    We went on this marvellous trip and loved every single minute of it. The itinerary was excellent and absolutely fascinating. All the hotels were super, and we travelled in a very comfortable, new mini bus with a charming driver. Above all, we had the best tour guide of all time, Marko, whose knowledge of the history and politics of the region is extensive. At certain places, we also had local guides who were always punctual and knowledgeable. The administration of our tour was seamless, thanks to the highly professional, Ivona. There was nothing about the tour that we didn't like. We have travelled with many tour operators, but Balkan&more went the extra mile, and we certainly hope to travel with them again. We cannot recommend them enough to future travellers.

    What an incredible 10-day Balkan adventure with Balkan & More! From my very first inquiry, their team was exceptionally responsive, so it was no surprise that the trip itself exceeded all expectations. Although I booked a group tour, there were only two of us—myself and one other traveler—paired with a dedicated driver/guide. We all clicked instantly, and having a comfortable sedan instead of a van made our journey even more enjoyable. Each hotel was fantastic and perfectly situated, and every tour was expertly curated. If you’re thinking about exploring the Balkans, don’t hesitate—book with Balkan & More. You won’t regret it!

    This was a comprehensive tour of Serbia, Romania, and Bulgaria arranged very efficiently by Balkan&more, especially Ivona. All the arrangements went through smoothly, and our guide Igor and driver Zika were very professional and competent, and very friendly and nice too! They all took good care of us and we are very happy with the services received. We definitely recommend Balkan&more for any travel arrangements in the Balkans. We enjoyed every moment!

    The tour itinerary was really good and the guide and driver were very patient and kind. The hotels were good but the tour company could have considered alternatives, specially in Belgrade, where there is only 1 elevator which allows only 2 people to travel in it at one time. Not very useful.
