Private & tailor-made

Balkland is a tour operator and destination management company (DMC) for the Balkans. Tell us who is travelling, when and how you like to travel, and our team will shape the route, pace and practical details with you.

The routes listed below are examples. Every itinerary can be reshaped around your interests, your pace and your dates.

Three ways to travel privately

  • A tailored private package

    A complete private itinerary built around your interests and pace, with the route, accommodation, transfers and experiences planned together by our team.

  • Private touring transport

    A private vehicle and driver for the route you choose, while you book your own hotels. We help you plan realistic driving days and border crossings.

  • Fully escorted luxury planning

    A higher level of planning and on-trip support, including land extensions in the Balkans before or after a cruise you have booked yourself.

Balkland plans land travel within the Balkans. We do not sell international flights or cruises. Every option is subject to availability and confirmed in your written proposal.

Frequently Asked Questions

We help you prepare for your trip and ensure an effortless travel experience.

Yes. The routes on this page are examples to start the conversation. Tell us the places, experiences and pace you have in mind and we will shape a route around them, subject to availability and confirmed in your written proposal.
Yes. Share your preferred dates or travel month and how full or relaxed you would like each day to be, and we will plan around that. Final dates and timings are subject to availability and confirmed in your written proposal.
Yes. With private touring transport you choose and book your own hotels, and we plan the driving days around where you are staying. If you prefer us to arrange accommodation, a tailored private package covers that. Either way, what we arrange is subject to availability and confirmed in your written proposal.
Driving and guiding are separate roles, so we do not assume one person does both. Where a guide is included we will say so in your proposal. If you would like a guide for a city or part of the route, tell us when you enquire and we will confirm what is possible.
Tell us which language you would like when you enquire. Languages for planning, guiding and driving depend on who is available for your dates, so we confirm what is possible in your written proposal rather than promising a language in advance.
Yes, we can plan the land part of a trip before or after a cruise you have booked yourself, where we are able to support it. We do not sell cruises or international flights. Share your arrival and departure details and we will tell you what is possible, subject to availability and confirmed in your written proposal.
It depends on the option you choose. Your written proposal lists exactly what is included and what is not, for example accommodation, private transport, guiding and experiences. If you would like something added or removed, we can discuss it before you confirm.
After your enquiry we prepare a written proposal with the route, what is included and the price. If you decide to go ahead, the proposal explains the deposit and payment steps, and the cancellation terms are set out there and in our Terms & Conditions. Please ask us if anything is unclear before you confirm.
Hotel categories: star ratings can differ from country to country, and some towns have few top-category hotels, so we explain the 4-star and 5-star options for each stop and confirm hotels in your proposal, subject to availability. Vehicles and luggage: tell us how many people and bags are travelling and we will recommend a suitable vehicle type. Borders and daily travel: border crossings and mountain roads can add time, so we plan realistic driving days with rest stops.

Tailor-Made

Designed Around Your Dates, Pace & Interests

Tailor-made travel is the most personal way to explore the Balkans. Balkland crafts private tours with flexibility, comfort, and cultural depth—built for couples, families, and small groups who want a journey that fits their priorities. Your itinerary is shaped around realistic driving times, meaningful stops, and the right balance of guided experiences and free time, supported by professional drivers and trusted local experts.

Custom Balkan Itineraries, Seamlessly Delivered

Whether you want a country-focused escape or a multi-country overland journey, we design routes that make sense geographically and logistically. In Bosnia & Herzegovina, we can structure Sarajevo tours and Sarajevo day trips into a complete Bosnia itinerary featuring Mostar tours, Herzegovina tours, UNESCO Mostar, Konjic tour routes through the Neretva valley, and classic favourites like the Travnik and Jajce tour. Croatia tours can be customised around Dubrovnik tours, Split tours, a Dalmatian coast tour, and nature icons such as the Plitvice Lakes day trip—often combined into a Croatia and Bosnia itinerary or Croatia and Montenegro itinerary.

Montenegro tours can be tailored through Kotor tours, Bay of Kotor itinerary routes, Montenegro scenic drives, and national park extensions such as Durmitor National Park tour routes or Tara Canyon Montenegro viewpoints. North Macedonia tours can focus on Skopje tours, Old Bazaar Skopje heritage, and Ohrid tours within a Lake Ohrid itinerary, while Albania tours may include Tirana tours, Berat UNESCO, and a Gjirokastër itinerary—optionally paired with an Albanian Riviera itinerary for summer travel. Serbia tours add Belgrade tours, the Belgrade Fortress tour, Novi Sad tours, Danube river Serbia corridors, and western Serbia itinerary landscapes. For longer tailor-made journeys, Bulgaria tours can include Sofia tours, Plovdiv tours, Bulgaria UNESCO sites, and a Rila Monastery tour, while Romania tours can pair Bucharest tours with a Transylvania itinerary and Romania castles tour routes. Slovenia tours add refined alpine pacing with Ljubljana tours, Lake Bled tours, and a Postojna cave tour, often linked into a Slovenia and Croatia itinerary.

From 4–5★ hotel selection and restaurant recommendations to private guiding where it matters most, Tailor-Made tours are built to feel effortless—so you can focus on the experience, not the planning.
