About This Tour

Enjoy the wonderful nature of National Park in the lingest and deepest gorge in Europe rich with archaeological heritage! The most beautiful medieval fortress and Roman Tabula Taiana will take you on a journey through history.

Detailed Itinerary

1

Let us introduce you to the majestic Danube River, a true natural monument. Flowing through ten countries, including ours, this second-longest river in Europe has long been a vital link between nations. Once the dividing line of the mighty Roman Empire, the Danube remains a significant route connecting the edges of the Old Continent. Known as the "old giant," this river has been the birthplace of countless civilizations and cultures, with historical sites along Serbia’s banks serving as a testament to its enduring legacy.

2

Follow the path of the mighty Danube to your first stop, the Golubac Fortress. Perched on towering cliffs at the river’s widest point, this medieval stronghold enchants visitors with its mystical towers and fairytale-like atmosphere. Climb to one of the fortress’s viewpoints, and you’ll understand why locals claim the Danube resembles the sea from this vantage point. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views from one of Serbia’s best-preserved fortifications.

3

Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Kapetan Mišin Breg, an eco-ethno complex offering spectacular views of the Đerdap Gorge. Named after a revered captain, the site features an open-air gallery, "Man, Wood, Water", showcasing an impressive collection of wooden and stone sculptures.

4

After a relaxing lunch, set sail through the Iron Gate Gorge, the narrowest and deepest section of the Danube. Marvel at the striking rock carving of Dacian King Decebal and catch a glimpse of the Mraconia Monastery on the Romanian side. Conclude your cruise with a visit to Tabula Traiana, a Roman plaque commemorating Emperor Trajan’s ambitious engineering feat, constructing a road through the gorge’s most challenging terrain.
