Excursion to Novi Sad and Sremski Karlovci

On our way to Novi Sad, first stop will be at Sremski Karlovci, visiting vinery “Zivanovic” and it’s wine cellars from 18th century, where we expect tasting seven kinds of wine, three types of honey and two kinds of homemade brandy, all with canapés "Sremački fruštuk" to make the experience complete. 

Just 11 km from Novi Sad and 57 km from Belgrade, the quaint city of Sremski Karlovci has been the spiritual, cultural and educational center of Serbia for over 200 years. The city is accessible via car or the Romance (Romantika) Train originating in Belgrade.

The baroque style buildings surrounding the fountain in the town center are of immense importance to Serbian history and culture. With its two tall bell towers, the 1762 Gathering Church of St. Nicholas (Saborna crkva Sv. Nikole) is a masterpiece iconostas of Serbian baroque. The Patriarchy Palace, the residence of the Srem District Episcope, is considered to be Vojvodina’s most remarkable 19th century building.

Fruska Gora is proclaimed a National Park in 1960 in order to provide its permanent protection and to improve its natural resources and beauty. The area of active protection is 25.525 ha. Fruska Gora's valleys are covered with pastures and fertile fields, numerous vineyards and orchards which decorate its lower slopes while higher ground, above 300 meters, is covered with dense deciduous forests.

Rest of the day is planned for exploring Novi Sad, the incubator of innovation, modern, cultural, tourism, exhibition and congress center of the region, rich in tradition, the festival city of international importance.
