Description

This tour starts with a convenient pick-up in Novi Sad in a modern Škoda Superb. You will explore Sremski Karlovci, a Baroque town known for its peaceful streets, small houses, historic churches, elegant palaces, and gardens.

At the Chapel of Peace, learn about its historical role as the site of the first round table negotiations, which gave rise to the term 'round table.' Walk through the main square to see the Four Lion Fountain, Karlovci Gymnasium, Town Hall, Roman Catholic Church, Serbian Orthodox Church of St. Nicholas, and other significant sites.

Enjoy a tasting of Bermet, a distinguished Serbian wine once served on the Titanic. Visit the monument of Baron Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel, who founded the Russian All-Military Union in Sremski Karlovci in 1924, uniting White Russian refugees.

Explore Fruška Gora Mountain, Serbia's oldest national park, and visit Krušedol Monastery, founded between 1509 and 1514 by Saint Maksim Branković and Saint Angelina of Serbia. This monastery is a cornerstone of Serbian Orthodox heritage.

The tour ends at Grgeteg Monastery, founded in 1471 and renewed in 1708 after the Great Migration of the Serbs.
