What people love about 2-week Balkans tours
- Balkan Experience – seven countries in two weeks - SMALL GROUP
My husband and I just returned from the Seven Countries in Fourteen Days tour of the Balkan countries operated by Victor Tours in Belgrade. We have prioritized travel throughout our half-century of marriage, and we have visited more than 130 countries. Now, for the first time, we are writing a review and recommendation of the tour company. We were so impressed by every aspect of this tour that we would like to share our exceptional experience with others. First of all, the itinerary was excellent. Our motivation to travel comes from the desire to see the world’s diverse and stunning beauty, to gain a better understanding of world history, to interact with people of different cultures and with different customs, and to have some additional time to rest and relax. I am so pleased to report that this tour fulfilled all these hopes and expectations. The scenery varied from the beautiful greenest green landscapes to snow-covered mountain tops. Not uncommonly, the abundant sparkling rivers were crossed by picturesque ancient bridges. The Adriatic coastline with its sparkling seashores was set against a backdrop of quaint towns with interesting shops, great food, and fascinating medieval structures. We traveled in a comfortable vehicle. The guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and was able and willing to answer an amazingly broad range of questions. He went out of his way to find the most interesting stops, and he was consistently considerate and attentive to our personal needs and desires. The hotels were truly outstanding. They ranged from modern to historic, but all were top-notch and in great locations. We enjoyed delicious food in all seven of the countries. Plus, we had the comfort of knowing our safety and well-being were always being safeguarded. We genuinely hope there will be future opportunities to travel with Victor Tours.

- Semi-Private Balkans Tour; From Athens to Sarajevo or Belgrade
We had a great tour of the Balkans. Our tour included Montenegro, Albania, Prizren in Kosovo and Ohrid in Macedonia. I loved Komani Lake, Prizren, Gjirokaster, Ohrid Lake and Berat tour. The company is very professional and made sure to check with us during the tour if everything was going well. We loved Tirana day tour also, a very vibrant and dynamic city. Best company for culture tours in the region
