After exploring Belgrade for a few days we decided to explore the Western part of Serbia- Tara National Park and some other smaller cities en-route for an overnight trip. Perhaps... read more one of our best decisions as not only did we see the Serbian countryside, we also met with Nicola, our tour guide who truly made this trip very memorable. Nicola, apart from being extremely knowledgeable, is a very kind and warm person, extremely engaging and relatable. He understood where our interests lie (local culture and food) and ensured he included that in the mix of activities we did while we were him for those two days. I am a curious traveler and Nicola patiently answered all our questions highlighting history, culture, architecture, flora-fauna, etc. I have travelled extensively and rarely have I met someone with such diverse knowledge and passion.

A big THANK YOU to Nicola for sharing his knowledge with us, for showing us a side of the country which we otherwise would have missed (and regretted!), for being an amazing travel buddy! If you are visiting Serbia, I’d strongly recommend connecting with Nicola!

PS: Nicola is a great photographer 🙂

  Archeological site especially the mammoth skeleton,
Golubac fortress.
Our tour guide Mr Nikola was very friendly and very informative. We really had a very good time.

  We recently visited Belgrade and Novi Sad , Serbia and had an amazing experience. Our tour guide Mr. Nikola was fantastic!! He was extremely knowledgeable, professional and punctual. We learned... read more so much of the history of the Yugoslavic Republics. Mr. Nikola is truly one of the best guides we have had in all of our travels abroad!! Definitely recommend him!!

  When we chose Serbia for this trip, none of us had an idea how good it will be. Few friends’ suggestions Google was the only help. A call with... read more Mr. Nichola gave more clarity . He and Ms. Ana designed a 10 days itinerary according to our convenience. Places to visit and places for stay were their suggestions. Mr. Vlada was assigned as our tour guide. A person with thorough knowledge about history and terrain of the country. He took care of us throughout , chose the local food for us to taste and made these 10 days easy for us. All together a very professional approach. Serbia became one of our favorite places after this. Thanks to Nichola and Vlada for making this trip a memorable one. I will recommend strongly Nikolo and his crew for who all loved to visit Serbia . They are a 100 percent reliable team .

  My husband and I had a fantastic time exploring Serbia and it's all thanks to Nikola and Belgrade Private Tours. Nikola understood our requirements perfectly well and that we... read more didn't need a conventional "tour guide" taking us through every possible "touristy" experience (though I'm sure they'll ace that too!).

He designed a flexible yet very detailed and enriching 3-4 day tour for us around Belgrade and the Mokra Gora mountains. We saw and experienced places and things which were not planned and that was the best part of it all. Nikola was super informative about the history of the region, art and culture, good food in Serbia and excursions -- all that we were after! and this came with a very affable, easy-going and efficient style! He went above and beyond our expectations with the tour and we are so happy to have made a new friend too! Will definitely be back!

  Great solo tour with local historian who knows his architecture and history behind it all. Great communication leading up to the tour as well!

  I have asked Belgrade Private tours if they would support and guide me for a vaccination in Belgrade. As Serbia is offering the non MRNA and Vector vaccines eg Sinopharm... read more i booked the package: pickup at Airport, bring to vaccination station and bring back to Airport on same day. Nikola was punctual, very supporting and helping and I could realize my goal to get the vaccine i wanted.
As I had some more time, Nikola brought me for a walk to the river and we had a nice walk and I got some insights from Belgrade.
Back at home I realized that the vaccination certificate had the wrong passport number on it, they added my ID numer to the pasport number and vice versa. Ive tried to solve it by my self but as all is written in serbian language it was difficult, i asked Nikola for help and he could solve the issue, he went to the vaccination station next day and corrected the mistake with the team onsite. All in one Belgrade private tours is very flexible not ony for sightseeing, also for such special trips. Very reliable, professional, helpful, and trustworthy. i can highly recommend Belgrade private tours.

  I was incredibly fortunate to come across Belgrade Private Tours in advance of my visit to Serbia, and even more fortunate that due to the COVID slowdown, Nikola was available... read more on short notice to guide me for two days in and around Belgrade, and also on a Panonia private tour to the Kovilj Monasterty, Novid Sad, Sremski Karlovci, and a fantastic local winery, among other sites.

Simply put, Nikola is a master host, and the title of "guide" does not even begin to capture his many talents, including his seemingly endless knowledge of history, language, and politics, among many other disciplines. Having traveled throughout the Balkans on prior occasions, I can honestly say that I came away with a far better understanding of this complex region in my two days spent with Nikola than I did in weeks of independent travel. In fact, Nikola even provided great insights into places I had visited on my own years earlier in Croatia, Montenegro, and Slovenia!

And while Nikola provides vital context to Serbia's centuries of history at the crossroads of the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires, it's not all history and politics. My tours with Nikola were great fun much like time spent with a good friend, as we shared meals and coffees along the way, and chatted about life in modern Serbia, the Balkans conflict of the 1990s, and many other topics. And to top it all off, Nikola was kind enough to snap pictures along the way and email them to me when I got home!

In sum, a tour with Nikola is an absolute no brainer if he is available (and that is a big if, as he regularly guides international and Serbian groups throughout the Balkans and Europe). You simply cannot cover as much ground or material on your own, and it is great fun to travel through Serbia with a guy as fun and knowledgeable as Nikola, all for a price that is far too reasonable. Contacting Nikola is the best decision you will make on your trip to Serbia!

  We will visit Belgrade again 10 hours were not enough!  - Excellent tour by the driver Nikola. He met us at the Belgrade airport at 06:30 he show us the city and explain a lot of things in Belgrade.
At 16:00... read more he drive us (me and my wife) back to the airport

  Had an awesome day with Nikola heading to Topola and then wine tasting in the Alexsandrovic Winery followed by dinner at the Lovacki Raj restaurant. Very informative and personable tour... read more and would strongly recommend Nikola and his company. Thanks for a great day
