| Day | Destination | Description |
| Day 1 | Budapest | Built on the banks of the Danube River, this beautiful city is best seen from the water. Admire the city's architecture, and take in the lights from the iconic Chain Bridge. |
| Days 2-3 | Novi Sad | Home to a rich history, elegant architecture and scenic natural beauty, Novi Sad's sights have universal appeal. Originally established by the Romans, the hilltop Petrovaradin Fortress offers beautiful views of the city. |
| Days 4-5 | Belgrade | One of Europe's oldest cities, Belgrade is a curious mix of modernity and tradition. Observe how the Orthodox churches jostle for space with up-and-coming nightclubs in this vibrant city. |
| Days 6-8 | Sarajevo and Mostar | Travel through serene countryside to the capital of Bosnia-Herzegovina. The streets of this rejuvenated city invite a stroll. A day trip to Mostar affords an opportunity to see the famous town and bridge, both reduced to rubble during the Yugoslav wars. Since rebuilt, the town is an important symbol of the new Balkans. |
| Day 9 | Ostrog Monastery | Take the pilgrims' path to the stunning Ostrog Monastery and stay the night in a simple konak. |
| Days 10-11 | Budva | The Montenegrin Miami is known for its pristine coastline and vibrant nightlife. Hit the beach this afternoon to soak up some sun. |
| Day 12 | Kotor | Hop aboard a boat bound for World Heritage-listed Kotor, a perfectly-preserved medieval town with charming crooked alleyways to explore. |
| Days 13-14 | Dubrovnik | Walk along the city walls for panoramas of the Adriatic Sea, or climb Mt Srd for an aerial perspective. |
