You'll visit the city's usual must-see spots, such as Preseren Square, City Hall, the Open Market, and Dragon Bridge, and places granting an overview of the city's communist era, such as monuments, architecture, and places related to the independence movement. After lunch at a typical Slovenian restaurant, you'll explore the hidden rooms and secret communications center hidden within Hotel Jama, which bear witness to the acts committed by Yugoslavia's secret services.

Ljubljana Food Tasting Small Group Tour

Slovenia is the first entire country in Europe to be named a European Region of Gastronomy, an honor that has otherwise only been given to individual regions. Thus, if you want to truly experience Ljubljana, you must experience its cuisine as well, which is why we recommend this three-hour food tour with a local guide.

Wine Tasting Ljubljana Group Tour

Your first stop will be Bled Castle, where you can try some nice Slovenian wines in a wine cellar. After the castle, you'll be driven down to the lake to go to the island on a traditional boat. Visit the stunning church on the island and the town's charming center, you'll walk through the scenic Vintgar Gorge.

Take it Easy

Tito's Birthplace Private Half-Day Trip

Baščaršija, the City's Heart

Baščaršija is Sarajevo's old bazaar and the historical and cultural center of the city. If you want to experience the bazaar at its best, we suggest taking a stroll through the bazaar to Bravadžiluk Street. Once home to the city's locksmiths, this street is now Baščaršija's gastronmic paradise, home to many of Sarajevo's most famous eateries.

Yugoslav Heritage Small Group Tour

Join our Yugoslav Tour and enjoy a unique experience. This tour takes you through the streets of Sarajevo in a car going back to the communist era of Sarajevo in all its authenticity. Many people of former Yugoslavia still have very nice memories and positive things to say about their former country so much that there is even a term Yugo-nostalgia.

Sarajevo's Best Museums

Each museum in Sarajevo reflects the history and lives of locals in very different circumstances, and each one will significantly help you understand this unique city and determined citizens. Museums centered around the fighting in the 90s are exceptionally emotional and include the War Tunnel (the sole source of aid and weapons during the Siege of Sarajevo), Gallery 11/07/95 (named for the date of the Srebrenica Massacre), and especially the War Childhood Museum. If you're interested in more distant history, seek out Svrzo's House (a traditional Bosnian house) and the National Museum. We also recommend visiting the Jewish Museum, to learn about the very complicated and interesting history of Bosnia's long-lived Jewish community.

Traditional Bosnian Dinner with a Local Family Small Group Tour

You'll enjoy a delicious historical adventure through the cuisine and culture of Bosnia and Herzegovina at this unique and traditional Bosnian dinner. You'll have several courses of traditional cuisine and get to learn more about the local culture as you dine. At the end of the meal your guide will show you a lovely panoramic view over the entire city!

Tito's Bunker and Konjic Private Day Trip

Day tour to visit Konjic and Tito's bunker is filled with diversity and you will be surprised to learn so many interesting facts about the Yugoslavian period and the position of Bosnia and Herzegovina at the time.  Tito’s Bunker is one of the largest and best-kept secrets of the former Yugoslavia. The Bunker is a real miracle of construction, complex for a special purpose - in case a catastrophe happened, Tito and his closest associates would be sheltered here. The 6.500 square meters long bunker was one of the most expensive structures in the former Yugoslavia, there was an incredible $4.6 billion spent on this project. With your local guide, you will discover how it took 26 years to build, and how it was designed to withstand nuclear war and shelter communist leaders and army generals. Its air conditioning system, power generator, toilets are still working and the water container is filled with fresh water, just in case.

Traipse the Bohemian Quarter

For your first night in Belgrade, we suggest taking an easy walk down Knez Mihajlova street and through the Bohemian quarter of Skadarlija, often compared to Paris' Montmartre. These old areas reflect the local lifestyle and culture at its best. Here you'll experience a blend of classical and modern architecture, together with lively cafeterias, street musicians, outdoor artists, interesting galleries, and shopping. In short, this is a great place to spend a few hours.

Belgrade's Yugoslavian Heritage Private Tour

Visit Belgrade's Museums

As a capital of Serbia, Belgrade has more than a few museums, but three stand out and are especially worth seeing. Having finished 15 years of renovations, the National Museum of Belgrade has now opened all of its doors to visitors. Here, guests can explore a massive collection encompassing everything from the Paleolithic period to 20th century art. Our second recommendation is the Nikola Tesla Museum. You'll explore his often fantastical inventions, and unusual approach to life. Finally, be sure to visit the Museum of Contemporary Art. Its "permanent" exhibition actually changes every three to five years. As a rule, though, it's based on reconstructions of historical periods, movements, tendencies, and individual phenomena in the Yugoslav art space.

Serbia on Your Plate Small Group Tour

This tour is best described as "Serbia on your plate." You'll learn all about Serbian culture while tasting many of the country's traditional dishes. We suggest skipping breakfast because this is one filling food tour, the equivalent of breakfast and lunch! Your enthusiastic young local guide will take you around central Belgrade, to visit 6 authentic venues and a green market, tasting 14 local specialties and 3 drinks along the way. During the tour you will be presented with two souvenirs and a special memory book. It's a tasty day, to say the least!

Art, Inside and Out

Bizzare, Bazaar, Skopje

For a capital city, Skopje is fairly small and walkable. For your first evening, we suggest walking along the Vardar River, passing the charming bridges and impressive buildings lining both banks. The many monuments in the city center may create a bizarre atmosphere, but they're undeniably interesting. Enjoy evening drinks on one of the fake ships built atop the shallow river. The boats offer a charming atmosphere, and the river's fresh breezes are helpful if you're visiting in summer. Finish your day with a dinner in one of the many restaurants offering live music.

Yugoslavian Skopje Private Tour

Get your bearings from the get-go, with a drive to Skopje's best panoramic point. You'll see, first from a distance, then close up, prominent places reflecting the distinctive architecture of the Yugoslavian period. One of the most representative monuments is the Fallen Fighters memorial near the Government Building, and the monument to Josip Broz Tito, in front of a school named in his honor. You'll continue to the Kale Fortress in the city center, which offers views of many other attractions, including Mother Teresa's birthplace. You'll end the tour with a visit to the Old Rail Station.
