Highlights Tour

Can’t wait to discover Belgrade? Running out of time before leaving town? Or do you just want to surprise someone in true Yugo style? Get picked up or dropped off at the airport before or after your tour in a classic Zastava. Just let us know your take-off or arrival time when you book, and we'll be there with bells on.

Even if this most iconic of brutalist buildings in Belgrade is included in your tour, you should add this visit to an apartment inside. Our architect friends at Brutalist Belgrade created an exhibition space in this high-rise, where you can probe deeper into Belgrade’s brutalist architecture and enjoy the amazing views while you're up there.

The term ‘hidden gem’ gets thrown around a lot nowadays, but in the case of Tito’s train it truly is apt. Hidden in a huge train depot in the industrial outskirts, a group of devoted mechanics keeps this marvel of socialist-strongman luxury in such a condition that a reanimated Marshal Tito would gladly use it tomorrow. As it happened, his last journey on this train was inside his coffin, wending his way across Yugoslavia in a farewell to the people. It's extremely difficult to see it on your own, so be sure to add an extra hour to discover Tito’s Blue Train.

If you want to see the most Yugoslavian of Yugoslav places, this is a must-see. Visit the graves of Tito and his last wife Jovanka, and learn about who he was and the consequences of his death. At the same complex you'll find an eclectic selection of gifts Tito received, from an actual piece of the moon to ancient weapons. Throughout it all, the story of Yugoslavia is told—from the rise to the fall of Tito’s socialist dream.

If you came to Belgrade for its impressive and sometimes crazy socialist architecture, then make sure to add a ride through the largest of its brutalist housing projects. You might spot the rows and rows of these concrete staircases from the plane when you fly in, but it's even more impressive when you're walking among these giants.

Our only package featuring this imposing trio of towers is the Grand Architecture Tour, if only because they're a bit hard to reach. But if you've only been to the Genex Building—Belgrade's Western Gate—then your list really isn't yet complete, at least not until you've visited this Eastern Gate of the city. Take a trip with us to the top floor of this brutalist behemoth.
