Small Group: Hidden Balkan, 7 Countries

Fourteen days across the Balkans, moving from Belgrade through Bosnia and Herzegovina down to the Montenegrin coast, then on into Albania and North Macedonia. It is a lot of ground and a lot of countries, so expect a steady rhythm of new places rather than long stays.

Along the way you get a mix of cities, coastline and countryside — Sarajevo's old quarter, the beaches and ruins at Durrës, the still waters of Lake Ohrid — plus a handful of arranged local encounters like a gourmet stop in Zlatibor and a copper workshop in Mostar.

It suits travellers who want breadth over depth, with a guide handling logistics so you can focus on food, history and the changing scenery.

What you'll do

• Wander Belgrade's lively streets and nightlife district
• Try Sarajevo's burek and baklava in the old town
• Explore Durrës, where Roman ruins sit near sandy beaches
• Walk the shore of Lake Ohrid, one of Europe's oldest lakes
• Join a gourmet session in Zlatibor and a copper workshop in Mostar
• Take part in an Albanian agrotourism experience
