Amazing adventures in Europe’s wildest corner

Escape the crowds on one of our small group activity holidays and adventure tours in the Balkans! The density of culture and spectacular nature in this region is near unsurpassed, yet scarcely known by western tourists. Our British founders have been on a mission to change that since upping sticks in 2008 to a stunning lake straddling Albania and Montenegro.

Now in our 12th year, we’ve become the UK’s go-to specialists for activity holidays in the Balkans which head far from the beaten path. Our range of small group adventures will take you deep into the heart of some of Europe’s most beautiful and undiscovered places. Each trip has been crafted with our extensive local knowledge and thoroughly tested for awesomeness, so whether you’re into hiking, biking, kayaking, rafting, swimming, gastronomy or canyoning, we guarantee an unforgettable escape that will leave you as hooked on this region as we are.

You want stunning Adriatic coastline? We’ve got that. Fascinating cultural centres with delicious cuisine? We’ve got that. Soaring peaks and alpine mountains? Oh yes, we’ve got that. Pristine lakes, rivers, waterfalls and canyons? Guess what? We’ve got that!

There’s something for everyone, from family-friendly activity holidays to adrenalin-filled, super-active adventures, multi-day mountain romps, cross-border kayaking expeditions and more.

Currently we have offers in Montenegro, Albania, Kosovo, Bosnia, and Croatia – and the more we explore, the more trips we will be adding to this site. Watch this space!

Undiscovered Balkans is in Mali Ston.

Did you know that March is traditionally known as the month of oysters when they’re at their most tender and delicious? 🦪It’s such an important food and asset for the Mali Ston community who host our Croatia activity holiday, and celebrated every year with a big festival which took place last weekend!The tiny village of Brijesta was packed out with locals savouring the taste of the freshest oysters. You’ll get to do the same on our Croatia break, but having kayaked to see the oyster farms close-up. It makes for a pretty unique foodie adventure – and is best accompanied by some fine Peljasac wine 🍷 (after the kayaking of course)!😄Oyster farming is a tradition which has existed in Mali Ston Bay since the Romans ruled this area. So come and kayak, hike and cycle in the footsteps of history on our multi-active Croatia adventure week. 🛶🚵‍♂️🥾Hit the link below to book for this Spring, Summer or Autumn!undiscoveredbalkans.com/tours/dalmatia-multi-activity-holiday-croatia-7-days/#undiscoveredballkans #maliston #malistonoysterfestival #visitcroatia ...

Undiscovered Balkans
Isn't April a bit cold for outdoor adventures like canoeing, hiking and cycling? NO WAY! 😂 We get asked this a lot, so let’s end the myth. As part of Southern Europe, warm Spring days arrive early in Western Balkan countries like Albania, Montenegro and much of Croatia and Bosnia/Herzegovina.With fewer tourists around too, here's a secret - the early season's actually the best time of year to visit! Imagine sunny days, warm enough for outdoor fun in t-shirts, with blooming spring scenery all around (just look at our Spring adventure pics!). 🛶🚴🌼And for the more adventurous, you can even take an early season dip 💦 (wetsuits & thermal gloves/socks allowed 😆). Looking for a getaway this April or May? We've got you covered! Join one of our multi-activity holidays in Albania, Croatia, Bosnia or Montenegro and we'll give you 10% off per person. 😉Check our website and book now! 👇undiscoveredbalkans.com#undiscoveredbalkans #activityholidays ...
