No. There is a lunch break in a traditional restaurant, but you pay for your own meal.
Most stops are short and close to the vehicle. The longest walk is to the Banjska Rock viewpoint, so you need a moderate fitness level. The tour is not wheelchair accessible and not recommended for pregnant travelers.
Banjska Rock needs good weather because of its height. If the weather is bad, that stop is replaced with a visit to the Šargan Eight train in Mokra Gora.
