Why we take guests here
Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, sits where the Sava meets the Danube and is known for its history and lively street life. You can watch the rivers from Belgrade Fortress in Kalemegdan, visit the Cathedral of Saint Sava and walk Knez Mihailova Street. Around New Year the squares are lit up and the holiday markets bring hot drinks and street food. When we plan the programme we look at flight times, the hotel location and winter conditions with you. Accommodation, transfers and visits are confirmed in a quote prepared for your travel dates. We can plan a short city break or a family programme built around the New Year and Christmas markets; the riverside paths along the Danube, the old streets of Zemun and local cafés are further stops that can be added to the route.

Before you go
How do you handle the planning and the entry paperwork?
A planner goes through the current entry and document requirements for your passport before anything is confirmed, and checks them again close to departure. We tell you what applies to your travel window rather than quoting a rule from memory.
Do Turkish citizens need a visa for Serbia?
Citizens of Türkiye can enter Serbia without a visa for short tourist visits. We check the entry conditions again for every passport before departure.
What is Belgrade like at New Year?
At the end of December the squares and streets are decorated with lights and the holiday markets open. It can be cold, so we suggest warm clothing and plan the programme with walking distances and rest stops in mind.
