Tuesday 17th March: Hello Belgrade.

 Set sail late last night and arrived in Belgrade capital of Serbia in the early hours of the morning.

So breakfast then on a bus for a tour of the city.






The orthodox church "Church of Saint Sava" was a real highlight 






Next stop is the fortress overlooking Belgrade.

The Belgrade Fortress, situated at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, is a 2,000-year-old historic monument and the heart of the city, surrounded by the scenic Kalemegdan Park. It acts as an open-air museum featuring Roman, Byzantine, Serbian, Ottoman, and Austrian layers, featuring iconic sites like The Victor monument and the Clock Tower. 












So let's see where the tourist shop.

The pedestrian walk Knez Mihailova Street













We return to the boat.

Apparently we are the first boat to dock here for this year's tourist season. 

The first boat always gets a traditional welcome.
