Arriving by train late at night in Belgrade
Hi there,
If I arrive late at night by train into Belgrade is it safe at night? Are the taxi's ok? Do they charge by the meter or is it negotiable subject to the tourist being ripped off?
If i then want to go out clubbing etc can you comment on the general safety of Belgrade nightlife and walking around the city at nighttime if Im alone?
many thanks

Accommodation in Dobra (Danube village)
I did the Danube cycling route two years ago, and I remember having eaten at an old couple's house in Dobra where they had also rooms. I had the address and telephone number in the Esterbauer Danube cycling guide, but I don't have the guide anymore. Does anyone have their phone?
Thank you.

Civil War sites; train to Poland
I am planning to be in Serbia about May 29 after a number of days in Croatia and Bosnia/Herzegovina visiting sites connected to the civil war of 1991-95, including Mostar, Sarajevo, Srebrenica, and Vukovar. I haven't (yet) identified similar sites in Serbia and welcome suggestions.
Subsequently, I am going to Krakow in Poland, I assume by train. I would greatly appreciate information on the details of this route, e.g. do all trains go through Budapest, how long is trip, etc, should I look for an overnight train, etc.

Accomodation, transport, ... for visit to Ovcar Kablar, Novi Pazar, ...
I'm studying a possible detour to Southern Serbia during a trip to Bosnia and Montenegro. i have guidebooks for those two countries but not for Serbia.
- Ovcar Kablar: is there cheap accomodation nearby which I can use as base ? In Cacak or Uzice ? Is there public transport to the gorges ?
- Which transport can I use to visit Studenica between Ovcar Kablar and Novi Pazar ?
- Is the detour to Novi Pazar worth it and is there budget accomodation in Novi Pazar ?
- Is there local transport in Novi Pazar to nearby towns in Montenegro (Rozace ...) ?

Belgrade - safety
Hello and I ask you to not misunderstand my question or turn this to a nationalistic discussion about politics.
I have booked my return flight this summer through Belgrade since it was most convenient and will have a overnight stay in Belgrade.
But I am a little bit worried about safety. I am Albanian from Kosovo and even though I have foreign citizenship, my passport says I was born in Pristina. So I wonder if I should be concerned about my safety. I have already booked hotel - 3/4 star hotel downtown.
I have earlier been to Belgrade but as part of a larger group and did not have any problem at all. I also liked the city very much. Now I am alone and am I a little bit more worried, especially how the hotel staff might react. I am not planing to go out during the evening.
