An amazing journey around just two of the Balkans with a chance to discover their amazing cultural and political history. Needless to say, the landscapes are incredible and vary massively as you cross the country. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to learnt as much as they can about this spectacular region in a relatively short amount of time.
