ABOUT THIS ITINERARY
A Danube day from the capital: the fortress of 1430, the quay at sunset, and the vineyards in between — Serbia’s last medieval state in one afternoon.
OVERVIEW
The route at a glance
Smederevo rewards a single well-built day: the fortress in the morning light, lunch on the quay, a cellar in the afternoon and the walls at sunset — 45 minutes from Belgrade each way, or the slow Danube train for romantics.
