4.9(22)Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 22 reviews1 h 30 minFree cancellationBy Walking Belgrade
Look from the fortress to figure out why Belgrade is like no other city in Europe and how the city is rapidly changing in the present.

About this activity

2,000 years of history in 90 minutes.

Your guides are a historian and an art historian, whose accounts of the Fortress include personally lived experiences, besides the public history.

We take you to the selected vantage points, decode the Fortress' iconic monuments and highlight the decisive moments of its past.

You'll see the big picture of Belgrade and why this city is unique. The historical drama of the fatally strategic location, between the East and the West, unfolds before your eyes.

You'll grasp the border between the Balkans and the Central Europe, that has interested the Romans, the Byzantines, the Ottomans, the Hapsburgs, modern European powers, the USA and USSR. You'll hear how their rivalries shaped Belgrade's destiny.

The panoramic views will show you four different faces of Belgrade, each with own culture, rising above the rivers.

Plus, you'll discover a beautiful church with unique memorial decoration and an exciting military secret from the Cold War.
