Set off for an adventure and get a full-day acquaintance with Vojvodina, the Northern Province of Serbia. Being the border between the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires, Vojvodina reconciled different styles and influences, nations and traditions which resulted in an authentic mix worth visiting!

Find out more about the Serbian religious legacy and visit one of the monasteries at Fruška Gora National Park. Then, dive into the slow-paced lifestyle of Sremski Karlovci, a little town with fantastic ambiance and architecture, famous for wine production and spiritual influence over the Serbian culture. Wine tasting at a local wine shop will warm you up for the upcoming sightseeing of Petrovaradin, a 17th-century fortress and a famous venue of the EXIT Music Festival.

Enjoy Novi Sad, the city with a powerful sense of identity that will seduce you with its charming passages, fancy downtown, and open-minded people. It is rightfully called the European Capital of Culture for 2021.

We booked the trip, received confirmation, at the indicated time and place the tour operator never showed up (and it was difficult to miss the place - hotel Moskva). Since no contact to the tour operator was provided I managed to get in touch via WhatsApp with Viator travel. After a while I learned that I will be picked up soon (it was already 45 min after the time). Another 45 min took the exchange of correspondence with Viator with no effect. Despite requests I was never given a direct contact to the tour operator (I received one but they never answered). After 1,5hs I've given up. It is a pity since it was our last chance to go outside of Belgrade - we were going back next day. I must say I have never been treated like that during years of traveling. It is a warning for others - please note that while booking via Viator there is no information who is the actual operator nor you will find any contact details.
Great trip, slightly underwhelming

It was great trip, the guide was very nice and very friendly he helped us a lot during the trip. However the trip itself wasn't that great particularly as compared to other parts of serbia (like east serbia). Petrovardin Fortress was okay, Monastry was like another monastry, and there wasn't much to do in Novisad. The difference between Novi sad and Belgrade is much of a muchness.

The day was very hot, which influenced our enjoyment. We had too much time allowed in Novi Sad, could have covered all and finished earlier.

It was definitely an experience I would highly recommend. Before the tour, they contacted us and shared a pickup location that was very close to our hotel in Belgrade. We were greeted by a lovely tour guide, and we set off in a very comfortable minibus. The historical, geographical, and cultural information the guide shared throughout the journey was incredibly interesting. It was a tour from which I learned a lot. We had a very special wine tasting experience, and those moments were truly wonderful. At the end of the tour, we had two hours of free time, which was more than enough. I don't want to give away too many details, because I want you to experience it for yourself. You can embark on this journey with confidence — a very professional and thoughtfully organized tour awaits you.

Make sure you double check your given pickup location for mistakes

The day before the tour, an employee named Luka reached out to me telling me to meet at a pickup location “3 minutes” away from my Airbnb. I agreed. However, later that night, I decided to double check the location to get familiar with where it was to avoid complications on the morning of. I discovered the pickup location I was given was an 18 minute walk from my airbnb, not 3 minutes like I was told. Not sure what led to the mixup as Luka didn’t apologizing or giving an explanation. This honestly pissed me off as I already have a full schedule the other days in Serbia, and would have ended up missing the tour if I didn’t make the decision to double check the pickup location. I’m sure the operator would have offered for me to go the next day in this situation, but that would have been useless as I have a full schedule. The tour itself was decent but nothing too special. Still definitely worth checking out Novi Sad on your Serbia trip.
