  1. 3.5 hours Belgrade under your feet

    Meet your guide on Knez Mihailova street and walk up to Belgrade Fortress. Below ground you visit a selection of the fortress sites open on the day: the so-called Roman Well, the old gunpowder magazine with its Roman stones, and a Yugoslav Army bunker. Back in the old town, where access allows, your guide shows you one of the vaulted cellars (lagumi) of the old town, and you finish with a glass of wine in an underground cellar.

Why this day

Why you’ll love it

  • The so-called Roman Well, an 18th-century Austrian well sunk deep into the fortress rock
  • Roman stones and tombstones in the old gunpowder magazine
  • A Yugoslav Army bunker from the early 1950s
  • The vaulted cellars (lagumi) of the old town

Signature moments

Two thousand years in one hill

From Roman Singidunum to the 20th-century bunker, every layer of the fortress has left something underground.

Wine below the street

The tour ends in a vaulted cellar with a glass of Serbian wine and the guide's last story.

Before you choose

Is this day for you?

A good fit if

Curious travellers, families with older children and anyone who has seen Kalemegdan from above and wants the stories under it.

Maybe not if

Travellers uneasy in narrow, cool or dimly lit spaces, and visitors with limited mobility: there are steep steps.

Pace and effort

About three and a half hours on foot, with steps down into each site. Bring a light jacket: underground spaces stay cool all year.

Make it yours

Change anything

Combine with Yugoslav Belgrade (DX-10) for a full day · Add the Belgrade Fortress clock tower and the view over the rivers.
