Our Serbia adventure is featured by Forbes as one of 15 top trips for 2025! 🎉 A huge thank you to writer Ann Abel for shining a spotlight on smaller companies, who prioritise principles as well as profits — who truly care about the destinations they share with travellers. Serbia holds a special place in our hearts, and it’s a joy to showcase this hidden corner of Europe in a way that’s as rewarding for our host communities as it is for our guests. If you’re dreaming of a proper adventure in 2025, Serbia is calling, and specifically our romp around its Western bit that will take you kayaking, hiking, river wading and more!🌿 Thank you, Forbes, for the honour!

New Family Hiking Adventure: Peaks of the Balkans 🌄But families don’t hike! Or do they? 😉 After popular request, we’ve created a hiking holiday that’s especially for families with kids age 7+, opening up the epic Peaks of the Balkans trail in Montenegro and Albania! Step aside, Mont Blanc, if your mini adventurers are used to hiking, this is the perfect cross-border trail and it’s set in stupendously beautiful alpine mountains similar to the Dolomites. Wow yourself, and the kids, with treks that are eminently achievable with a few snacks and motivators (Wild swims! Wild blueberries! Balkan doughnuts! Animals!). Spend a day with local shepherds, and relax mid-week at an idyllic homestay by Theth where waterfalls and swimming are the order of the day. Over 6 days, you’ll cover 55-64km (yes you can do it!), all with the support of our expert family mountain guide, and possibly a mule. 🥾⛰️🐴 If your family loves hiking, this is your next adventure. Book it here for summer 2025:👉 undiscoveredbalkans.com/tours/7-day-family-hiking-peaks-of-the-balkans/#undiscoveredbalkans #familyhiking #peaksofthebalkans ... See MoreSee Less
