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.

We booked a 15-day private Balkan journey with Balkan Tours. Throughout the trip, we had wonderful experience, excellent itinerary planning, very helpful driver, very nice hotels and very professional services beyond our expectation.
We were five girls travelling to Romania to experience Andrea Bocelli perform at the Unforgettable Music Festival in Bucharest on the 12th of September 2025. We wanted to make a tour of the Balkans following the concert and The Balkan Tours put together a very special itinerary for us. They arranged for excellent quality transfers from Romania to Bulgaria (Velico Tanovo and Sofia) to Belgrade in Serbia and onto Montenegro (Podgorica and Bay of Kato) and finally to Dubrovnik and Split in Croatia. They arranged excellent quality hotels with breakfast and great locations, and personalized tours to enjoy each city and destination in a meaningful manner. They gave quality suggestions about places to eat, and visit, and loads of other historical information about the places we were visiting. They created a tour app for us to make it easy to know all the details with important phone numbers. The Balkan Tours took good care of us, we felt safe and connected to our agent at all times, and we enjoyed our two weeks in the region. We would recommend their company to travelers looking for a personalized service and customized tours of the Beautiful Balkans. There is so much more to see, and we had too little time, we will most certainly come back and use the company again to assist us in our travel plans. A big shout out to Ava and Urska of the Balkan Tour Company!!! Cheers.
Really amazing experience. The 9-Day Essentials Tour took us to beautiful cities and countryside across the Balkans, and our guide Stefan was so kind and deeply knowledgeable about each place we went. The hotel accommodations were perfectly fine and in prime locations in the cities, each with a nice breakfast included. Communication from the company was fast and professional. I highly recommend this company, and we will work with them again when we are able to come back to the Balkans!
