Classic, Premium or VIP Exclusive: which tier is right for your group
An honest comparison of the three tiers, with the cases where the cheapest option is the better one.
Every tour we run comes in three tiers: Classic, Premium and VIP Exclusive. The guides are the same people in all three. What changes is who else is on the tour, how long it lasts, how you move between stops and what is included. This is how to choose, including the cases where the cheapest option is the better one.
Classic: a small group on foot
- Up to 12 guests, shared with other travellers.
- Three and a half to four hours, on foot.
- Priced per person.
Classic covers the essential route of each city at a walking pace. It suits solo travellers, couples and anyone who likes meeting other people on a trip. Groups stay small enough that everyone hears the guide and questions do not wait until the end.
Choose Classic if you are fine walking a few kilometres, you want the core of the city in half a day, and you would rather spend the rest of the day on your own.
Premium: private, with a meal and transfers
- Private to your party, up to 8 guests.
- About six hours, with a private car between stops.
- A reserved meal and entry tickets included.
- Priced per person.
Premium is the same guide working only for you. The route is fixed, but the pace is yours: stay longer where you are interested, skip what you are not. The car means less walking and more ground covered, which is why Premium tours reach places a walking tour cannot, like Zemun's Gardoš hill or the Fruška Gora wineries.
Choose Premium if you are a family or a group of friends, someone in the group does not want to walk far, or you want one long, well-organised day with lunch sorted.
VIP Exclusive: a full day shaped around you
- Fully private, priced per party (up to 6 guests).
- A full day with a senior guide, car and, where the route allows, a boat.
- The plan is agreed with you before the day.
VIP Exclusive starts from a set route and is adjusted to your interests before you arrive: more architecture or more food, an earlier start or a late dinner. Because it is priced per party rather than per person, it can cost less per head than Premium for a group of five or six.
Choose VIP if it is a special occasion, you have one day in the city and want to use all of it, or your group is large enough that the per-party price makes sense.
When the cheapest option is the better one
- You like to explore alone afterwards. Classic gives you orientation and leaves the afternoon free.
- You are travelling alone. Private tours are priced for groups; Classic is far better value for one person, and you get company.
- You are staying several days. Two Classic tours in two cities often give a better trip than one long private day.
- You plan to eat on your own terms. Premium includes a set meal; if you would rather choose the restaurant yourself, Classic plus a dinner recommendation from your guide may suit you more.
A quick comparison for two people
In Belgrade, two guests pay €90 for Classic and €240 for Premium. For six guests, Premium is €720 and VIP is €390 for the whole party. Prices are listed on each tour page, with free cancellation up to 48 hours before the start.
