In the place where the Danube is the widest, there is Golubac Fortress. With their great size and unique shape, it was one of the most important strategical position trough entire Middle Age. It was the reason for numerous battles and deceptions, all in the fight for survival. Definitely one of the most important monuments of culture, as then as it now. So, definitely have to see it and feel it!

Driving downstream next to the river, we enter into the longest Gorge in Europe! Breaking trough the Carpathians, Danube makes the most dramatic place on the river. The name of the Gorge speaks for itself- Iron Gates. Danube was one of the most important traffic routes. Many conquerors, traders and nations have left numerous legends and monuments on the route and we can only see it from the river. Pleasant speedboat ride, we will enjoy breathtaking landscape, history and mystery of this place.

On our way back, we will make a quick stop. On the hill above the river is one of our favorite spots- amazing viewpoint from where we can see whole beauty of the gorge! This charming place brings peace and relax to our mind, that we all definitely need.

Our next stop is Lepenski Vir, the oldest urban settlement in Europe. As the river area is suitable for creation of settlements, this one is 8000 years old. The culture that lived here, left behind the remains of houses, sculptures, tools and many beliefs about this place. It was discovered by chance and preserved from oblivion.
