Visit Golubac Fortress on the Danube, then ride an Iron Gate speed boat and finish with a rakija distillery tour and tasting.

“The tour was interesting and exciting. The fortress is very impressive. Our guide told us the history of the fortress and even several legends about it. In the fortress itself you can take a walk in the park, climb the towers (there are routes of varying difficulty at different prices), visit the museum and do archery). I highly recommend taking a boat or safari. Don't refuse additional emotions and the opportunity to see the fortress from different angles! Organization.
