Northern Serbia: Sremski Karlovci and Novi Sad Full-Day Tour from Belgrade - Fruška Gora and the story of Krušedol Monastery

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 425 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $78Our pick

Explore Northern Serbia from Belgrade with Krušedol Monastery, Bermet wine, Petrovaradin Fortress, and free time in Novi Sad.

“I only went on this trip because the one I was hoping to go on was booked. However it ended up being a great day. All the places we stopped at were really interesting and it was nice to see something other than Belgrade. I don’t drink so I was worried about the wine tasting part. However the town it was in was so cute that it was great to have extra time there to explore and take pictures. Menca was an amazing guide and shared lots of great stories and recommendations. Definitely recommend.”

Review of Belgrade’s six-hour nightlife crawl, with central bars, river clubs, party games, guides, drinks, costs, and booking tips.

“The booking through Viator was fine, however it appears that the company offering the pub crawl experience was either closed for that night or not operational as I went to the 11:30 pm meeting point and no one was there. I was later informed there was a separate event which prevented the booking to take place. Feel free to email the company first and confirm about their availability.”

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

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”

He gave us a through description for the history of Belgrade, told us nice stories about the city and the history of Serbia, and at the end, we had the feeling that this tour should be the starting point for the introduction of Belgrade to tourists who come for the first time. Thank you Marko.”

14.Belgrade E-Bike Tour: Power Glide!

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 112 reviews · 2 to 3 hours (approx.) · from $35

Explore Belgrade by e-bike, from St. Sava Temple and Tito’s mausoleum to Kalemegdan, with a small group guide in 2 to 3 hours.

“De tocht was totaal niet zoals beschreven stond. De tour ging alleen langs de rivier en niet langs de benoemde 13 bezienswaardigheden. Ik denk dat we maar enkele hebben gezien. Daarnaast leek de tourguide niet voorbereid. De route leek uit de duim gezogen en hadden we makkelijk zelf kunnen fietsen. We hebben het grootste gedeelte van stad niet gezien tijdens de tour. Verder was de tourguide wel en prima kerel. Ook ging na 2 minuten een fiets kapot. De guide gaf aan dat er geen andere fiets beschikbaar waren. Hij had maar 6 fietsen staan op de locatie. Enigszins vreemd voor een fietstochtaanbieder. De afgesproken locatie voor start veranderde na…”
