Itinerary

Topola & Kragujevac Tour
- Meet your tour guide at the hotel in Serbia and start your tour.
- See the heart of Serbia and the area whose folklore motives were taken to represent the whole of the country. Besides, you will see beautiful hilly landscapes, which got the nickname to this area “The Tuscany of Serbia”.
- Go to the town of Serbia’s 19th-century revolution leader Karađorđe – Topola. There, you will visit a magnificent mausoleum church of the Karađorđević’s royal dynasty, the house of king Peter the 1st, and the Royal winery.
- Continue the tour towards the city of Kragujevac. The 4th biggest city of Serbia, Kragujevac is a big industrial and revolutionary center, which houses great WW2 memorial park “Šumarice”.
- Have a lunch break and then, see the birthplace of Serbian industry, a former armour factory complex, which takes you back to the time of the Industrial Revolution.
- Right next to it is the building of the first parliament of Serbia, since Kragujevac was the country’s capital from 1818 until 1841, in the period of rebellions against the Turks.
- Check out the former Court complex, built in traditional Balkans style, the first Grammar school in Serbia, and the first theatre.
- By visiting Kragujevac you will see a typical Serbian city, and also the people, since Belgrade and Novi Sad are far more cosmopolitan, so they cannot be considered to be true representatives of Serbia.
