civil engineering achievements of the Sarganska Osmica (Sargan 8 railway) were all very memorable experiences.
We were guided and driven by Uros, who was both charming and deeply knowledgable about the history and geography of his country, and put everything we saw - and much more - into serious context. Uros is a paradigm for all tour guides, and we cannot say enough good things about his professionalism and caring attitude to our group of travellers.

It took us 3 hours to reach but amazing
However it is better to do railway FIRST before the wooden village. We had to catch the train at 1.30pm. So all stops to the Drina river n wooden village were toooo brief.NEED more time at the wooden village
