About us
“Belgrade Alternative Guide” represents a group of students from Belgrade who came together around the idea of showing their capital city to visitors in a manner different than that of tourist agencies. The only similarity we have to the agencies is that through us you can arrange accommodations if you happen to be visiting our city as a backpacker, or if you simply don’t have accommodations. Still, the difference lies in that we will undoubtedly find the least expensive hostel at that moment in downtown Belgrade.
Our purpose is for our guests to familiarize themselves with the way of life in our city. You will have the opportunity to get to know more about our young people, their friends and their friend’s friends, food, drinks, our habits, problems and our entertainment. The time you spend in Belgrade, you will spend living as a real Belgrader. Parties, get-togethers, debates, exhibits, and if it so happens that one of us is going to a house party while you’re visiting – you’re coming along!!! Of course, before all that you are welcome guests for dinner at grandma Mara’s, who’s cooking has no equal.
We all know how visits to relatives living abroad turn out. By the end, everything boils down to monuments, important buildings, mansions and shopping. “Belgrade Alternative Guide” offers you something completely different and much more exciting. We’ll take you to places that even most Belgraders aren’t familiar with, and most importantly we want to find out what YOU want to see, feel and experience weather those be underground clubs and other places worth going out to or interesting people and high quality cultural and alternative content. If you’re interested, you can spend a day at one of the university faculties to see how Belgrade’s students live.
You’ll be able to visit any of the faculties of the University of Belgrade and of the University of Arts. And as far as academic pursuits are concerned, through us you can get into contact with people from a large number of diverse organizations from the NGO sector, with whom you can share experience and knowledge about your field of study. Through your contact with us, prior to your arrival, you will have the chance to tell us which activities you would personally like to pursue or if you’d like, you could choose from a list of events and activities happening in Belgrade during your stay.
In case you don’t know much about our country and you happen to enjoy surprises, you’ll get a little bit of everything. Of course, you can opt to visit another part of Serbia as well, but you will have to let us know of this wish in advance so that it would be easier for us to make arrangements.
We’re sure that you will have a great time with us, and the profiles of all those involved can be found on this website!!! See you soon!
