Useful tips

Things to Know Before Visiting Belgrade

All the road signs in the city are written in the Cyrillic alphabet. Therefore, it is in your interest to start your tour by reviewing the city map in advance or using appropriate smart phone apps to find your way.  You may also find it useful to use translation apps as they might be able to translate from photos, helping you understand street signs.

Heads up! Serbia is not in the EU, so additional charges may apply for your mobile data (roaming).

What to pack for your trip?

In Belgrade, the average high-temperature in April rises from a cool 12.5°C (54.5°F) in March to an enjoyable 18.6°C (65.5°F).

In April, in Belgrade, the average low-temperature is 8.3°C (46.9°F).

Consider bringing your rain jacket, as you can expect at least some rain many days, but you’ll find beautiful sunny days in between. Nights can be chilly, so extra layers are always a plus.

These are the options for airport transportation:

• Mini Bus line A1 – 30 minutes to the Slavija Square (from there public transport/ trolley bus line 22 to the hotel). Price: around 4 EUR
