In this three-day road trip you'll get to explore the alternative heart of two famous European capitals: Zagreb and Belgrade.
The historic city of Zagreb has a bohemian edge to it that its fellow Croatian cities can't match. You'll get the chance to immerse yourself in Croatia's unique coffee culture, check out Zagreb's more esoteric sights and generally keep your feet firmly planted on the alternative side of things.
In Belgrade you'll explore the edgy Savamala district, where art galleries, hip bars and cultural centres are fighting off the threat of closure from a new waterfront development. You'll immerse yourself in the city's alternative spirit and visit the places that helped reinvigorate this once-neglected area of Belgrade.
