A reference for the French in Serbia - A must for an immersion in Serbian/Yugoslav history and culture. Captivating and interesting, Nenad shared some juicy anecdotes with us. He introduced us to places we would never have found alone. We couldn't have dreamed of anything better! Thank you again for this good time.

Guided tour that makes all the difference. - I used Nenad's services for two days and I highly recommend it. We learn about the city, the country. We discover magnificent places in the city that are not known through classic books. When I come back I will use these services again. It’s reassuring, safe and very enriching. In the morning I spent them with Nenad and in the afternoon, he recommended places and museums to visit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
