About Private Balkan Tours

If you want an experience of the Balkans tailored to your needs, while also not worrying about the planning, a private Balkan tour is for you. Book a holiday with our private tour guide and explore the rich culture and beautiful nature of the Balkan Peninsula at your own pace.

The Balkans are a huge place, so we always try to include the best of it in our tours. Still, it might happen that you’ve already been to some countries and want this tour to focus on the others. That’s why the planning of the itinerary will be done in communication with you, where you can always state your desires and wishes for this holiday, and we’ll accommodate it if possible.

What distinguishes this type of tour from others the most is its flexibility. Naturally, a private Balkan tour can be customized however needed in the planning stage. But since it’s only going to be you and your guide, it is flexible every step of the way. If you feel extra tired one day or want to see more, the guide will try to accommodate your wishes to the best of his abilities.

You will have a professional guide who speaks fluent English who will make the whole tour run as smoothly as possible. They have extensive knowledge about the areas they will be guiding you in and are happy to share it. They can tell you a lot about the Balkan culture, geography and history, while also recommending a good place to eat.

Depending on your preferences, we can arrange different types of accommodation, from cosy B&Bs to high-end luxury accommodation. This way you can comfortably refill your batteries every night. To ensure you are comfortable during the day too, our tours include private transportation and numerous private tours between different sights and activities with your designated driver.

We will take care of everything while listening to all your preferences, before and on the way. If that sounds like your way of exploring the Balkans, book a private guided tour with us.

Excellent all round. Had a 16-day tour by the Balkan Tours, with a driver and guide (same person - Dejan), who took care of everything. It was a lot of driving, and him being an ex-history teacher really brought the historic places to life. I cannot think of a more educational and enjoyable holiday.

Everything about my experience with The Balkan Tours was exceptional! The comprehensive, well-paced 16-day itinerary they helped craft was superb, the choices of lodging were perfect, and the guide that assigned was added greatly to my experience. I took a chance in bypassing an American intermediary to deal directly with them—and I could not be more pleased and satisfied with the service and support I received from the staff at The Balkan Tours. I heartily and unqualifiedly recommend the agency!

Incredible Experience. We chose the Balkan Extended tour. Our guide Teodor was absolutely awesome He was so knowledgeable in the history of each region and country, gave great suggestions on food and restaurants to try, and was so very informative on the people and culture for every site we visited. He was so interesting with a good sense of humor. He made the trip so enjoyable. We loved the small group tour as well. The cities and sites visited were great. We visited more sites and cities than I thought we were going to. There may be times you wish you could stay more time in an city or site but really this is the ideal tour to give you more than ever imagined you could experience or learn about the Balkans. This tour got us excited about coming back to the Balkans some time and now we know where we want to go explore more. Highly recommended.

We had a 11 day tour through Croatia, Montengro and Albania through the Balkan Tours. Everything from the coordination of the tour leading up to it to our most fabulous tour guide Dejan was absolutley perfect. Dejan was so flexible in accommodating our needs and after a few days of getting to know us made alternative suggestions of our tour to suit our needs. The accommodation bookings that Marusa made were absolutely brilliant and if there was any issues at all we would have not known about it as Dejan sorted without being non the wiser. We cannot thank and recommend The Balkan Tours enough.
