Wonderful Day Out - This was an excellent tour that brought me to a quieter and very beautiful side of Serbia. The activities are located close to the town of Despotovac and the sights were wonderful.
Milan was a wonderful guide who has a strong passion for history and storytelling, and he had a great sense of humor. Learning from him was a defining part of the tour. I especially enjoyed having time to sit down at a local restaurant for lunch and share stories with Milan and my fellow travelers - the opportunity to connect with others was an especially wonderful part of this tour that isn’t mentioned in the description.
A huge thank you to Milan and the Serbia Excursions team. The communication from them was excellent and I had an absolutely wonderful time.

Nature at its best - A day trip from Belgrade was perfect. Starting from departure on time, the guide Milan has a rich language, excellent English and a large knowledge in history. The places are definitely worth a visit and all the places are beautiful and amazing views. Like being in a postcard. It's worth going outside the city and experiencing a non-urban view.
