Public transport

All the locations needed for the wedding celebration are easily accessible by foot, unless your hotel is far from the Hilton Hotel or the Temple of Saint Sava.

For longer distances, we recommend taking a taxi. There are applications that allow you to order vehicles, but you can also place the order by call or ask the hotel to do it for you.

Shortly before the wedding we will check the best options and list them here.

Knez Mihailova is Belgrade's main shopping street. It is characterised by shops, cafes, restaurants, bookstores and galleries.
