Description
Embark on a journey along the majestic Danube River as you travel from Belgrade to the stunning Golubac Fortress. Perched on towering cliffs at the river’s widest point, this medieval stronghold captivates visitors with its mystical towers and fairytale-like charm. Climb to one of the fortress’s viewpoints, and you’ll see why locals say the Danube resembles the sea from here. Experience breathtaking panoramic views from one of Serbia’s best-preserved fortifications. Next, immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Kapetan Mišin Breg, an eco-ethno complex offering spectacular views of the Đerdap Gorge. Named after a revered captain, the site features an open-air gallery, 'Man, Wood, Water', showcasing an impressive collection of wooden and stone sculptures.

Marvel at the striking rock carving of Dacian King Decebal and catch a glimpse of the Mraconia Monastery on the Romanian side. Conclude your cruise with a visit to Tabula Traiana, a Roman plaque commemorating Emperor Trajan’s ambitious engineering feat, constructing a road through the gorge’s most challenging terrain. After an unforgettable day exploring history, nature, and culture, return to Belgrade with memories of the Danube’s timeless beauty.Includes
