Bucharest & Belgrade, Private Tour 9D8N

Authentic, Natural and Cultural best capture the essence of Romania …rich in history, arts and scenic beauty.
Romania offers countless unique travel experiences waiting to be discovered.
A journey of 4 hours, by car or train, can take you from the Danube River to a beautiful, intact, medieval town; from Bucharest – Romania’s capital city – to the Black Sea; from Southern Transylvania to the historic regions of Bucovina or Maramures”.

Outspoken, adventurous, proud and audacious: Belgrade (‘White City’) and its gritty exuberance makes it one of Europe’s most happening cities. Its Art Nouveau masterpieces, remnants of the Habsburg legacy contrast with Ottoman relics and Socialist Modernist monoliths. This is where the Sava and Danube Rivers kiss…
From the agricultural regions of the Pannonian Plain, across the fertile river valleys and orchard-covered hills of Šumadija, Serbia gives way to mountains rich in canyons, gorges and caves, as well as well-preserved forests.
Serbia’s beautiful national parks, rivers and lakes are the perfect location for an active outdoor holiday – from hunting and fishing to extreme sports. Serbia Cultural, Historical Heritage and Prehistoric Archaeological sites are its legacy with many medieval churches and monasteries, some are enlisted in the UNESCO World Heritage list.
the most-visited tourist destinations are the cities of Belgrade and Novi Sad, the mountains of Kopaonik and Zlatibor and the spa towns of Vrnjačka Banja and Sokobanja.
