Before You Go
Essential Travel Tips
Learn a few basic Serbian phrases like 'Zdravo' (Hello), 'Hvala' (Thank you), and 'Molim' (Please/You're welcome) – locals appreciate the effort.
Cash is king in many smaller establishments and markets, so always carry some Serbian Dinars (RSD).
Tipping is customary in restaurants and cafes (around 10-15%), but generally not expected for bar staff or cloakroom attendants unless there's a communal box.
Public transportation in Belgrade is extensive; consider buying a 'BusPlus' card for easier travel. For intercity trips, buses are a reliable option.
Serbians are known for their hospitality and generosity; don't be surprised if you're offered food or drink, and it's polite to accept.

Local Insights & Tips
Serbian culture values hospitality and personal connection. Public displays of affection, such as holding hands or kissing, are common and accepted among couples. Chivalry is still appreciated, with men often opening doors or paying for meals. Food plays a central role in social gatherings and family life; expect generous portions and a focus on fresh, hearty ingredients. Engaging in light conversation is welcome, but it's generally best to avoid sensitive political topics with new acquaintances.
