About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Prit720 contributionsExcellent trip. Exceptional guide and highly professional.I really enjoyed this tour. Each stop was interesting and well timed allowing the right amount of time to appreciate it without rushing but also without lingering. The guide, Dragana, stood out for her knowledge and experience. In addition to expected knowledge of Serbia, she had interesting perspectives from meeting people from different countries and speaking multiple languages. This made this trip more in depth than usual. The mini bus and driver, George, were also very good. Overall, this was excellent, especially at this price.Written October 2, 2024
- Luxury1Georgia0 contributionsExcellent Private Tour of SerbiaWe chose Victor Tours to arrange a private tour for our visit to Serbia. We were extremely pleased with Victor Tours and would not hesitate to recommend this company. Mihajlo listened to our preferences and arranged the perfect private tour for us. The guide, Radenko, was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Highly recommended!Written September 27, 2024
- 765tejam0 contributionsGreat experience with a wonderful guideOur trip was truly elevated and made much easier by the wonderful guide Dragana, who led us through the most beautiful parts of the city and unveiled the hidden gems of Belgrade. Her relaxed demeanor, combined with her enthusiasm and passion for history, made her stories and anecdotes all the more captivating. It was clear that she loves her work. We are eagerly looking forward to our next visit to Belgrade, hoping she will once again delight us with her exceptional guiding.Written September 24, 2024

- nct10 contributionsDon’t miss this tour !!!!Had an amazing day with Marcos and Dragon our driver! Rocky start (not their fault, mine ) but Marcos jiggled the schedule , met me on my way from the airport and rescued the day. Marcos was incredibly knowledgeable and both made for a great day of sight seeing , history and fun. What life is all about!!Written September 23, 2024

- D7532FRsuel0 contributionsGood trip.We enjoyed everything especially Novi Sad. We would spend more time there if we travel here again. I thought Sremski Karlovci was beautiful and interesting. We would’ve liked more wine tasting. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable.Written September 12, 2024
- Npk920 contributionsThe tour I needed to see the top highlights of Belgrade in one day.I had only one full day to see as much as I could in Belgrade and this tour was exactly was I needed to do it. I was picked up promptly by the group at 9:25 am outside my hotel and the day tour began... In total, the tour lasted about 8 hours. I’d like to give a big special thank you to our tour guide Milica and our driver Sasha. Milica did a great job guiding us through all the sites and so did Sasha by driving us around to all of the said sites promptly and safely. We saw many of the top sites in Belgrade including the Belgrade Fortress, Avala Mountain and Tower, Zemun, and St. Sava Temple. We had an amazing group on this tour as well, made some great friends. If you’re limited on time in Belgrade and need a way to see as much as possible on 1 day definitely book this tour. I thought it was well worth it as the highlights in Belgrade are kind of far apart and not very walkable from each other. - NolanWritten September 10, 2024

- MADforTravelItaly0 contributionsA day in Eastern SerbiaGreat trip to Golubac Fortress and Iron Gate Gorge. Our guide Alex was friendly, informative and took care to make sure we were fully informed and also safe. Definitely recommend, comfortable mini bus trip. We had appropriate amount of time on our own and plenty of time to relax at the Eco restaurant.Written August 26, 2024
- gabymendieta19600 contributionsA tour to take!Excellent! Totally recommended! Alexander was very professional and knowledgeable! Take it if you will stay in Belgrade for few days.Written August 26, 2024
- eldredgew20160 contributionsHow much can you see in one day?!WoW... what a tour! It really is a BIG Tour... you walk, you ride, you look, you see, you hear... then you do it some more! It is a BIG day. I think we got lucky as an overflow group and ended up with only 3 people. This really allowed our guide Drazen to shine... His talks were like drinking Serbian History through a fire hose! He is clearly deeply knowledgeable. We were also able to see his friendly personality and enjoy a lunch together with him. While not everyone may be as fortunate to have such an intimate experience, I am confident that the larger groups still see all the same sights and have well educated articulate guides who love their country and enjoy sharing it with visitors!Written August 23, 2024

- georgebk09090 contributionsIncredible value, incredible viewsIf you're wanting to see as much of Belgrade as you can in one day, then this is the #1 way to do it (and it's not even close!). Not only does this cover most of the main attractions but you'll also see a ton of the city in between. An unbelievably good deal.Written August 20, 2024
- BenS8620 contributionsFantastic value for money.The itinerary ensured that we saw lots and the guide Milica was fantastic. Very knowledgable in all things architecture, Serbian history and art. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip.Written August 14, 2024

This trip was the highlight of my Serbian's stay. We spend an amazing day with Jovan in the mountains seeing many wonderful sights. The train ride on sargan eight was, to me, the best part of the day but everything was perfect. Our guide Jovan was extremely nice, pationate and soooo knowledgeable about Serbia. His driving trough extreme fog in the mountain was impressive! He also brought us to very local place to eat and I had the best meal of my trip there. Please note this is a long day (from around 8am to around 9pm) but so worth it!!

Fantastic trip with very knowledgeable guide. The house on the river Drina was a lovely spot and it would have been nice to have spent longer here relaxing/having a drink but it is somewhere to return to and visit another time. The Sargan 8 Railway was great. Overall the tour picked some great highlights and the scenery on the journey and information from the guide was fantastic.

An amazing tour that offers a train ride which gives mini flavor of Switzerland, Scotland, Germany and better landscapes in Serbia. From picturesque Drina to Mokra Gora and short train this tour is packed with beauty of Western Serbia including hills and mountains. Wooden Town feels like you have entered a village 300-400 years back ...

The tour was fabulous - so many cool things to see and do but what made it so special was out guide. Ivan was such a wonderful guy - the long drive went so fast with his entertaining stories and cool Serbian music. I could not recommend this one more.

Amazing day trip from Belgrade. Aleksandar was our guide and was truly exceptional. As a history buff, I love to ask questions on tours and he always had the answers. This tour is a great way to see the countryside of Serbia and get to tour some one of a kind locations. Aleksandar provided great recommendations and was a great source of knowledge. He provided exceptional unbiased history of the Balkan region.
Victor tours was extremely accommodating and easy to communicate with them. Very fast email responses with solutions to any problems.
When I return to Serbia I will definitely use Victor Tours!

It took us 3 hours to reach but amazing
However it is better to do railway FIRST before the wooden village. We had to catch the train at 1.30pm. So all stops to the Drina river n wooden village were toooo brief.NEED more time at the wooden village

I had the best time on this tour. Although it was rainy and snowy, it was still amazing. Our guide, Milos, had buckets of info regarding Serbias history and where we went.
Thanks for a great day. I fell in love with Western Serbia

Hye there....just private tour not by group tour...how it is..☺

In the advert on Trip advisor it says the price is from £50.16. When you check availability it immediately says that the cost is £114.02
That is over 50% increase.
I understand that there may be different costs depending on high and low season, but this seems to be ridiculous! My date was definitely in the low season. Is this a way to entice you to click on the advert?
