5.00Not only was the tour itself amazing, but Alexander’s passion and knowledge is what made it stand out from the other tours that I’ve been on. There were some complications with the tour originally due to spontaneous protests in thr city, but nonetheless Alexander made an effort to adapt and overcome, resulting in a great tour of the city, covering the regions rich history and architecture. Couldn’t recommend enough for anyone like myself who loves history. 10/10 experience
One of the Highlights of Our Daughter’s Visit to Belgrade

5.00I purchased this tour for my 17-year-old daughter, and it was an absolutely perfect experience. Aleksandar was an outstanding guide, and everything was organized flawlessly from start to finish. My daugther told me it was one of the most interesting tours she has ever taken and that she learned a great deal. It is not always easy to impress a teenager—especially one who has traveled extensively and has very particular interests—but this tour was a complete success. For someone who is not easily impressed, it was truly a standout experience. She said it was one of the highlights of her visit to Belgrade.

5.00I enjoyed the tour and I really liked to discover this historical side of the city since I would have never guessed it on my own and many guides don’t cover such topics.
Great tour

5.00Aleksandar was so informative and passionate about his subject. His enthusiasm for the history really made the tour interesting and helped us understand the very complex history of Serbia. He was very informed not just about Serbia but was knowledgable about politics around the world. We also added on a tour of the communist museum and it was extremely helpful to have Aleksandar as a guide around this otherwise I think it would have been quite difficult to understand what we were looking at! I would highly recommend this tour.
Insightful, fun, and memorable walking tour

5.00My wife and I absolutely loved this tour! The guide was dynamic, engaging, and did an excellent job of keeping everyone involved and participating throughout the entire experience. He answered every question with passion and made the tour both informative and entertaining. What we enjoyed the most was his extensive knowledge of the history of Belgrade and the wider region. He shared plenty of fascinating facts, historical context, and funny anecdotes that really brought the city to life. The time flew by, which is always a sign of a great tour. If you're visiting Belgrade and want to gain a broader understanding of the city beyond just Stari Beograd, this tour is absolutely perfect. It provides a much more complete perspective on Belgrade, its history, and its different neighborhoods. 100% recommended. This tour is a must! Signed... Žužu :)

5.00Fantastic tour! Aleksandar does a great job of giving context and background to a complicated and sensitive subject. He approaches the matter giving all perspectives and is able to simplify the complexity of the past and present political landscape into something more easily digestible for people without a political/historical background.
