THE FIRST EUROPEAN CIVILIZATIONS

Danube is the second longest river in Europe and it reaches its maximum in Serbia, with the greatest width of 6.5 kilometers, and greatest depth of 92 meters, and it formed longest gorge in Europe - Djerdap Gorge that’s 99 kilometers long. Some of the first European civilizations were spread in this area.

Visit to the Smederevo Fortress, the biggest lowland fortress of Europe. Follows visit to Viminacium, one of the largest Roman cities above which no new settlement was built. After that we visit Golubac Fortress, one of the most beautiful medieval fortresses on the Danube where the Danube is widest (6,5 km) and that’s just before the Djerdap Gorge, the largest gorge in Europe where the Danube is deepest (92 meters), then we will visit Lepenski Vir archaeological site, the oldest urban settlement in Europe (7000 years BC).

Lunch at ethno-complex on the hill above Danube will be excellent refreshment. Before getting back we can organize cruise along Djerdap Gorge or light airplane flight over Danube and Eastern Serbia.
