Discover the treasures of Eastern Europe

This unique journey will take you from Bucharest to Budapest through a land that feels worlds away from the west of Europe. You’ll discover towns and cities that still look as they might have over a hundred years ago, from the eclectic Serbian city of Belgrade to the well-preserved Baroque town of Osijek in Croatia.
