1.Golubac Fortress & Iron Gate Danube Gorge

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 185 reviews · 10 - 12 hours · from $117Our pick

Explore Golubac Fortress, Kapetan Mišin Breg, and the Iron Gate Gorge on a full-day Danube tour from Belgrade.

“This was a wonderful day trip! Zoran was the guide/driver, and he was delightful! The fortress was awesome, a little extra time to explore on our own would have been nice, but we hit traffic and construction along the way that slowed us down. The boat ride was great! You got to see the iron gate, a cave, a monastery, a Roman ruin, and the face in the mountain. The meal though was my favorite part! We ate with a Serbian family and the food was the best I’ve had in Serbia! Don’t miss out on this tour and opt to have the meal!”

Review of a 12-hour Danube trip from Belgrade to Golubac Fortress, Lepenski Vir, and Iron Gate Gorge, with lunch and a boat ride.

“The tour itself gave you everything it said it would and the guide was very good, however I do believe it is definitely overpriced for what you get. In my opinion I'd recommend people bring their own lunch and skip the "restaurant" as was not worth the 1700RSD”

We went to a wonderful archeological site that was very informative. Jelena put us through our paces on a hike to a fantastic overlook. The statue of Decelabus was amazing. A highlight for me. After visiting several sights we went to a lovely restaurant with terrific food and service, Mirocka Dolina. Definitely try the stuffed mushrooms and fried cheese with honey. The end to a marvelous day.”
