Description
To complete the historian puzzle of Serbia and to get a better picture of its cultural heritage, join a tour down the mighty Danube and discover its history from different epochs. Travel from the prehistoric period, over Roman times, till today.
Follow the flow of the mighty Danube River as you depart from Belgrade to the Golubac Fortress. Built on inaccessible cliffs near the widest part of the Danube, this medieval fortification welcomes you with its mystical towers that tell stories resembling a true fairytale. Climb up one of the towers and you’ll understand why locals say that Danube looks like the sea from this vantage point. Stand on one of the best-preserved fortresses in Serbia, for an almost aerial view of the Danube and its mirror-like surface.
Next, journey back to the Neolithic era at the archaeological site of Lepenski Vir, a prehistoric urban settlement.
