This morning we will have the opportunity to ride the Zlatibor’s Gold Gondola (extra), the longest panoramic lift in the world. Later, we will walk along the beautiful Zlatibor Lake and fragrant meadows with a short break in the local market where one can buy traditional products such as woodcarvings, handwork crafts and souvenirs, smoked ham, and kaymak, a traditional creamy dairy product. We will then drive to Sirogojno and visit the “Staro Selo Sirogojno”, an open-air museum or “ethno village” known as the Old Village Museum. The ethno village displays a set of traditional wooden buildings, including a bakery, a dairy, and an inn, all in authentic form.

FRIDAY | Today, our optional full-day excursion will take us towards a location situated in central Serbia, where the Zapadna Morava river has carved a gorge, impressive in scale, between the mountains of Ovcar and Kablar. Here, we will have time for a boat ride (included) before heading towards a medieval monastery, unique for its location and the era in which it came into being. In terms of its cultural and spiritual significance, as well as its artistic value, this monastery is second only to the monasteries of Fruka Gora.

SUNDAY | Today, we can enjoy a day surrounded by nature! Our full-day optional excursion will take us to visit Uvac Lake. We will make our way to the marvellous lake with Jeeps. The lake consists of a compound of unreal meanders that nature carved in a miraculous way, showing off the most beautiful color of crystal-clear waters. Our day will help us forget about civilization for a short while, and we can relax whilst hearing the sounds of nature and enjoying the unspoiled natural wealth. We shall have a boat ride on Zlatar Lake (Kokin Brod). MONDAY | Our last full-day optional excursion will take us first to Stopica Cave (extra), famous for its 10m high subterranean waterfall, but also its climate.

Set in the valley of Detinja River, surrounded by magnificent beauties of mountains Tara and Zlatibor, there is a centre of the former Republic of Uzice and one of the eight Tito’s cities – the city of Uzice. Many people pass by this city which holds a long and wild history. TUESDAY | This morning, we will check-out of our rooms and make our way to Belgrade.
