Me and my 6 friends from Denmark had a lovely time with Brana. Even though we were a large group, Brana managed to engage with all of us collectively as well as individually. The tour was not rushed, neither was it your standard historical tour. Rather, it felt more like walking around town with a very knowledgeable friend, which was exactly what we wanted. On top of that, Brana was super helpful with recommendations, and with validating our plans for the rest of our stay. We would 100% recommend you take a tour with Brana, you won’t regret it.Thank you Brana!

Brana was great. She gave us a solid orientation to the city while communicating, clear-eyed, how much she loved her hometown. She answered all our questions with humor and facts. She knew the delights of both the old city and emerging cultural trends. Afterwards, she even sent a list of the shops and restaurants that interested us , but we knew we would never remember. Our little group would recommend Brana with two thumbs up. Great guide!

We had a wonderful tour with Brana. We had the chance to see many hidden spots in Belgrade that we would not have discovered on our own. Brana's English is excellent, and she has a good grasp of the information about the places we visited. After the tour, she also suggested alternatives for us to explore on our own. Thanks to Brana, we discovered a special and naturally produced Belgrade chocolate called BioGrad, incredibly delicious and without added sugar – we thank her specially for that as well. Thanks Eda Brana Fun Club 🥳⭐️

It was our first time in Belgrade, so thought it would be good to get some local knowledge. We asked our guide Brana to meet us at our hotel, and from the first minute, it was like chatting to an old friend. My wife and I spent the afternoon walking around the city with Brana, and she took us to many places that we would never have found as tourists. She is very knowledgeable, her English is excellent, and she was able to tell us about the history and architecture of the city, but also more modern subjects like urban art. We had stops for local snacks, food and drink, all at her favourite haunts. We had such a lovely afternoon, and getting the basic geography of the city, plus recommendations from Brana, set us up for a great couple of days. If you ever need a local guide in Belgrade, Brana is a superstar.A fantastic guide for Belgrade.

Brana was such a great and helpful guide. We had a nice walk through the city. We saw so many different areas in Belgrade and wherever we went, she knew something to tell us about. It was the three of us and it was as if she was our fourth local friend to show us her city. This was a great way to meet Belgrade and see the gems of the city. Afterwards she texted us more tips and if we needed more, we could text her. That was so kind of her. Thanx so much Brana! Ps: we hope you liked the Dutch cookies :-)What a great way to get to know the city!

Had a great tour of local sights of Belgrade with Ivana. Initially there were some misunderstandings because i cancelled the tour and later rebooked. But it was all sorted out and it was all good at the end. She even called a taxi for me which i really appreciated as its hard to find a taxi here sometimes due to crowds - peak season. I highly recommend Ivana if you visit Belgrade and would like to take a tour of local sights. Great tour of Belgrade with Ivana

No es Belgrado una ciudad que suela aparecer en el visor de los destinos europeos pero debería estarlo. Brana supo llevarnos por sus principales calles y explicarnos un poquito de toda la historia y curiosidades de la ciudad y todo ello con un español muy bien hablado. Recomendable al 100% el tour con Brana.Agradable descubrimiento

Belgrade was the final stop of our journey in Serbia and it was really good to have Brana guiding us through this intriguing authentic city. We stayed in Belgrade for two full days. Prior to the trip we had already come to the conclusion that it would be best to arrange a private tour for our very first day as we assumed that a guide could also provide us some additional guidance on what to do and what to see after the tour and on our second day in Belgrade. We had decided to contact Brana as we expected her, based on her profile, to be the best guide to tell us more about the history of Belgrade and its culture. It turned out that choosing Brana was exactly the right thing that we could have done as Brana told us everything about the city, its history and its population. She also took us to very interesting places we normally would not have noticed or visited. Right from the start we got to know Brana as being super friendly. With her knowledge and personal stories she really managed to add an extra dimension to the tour. Next to this it should be said that Brana has a pleasant way of communication and she really puts in an effort in making sure that people make the most of their time in Belgrade. For example, we really appreciated the information she provided us after the tour regarding certain particular places that we were interested in. That information gave us direction and saved us quite some time. This is why we can say that the tour with Brana was a perfect start of our stay in Belgrade. We would recommend anyone to take a tour with Brana when visiting Belgrade. Perfect start of our stay

We did have two tours with Ivana. No matter if you were looking for a historical or mountainous trip, religious, or fun, Ivana is the best guide for all trips. If you want to have the real test of the Balkans, including wine tasting, restaurants, monasteries, churches, museums, and mountain hiking, Ivana is the right choice. Very knowledgeable, beautiful young lady, with many different skills. On the first trip, we wanted to have a religious trip through the Orthodox Monasteries of Serbia and Mount Negro, in addition to wine tasting and Serbian barbecue. We really enjoyed our trip. Ivana has many connections with the nuns and monks, so we can have nice spiritual time talking to them. We enjoyed the mountains and that was our main reason for returning on the second trip. One friend of our group loved the Byzantine Serbian Icons in St. Sava Cathedral, she asked Ivana if she can arrange private lessons for Byzantine Icons Painting. On the same day, it was arranged through Ivana's connections with a nice Byzantine Art Professor. Our friend extended her stay for another five days to complete the course and returning back this coming December. This is the secret about Ivana "Connections and Connections". Four months later, we returned for the second time, but this time was more hiking and cultural trip. We really enjoyed Serbia with Ivana, and we feel we are home, and we still have many things to enjoy and to return for. The country is great and Ivana makes it the greatest trip to enjoy. The Country is secure, beautiful with spectacular scenes, nice people, and great food. I won't spend much time telling about the Serbian History and the Orthodox Monasteries, but visiting Serbia with Ivana makes tasting the history is different. We don't think we were able to make or enjoy it without Ivana. Thank you, Ivana, Looking forward to coming more and more.Amazing guide who knows everyone in Belgrade! Great Connections

It was a great to meet Brana, who is an extraordinarily capable individual. My partner & I were not confident navigating Belgrade on our own and she transformed what I feared what would be a challenging day into a delightful and interesting tour. We were only in the city for the day and wanted to make the most of our time there. We needed a flexible schedule that worked around us and meant Brana had to deal with a few "Logistical Curveballs" she handled these difficulties with effortless grace. I want to mention price, because initially I did wonder how things were going to turn out and if it would be "worth it." I am pleased to say it definitely represented value and I shouldn't have worried. We were in excellent hands and had a wonderful experience. Although in hindsight we should have spent more time in Belgrade! I hope we can get back soon to see more. A huge thanks again to Brana for her help, patience and for such an insightful and informative experience. L & PFun, Helpful, Conscientious & Professional

Tour was ok but no more. Lots of walking to see a few sights. Most of what we learnt was us asking questions rather than being told about things. Was supposed to have a drink and some food included. We got a bottle of water from a shop during the tour and no food. Tour ended 20 minutes early for some reason. Ivana did help out booking a meal for us and gave a few web links to a few places, but overall not the best tour we have had, especially at the price we paid. Maybe Withlocals are starting to charge too much. Used to get good value for money, not anymore.An ok tour

Brana showed us many nice places where we enjoyed good street food. Her knowledge about history and culture for me was as important as to get to know places where we can eat and drink during our longer stay in Belgrade. In this 3h we made a walk of nearly to 10 km, because we enjoyed it to see a lot of the core city. For me it was important to learn about the city of Belgrade with somebody who has a profound knowledge. Brana was for me and my brother the right person to organize this individual tour. Thank you! Food, Culture and History.

Four of us visited Belgrade in June and we had opted for the private tour of Belgrade. The most credit for making this an extraordinary tour must go to our guide – Соня Девиц (Sonja Devic). Her passion, her deep involvement and insight into the subject, along with her comfort with English language certainly made the tour far more fascinating. She was ever smiling, articulate, quick wit and interactive. She added another interesting facet to the day by introducing us to Cyrillic script! (That is of course how I learnt to write her name in Cyrillic) I certainly recommend the tour as a ‘must do’ and if you can, insist on being guided by her.Incredible time with Sonja
