Day 8 Belgrade, Serbia (B,L,D)
Morning motor coach tour of this lively and vibrant capital will include all of the major attractions: Kalemegdan Fortress, St. Sava’s Orthodox Cathedral, and many other highlights ending with a stroll through Knez Mihajlova Pedestrian Street. But the fun has just begun! Instead of lunch on board, continue on to an authentic Serbian ethno restaurant where you will enjoy an authentic Serbian lunch, including wonderful Serbian home-made food, local “shlivovitz” (plumb brandy), live music and unique Serbian hospitality! Tonight, your Serbian experience will end on a high note with a private on-board folk show! As you set sail, be sure to go to the sun deck to view the gorgeous city lights framing the Sava bridges and the magnificent Kalemegdan Fortress perched on a hill right above the port!
Day 9 At Sail – “The Iron Gate” (B,L,D)
Morning at sail to enjoy the passing vistas and on board activities! Weather permitting, give your taste buds a gift with a BBQ lunch on the sun deck featuring local delicacies from the Balkans. The highlight of the day will be the passage through the “The Iron Gates“, the highest gorge on the Danube. Over 100 km long, this canyon, was a gigantic obstacle to navigation because of its pointed rocks, cliffs, and changing water levels, surrounded with very wild, yet attractive nature. This danger was finally overcome in 1972, with the building of the “Djerdap” locks. Tonight prepare for fun and festivities at your Captain’s Farewell Dinner! Overnight in Vidin, Bulgaria.
