When is the best time to visit Serbia?
The optimal time to visit Serbia varies depending on your preferences and planned activities.

Autumn (September to November) brings cooler temperatures and vibrant foliage, ideal for nature lovers and cultural events like wine tasting tours. Winter (December to February) is cold and snowy, offering opportunities for winter sports enthusiasts at Serbia's ski resorts, as well as festive celebrations in cities like Belgrade. Ultimately, the best time to visit Serbia hinges on your interests, with something appealing year-round. Our Serbia tours mostly run during the spring, summer and autumn months.

Can I drink the tap water in Serbia?
The tap water in Serbia is safe to drink, particularly in the big cities such as Belgrade. Consider bringing a reusable water bottle on tour with you - this will save you money and help to reduce your plastic footprint. The tap water in more rural parts of Serbia may not be safe to drink so it is recommended to stick to bottled water whilst travelling in these areas.
What transportation do you use in Serbia?
In Serbia we make use of private minibuses and coaches with comfortable seating and large windows for admiring the view as we travel between destinations.

The official currency in Serbia is the Serbian Dinar. Check OANDA for the latest exchange rates. Note that the countries of the Balkans use a variety of different currencies, so it is easiest to pay by credit or debit card if travelling through a number of countries, or to withdraw cash locally.
