The venue is pretty, but not worth the effort to walk there on a super hot day. This trip just gets you into the standard, regular group tour and there we're about 50 people in the group- so not a small group with a separate tour guide, which is what I expected.

An amusing and informative guide (Serbian Diaca) led us around these popular attractions telling us much of the backstory and giving us real insights! He really looked after us and we got to understand the history and royal connections.

The actual tour with guide. Sometimes difficult to hear and follow but it was a nice experience. The areas we were shown were amazing and interesting. Enjoyed hearing about the history and description of each room and staircase we visited. Part of the reason for not achieving "amazing" had more to do with the tour company instructions for preparing to visit the Parliament. We experienced difficulty understanding tour company guidance on what was acceptable to take through security and where to leave personal belongings if you chose not to bring on the tour.

The bus was in very bad condition, air condition not working properly! The city stop was not needed and long lines at the first stop. The guide Roxana was excellent by the way 💪💪💪💪
