Do you want to party?
• In August, do not miss the most famous brass and gypsy music
festival in the village of Guča, where the dancing will whisk you
away with its infectious rhythm. Miles Davis, one of its many
visitors, was enthralled: “I did not know you could play the
trumpet like that!”
• Eat and drink in good company, accompanied by folk music
on one of the many floating restaurants of the rivers Sava and
Danube!
• One of the unmissable events is also the famous EXIT festival,
held every July in Novi Sad. It has the flaering title of “Best
Major European Festival”!
Do you prefer the city life?
“The gateway of the Balkans”, Belgrade is a festive city with an
eclectic culture. From its imposing fortress in the Kalemegdan
Park there is a magnificent view of the where the Sava and
Danube rivers meet. In the evening, do not miss dinner in the
Skadarlija quarter, the “Montmartre of Belgrade”. When you add
the sunset it becomes one of the most wonderful places in the
world.
Do you love nature?
If you want to go horse-riding through the wide, picturesque
plains of Vojvodina, or conquer the highest mountains of
Kopaonik; if you want to go cycling in the green mountains
of Šumadija, or take it to the next level by mountain biking
along the trails of Tara and raing on the river Ibar; if you want
to explore the depths of the caves of Zlatar or even go deer
hunting or fishing - then Serbia is the place for you!
Belgrade is “New York on a budget”. Momo Kapor, writer
“...People who can sit at a table for hours just chaing, singing songs and still have a lot to say. My stay in Belgrade has healed my soul...” Erskine Caldwell, writer
