We really enjoyed our tour with Milos. He told us many interesting storys and funfacts about the serbian country and history. We could ask him many questions, he answered all of them. The landscape along the Danube was wonderful, the old castle and the archaeological exhibition were very exciting. We had our lunch in a small local restaurant with a beautiful view. We would definitely recommend the tour to learn more about Serbian culture. It was worth every dinar.
Excellent tour with Novi

Many thanks to Novi for having us on your Danube - Iron Gate Tour today. Novi speaks many languages fluently and is really witty, was so knowledgeable about the area and the history and culture, not only did we learn a lot today but we had a blast doing it. Felt very safe with his driving in the fully climate controlled vehicle, had plenty of time to see and take in the views and take photos, and never felt rushed once. Excellent food and drink recommendations too. Would recommend this tour company to anyone visiting Serbia.
Highly Recommended

Communications were prompt and pickup for the tour was exactly on time. My guide Stefan was very knowledgeable about the subject matter and was focused on discussing and showing me what I was interested in. He even took a slight detour off the standard tour. I highly recommend Danube: Iron Gate tour with Belgrade Walking Tours. Also, don't miss out on their free Belgrade walking tour-- a great tour that's free.
Great experience
