It was a fantastic tour. Our guide, Bojan, had such incredible knowledge of the sights and area. It was fun to walk around with the group and hear everything he had to say. Would highly recommend it to get a feel for the city/country. Interesting, educative and fun!

We were able to spend 3 instructive and exciting hours with Adesa. She told and showed various places and elements in the city in great detail and always with reference to the historical background.

Our Guide Bojan did an excellent job. He is very knowledgeable and gave us an extensive tour through this impressive city. A really great way to start your visit.
