The ancient heart of the Balkans
The eclectic Serbian capital is a kaleidoscope of colour, culture and captivating history. Known locally as the White City, there’s so much to discover here, from traditional Balkan architecture to a centuries-old fortress and a sophisticated food scene.
Fly to Belgrade with British Airways and stroll through the vibrant mural-lined streets of this intriguing city. Marvel at its architecture, from brutalist blocks to art nouveau masterpieces, and then head to the heart of town to explore the energetic Republic Square. Visit the National Museum and the sculpture of Prince Mihailo, and then make a pitstop to savour some traditional Serbian delights. Try burek, a warm flaky pastry filled with melted cheese, and slivovitz, a damson plum brandy that’s also Serbia’s national drink. Roam through the old town’s narrow, cobbled passageways and soak up the sounds of Balkan brass in Skadarlija, the bohemian quarter. Before you leave, climb Mount Avala and gaze out across Serbia’s verdant pine forests, sparkling mountain springs and beyond. Book your holiday to Belgrade now.

If you’re planning a city break in Belgrade, you can easily make your trip fit your budget. This city can be very affordable compared to other more touristy destinations in Europe, especially if you make the most of the local Serbian cuisine. Belgrade has a huge host of authentic cafes and restaurants where you can sample traditional Serbian dishes at reasonable prices.
The journey from Belgrade’s Nikola Tesla Airport to the city centre usually takes around 30 minutes, and you can get there by taxi, public bus or shared shuttle. Once you’re in the city centre, you’ll find Belgrade is very walkable with lots of large pedestrianised areas, so it’s a great city to get to know on foot. There’s also a busy public transport system with regular buses to take you across town. All you need to do is buy a travel card from a local kiosk to make the most of public transport in the city.
Belgrade is a quirky, energetic and creative city where there’s so much to explore. While you’re here, stroll through Kalemegdan Park and visit the ancient, ominous Belgrade Fortress, whicbrh overlooks the point where the Danube and Sava rivers meet. See the city’s most striking church, the Church of Saint Sava – a grand white marble temple that’s been a work in progress for over a hundred years. Enjoy some natural beauty at Ada Ciganlija, Belgrade’s river island which is a little oasis away from the bustle of the city. Here you’ll find oak and elm forests to explore as well as plenty of picturesque swimming spots.
