Lots of food, great guide - I did the longer “Serbia on a bigger plate” tour. There was a LOT of food and it was all great. Got to see various areas of the city including the picturesque town of Zemun by the Danube. Marija was a fantastic guide. I would definitely recommend.

Great tour with guide Mariya - I went with a friend to Belgrad for longer weekend, we did a couple of tours but this one was by far the best, our guide Mariya not only showed us the city and the food and drinking culture, but also explained us the Yougoslavian and Serbian history I highly recommend it!

Great way to learn about Serbia / Belgrad and be full up by the end ! - Our tour started at an old tavern in the centre of Belgrade we got taken on a relaxed walking route to about 5 different places with some food or a drink at each place. There was a good variety of places to stop old, new and street food. The food is mixed - some sweet and some savoury. Our guide was very knowledge and passionate about the city of Belgrade and at the end of the tour a felt like a had a much better understanding of Serbian culture and also I was very full no food needed after the tour!

A wonderful food tour! - A must do in Belgrade! The food was excellent as well as the host, Matija. Highly recommend this tour if you are interested in sampling local Serbian dishes and exploring restaurants that you likely would not find on your own. Overall, a great food tour!

Amazing food and history tour - We had an amazing time on the tour, our guide Maria (sorry if we have got the name wrong) was absolutely amazing. Myself and my girlfriend were the only people on the tour but it was not awkward in the slightest, Our guide was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable and we learnt so much about the history of Serbia and Belgrade. All the food was delicious, the meze being our highlight. We were very full so it was very fortunate that we were able to take some of the food home with us and have it later. Fantastic experience, learnt so much about Serbian culture and history, would highly recommend!

Best Food Walking Tour in Belgrade! - Our food walking tour with Marija in Belgrade was superb! We met her in front of the Question Mark Restaurant where we drank traditional coffee and Marija provided the history of the restaurant, the area, and Belgrade. But, by the end of the tour, we visited 3 restaurants, a store that sold an appetizer/dessert made from finely puréed potato that tasted similar to pie crust, rolled into a ball, and stuffed with a variety of different fillings, including raspberry and pistachio, ate a variety of salami meats, cheeses, grilled meats, side dishes, a special Kosovo food made at one of the restaurants owned by a family from Kosovo, alcoholic drinks (if we wanted-beer, wine, or their traditional drink.), and ice cream from a shop that sold a large number of creative flavors. And through all of that, Marija continued to talk about what Serbia had been like for her grandparents in their day, her parents, and currently for her. She was a teacher for 8 years and her English is flawless. She is succinct in her explanations and descriptions and provided the tour in such an orderly manner, she left us wondering how she so adeptly tied it all together for us. Go to Belgrade and take this tour! And make sure they show you where James Bond was born. You will love the company, the food, the history, and the stories!

Start off your visit in Belgrade with a great tour and food - Very good tour and a great way to start a weekend in Belgrade. Marina showed us some cool locations and the history behind them. We went to some of the locations she showed us several times afterwards, e.g Question Mark restaurant, Gunners Pub (we couldn’t find the Cevapi-place which was the best one we tried during the weekend)

Absolutely fantastic! - Marina was an absolutely fantastic guide. And the tour was perfect. I ended up on the tour alone, which I was worried would be awkward, but Marina was a fabulous conversationalist- and so knowledgeable!She knew so much fascinating history! The tour was an easy walk with lots of stop in between. We started with coffee and went to a total of 5 places - I was pleasantly full - but not painfully stuffed. All of the food was diverse and in such great neighborhoods! I would 100% recommendation this tour to anyone who loves food, history, or just a great stroll with someone who can help you get or know the city. Well worth the money I paid! I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you!
