About This Tour

This Belgrade underground tour takes you below Belgrade Fortress to see tunnels, a bunker and a cave built over several centuries. It’s a 2.5-hour walk with a local guide, and it suits travelers who like history and want to see a side of the city most visitors miss. It ends with a glass of local sparkling wine by the Sava river.

What you see underground

  • Roman Well: despite the name, the Austrians built it in the 18th century. A lot of stories are tied to this place, and it’s said to have been Alfred Hitchcock’s favorite spot in Belgrade.
  • Cold War army bunker: built after World War II, in the time of President Tito. Here you hear how Tito played the great powers against each other.
  • Gunpowder warehouse: a cave the Austrians built as part of the fortress, when it defended Christian Europe against the Ottoman Empire. You can touch the walls. Today it’s also an exhibition space with sarcophagi and altars from archaeological sites around Serbia.

Along the way you also see remains of the Roman fortress, and the guide connects each site to a different period of Belgrade’s history.

What past travelers say
