Trip Highlights

Uncover the Balkan capitals shaped by their layered histories – discover Budapest’s Danube-side landmarks, Belgrade’s east-meets-west energy and Sarajevo’s Ottoman-influenced bazaars, mosques and coffee culture.
Visit Novi Sad on the banks of the Danube River and maybe explore the Petrovaradin Fortress – one of the most important landmarks in the city with a great view over the river. Then, immerse yourself in the edgy street scene of Belgrade’s Bohemian Quarter.
Explore sobering history in Mostar – visit the famous Stari Most (Old Bridge), which was destroyed during the war in the 1990s.
Admire the restored architecture of UNESCO World Heritage-listed Kotor in Montenegro on a climb along the ancient city fortifications. Then, discover the glittering Bay of Kotor in your free time.
Hit the historic hotspot of Dubrovnik along Croatia’s Dalmatian coastline. With medieval walls, Game of Thrones tours, hidden swimming coves and alleyway restaurants, this is the perfect spot to end your adventure.
