We had a great time on our wine tour with beautiful wineries and beautiful wine. The tour is exactly as described and because we were traveling during this pandemic, we pretty much had most of these wineries to ourselves. The first stop was Despotika and a perfect start our day. The winery overlooks beautiful vineyards and scenery and we got 4 different types of wines. From here we went to a family house and had a wonderful lunch and also 4 glasses of wine to go with our meal. This is a true Serbian experience as you are in someone's actual house. From there we then went to a museum-like winery that gave us a sampling of wine. This use to be the King's old cellar and still has archives of old wine. A good stop and interesting to learn about. Our last stop was Aleksandrovic Winery which feels like a high-end winery that also overlooks beautiful vineyards. Here we sat until about sunset with delicious wine! We had a great time, and our guide Andrija was great. Also got some photos of our trip which was a nice surprise!! Overall highly recommend.

We needed a transfer from our hotel for five passengers including a 2 year old and a 5 year old. We were traveling with our baggage, a one piece double stroller, car seats, and five carry-ons. Our driver Nikola greeted us on time, helped load our bags, was a wonderfully safe driver and then helped arrange to get carts for us upon arrival at the airport and loaded them up with all our belongings. It helped relieve stress and that departure confusion which occurs when traveling with children internationally. I highly recommend Feel Belgrade Travel for any transfer needs.

On this tour, you will have the opportunity to both get comfortably tucked into the tranquillity and serene scenery of the flat Pannonian Plain and the devoted silence of quiet monasteries, as well as to be mind-awaken by the richness of the area’s historical significance.

We've signed up for a tour along Danube that included Golubac Fortress and Lepenski Vir. We've spent most of the time driving and guide Mihajlo was pointing out interesting landmarks and local curiosities and sharing stories about them on the way. We were lucky to get an extra: a tour of local winery - I guess because we were a small group with quicker turnaround. We topped it off with a dinner in a local eatery. All in all, despite the long drive, it was very worth it. The trip was very pleasant and the fortress was a sight to behold. One tip: go in the summer. During the winter the best parts of the fortress are closed off to visitors.

Fantastic to be picked up from our uhotel. Our guide Danijel really knew his stuff and kept going for hours in English. We saw 3 monasteries, learnt about their history and how they worked, combined with a wonderful winery, a great Serbian town and a really lovely lunch. We also got to see the view over Serbia to Romania and a couple of bee-eaters. We were overwhelmed by the heat, but thank you Danijel, we had a very special day.

Since it a long way to Mokra Gora from belgrade, the tour started very early in the morning, and took about 13-14 hours as for long driving. However,, Mokra Grora is an interesting place, good for picturesque, If time allow, should stay longer or having a meal or coffee there should be desirable. We tried the Shargan Eight train, only for one-way due to time constraints. It would be better to visit there if coming from Bosnia. Must desirable to have tour started from Sarajevo and ended at Belgrade to save the long driving.

I had a hard time finding a group tour for the Iron Gate so I was happy to find this group tour! I initially booked the Cruising the Iron Gate tour through a website for a company called Serbian Adventures, but it was actually run by Magelan Travel. I found the meeting point in the morning a bit tricky to find (meet at the bus stop across from the skate park). As best I could tell, I was one of only a few non-locals, but the guide did provide the information in both English and Serbian and it added a bit of adventure to the day! I really enjoyed the fortress (it's a few extra Euros to access the towers) and enjoyed the cruise along the Danube. The lunch stop was also a really lovely surprise! While it was a long day, all in all it was a great way to see a lot of lovely sights in one day.
