Are you ready for a journey through Balkan’s layered past?

A melting pot of cultural influences accumulated over centuries are what make this region of the Balkans particularly awe-inspiring.

Here, ethno villages, UNESCO sites, and culinary delights weave the cultural fabric of each destination. The journey flows seamlessly into Serbia’s scenic towns, offering tastes of its famed wines and stories of royal legacies. Bosnia follows, where Sarajevo’s soulful mix of cultures and Mostar’s iconic Old Bridge captivate you with their charm.

Visits to Montenegro’s Budva and Kotor reveal spectacular Adriatic vistas paired with medieval wonders, while Albania’s vibrant Tirana and its agrotourism bring unique local experiences.

The journey crescendos in Greece, where Thessaloniki’s ancient arches and Meteora’s surreal monasteries leave lasting impressions before culminating in the grandeur of Athens, the cradle of democracy and timeless history.

This unique blend of countries, each with their own hidden gems rarely explored by crowds of tourists, make for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

To ensure you can make the most of your time in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia and Greece, we take care of everything. From booking accommodations to figuring out the logistics and providing support during your explorations, we pride ourselves on ensuring you have a hassle-free experience.

So pack your bags and witness the unparalleled richness of the Balkans and Greece!

  • Ljubljana
  • Venice
  • Zagreb
  • Belgrade
  • Sofia
  • Dubrovnik
  • Podgorica

No, our tours do not include plane tickets, and we also do not advise on them. However, we can help you choose the airport closest to the starting location of your tour or arrange a shuttle from/to the airport for an additional fee

Of course, just let us know upon booking so we can make timely arrangements.

Solo travelers who want to meet and travel with like-minded people often join us on our tours, except the private ones. Our mission is to provide you with a relaxed and sociable tour experience that allows the group to grow closer throughout the journey. Solo travelers will be roomed with another solo traveler of the same gender or can upgrade to a solo room for an additional fee.

If you provide your dietary requirements when booking your tour, we will make the necessary arrangements to the best of our ability. But please understand that vegan & gluten-free options are not as widely available in this area, especially in the more rural Balkans.

All the countries on our Balkan Tours, except Slovenia, use their local currency. We recommend you exchange small amounts of money as you go in the cities since the exchange rates are much more favorable than at the airports. Your tour leader will be happy to assist you.

The currencies in the countries on our way are: 

  • Serbian Dinar, 
  • Bosnia-Herzegovina Convertible Mark, 
  • Macedonian Denar, 
  • Albanian Lek, 
  • Euro in Slovenia and Croatia.

On scheduled tours, you are limited to taking 1 suitcase and 1 smaller bag for personal items per person.

There are no luggage restrictions on private tours, as long as you’re able to carry it for a short distance.

If you inform us before the departure date, you can join our tour later on, but it is your responsibility to catch up with us.

Excellent journey in the Balkans thanks to this agency that perfectly organized my trip. In addition, since there were only 5 people on this trip, we were truly able to enjoy a form of personalized travel. And finally, thank you to Marko who was an extraordinary guide throughout this journey and who shared with us his extensive knowledge of the countries (Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Croatia) and the region. This is an agency to recommend without moderation.
