Intro

Backpacking or travelling in Serbia?

  • Not many people go on holiday to Serbia anymore - undeservedly so because it is a beautiful country and because it is quite small you can experience a lot in a short trip. Discover Belgrade and the Danube villages around it, but also make sure you have time for the incredibly beautiful nature. And you can easily connect it with other countries on a Balkan tour, such as Croatia and Bosnia.
  • Activities spotting: discover the city centre and the Kalemegdan fortress of Belgrade; enjoy art and culture in Novi Sad; taste wines in Sremski Karlovci; take your picture at the Drina River House; walk along the “Iron Gate” in Djerdap National Park; dance at Exit Festival - Europe's largest music festival; visit the Studenica Monastery; ski in Kapaonik; taste local wines on the Vrsac wine route; walk through Tara National Park.
  • Animal spotting: Balkan lyx, Serbian hummingbird, wolf, bear, red deer, otters, wild boar.
  • Food spotting: cevapi, ajvar, pljeskavica, gibanica, karadjordjeva schnitzel, sarma, prebranac, slatko, rakija, krofne.

Living in Serbia?

  • Affordable living, lots of culture, a vibrant community and beautiful nature - it's not bad to live in Serbia. And because of its strategic location for trade in Europe, the country also has very good highways.
  • Education: Public education is free, but there are also international schools that children can attend.
  • Expat community: Small and growing, especially in Belgrade and Novi Sad. Most expats work in diplomacy or for international organizations and NGOs.
  • Safety: Generally safe, but it may be wise to be vigilant at night in larger cities.
  • Culture: Serbian culture is welcoming and sociable. Serbians enjoy festivals, music, dance and good conversation. Coffee culture is big, and you will find that many social moments take place around a cup of coffee.
  • Beware: Bureaucracy can be slow and confusing and learning Serbian will definitely help.
  • Health insurance: Healthcare in Serbia is affordable and good, although facilities in larger cities are often better equipped than those in smaller villages. There are also private clinics with good facilities, but make sure you have your own comprehensive health insurance.

Toeristenvisum Er is geen toeristenvisum nodig voor Servië voor een verblijf tot 90 dagen. Wil je langer blijven, dan zul je een verblijfsvergunning moeten aanvragen. Het is niet duidelijk of een return ticket verplicht is, er wordt in ieder geval volgens reizigers nooit om gevraagd. Het zou we...
