We ranked these tours on four things, in this order: how much time you spend at the sights rather than on the motorway, the quality of guiding as reported by reviewers, value for money, and how well the route shows what makes Fruška Gora different — monasteries, wine and forest, not just a city walk.
Ratings and review counts come from GetYourGuide’s live feed (checked October 2026). Several good products are new and have few or no reviews; we include them where the route is strong and say so plainly.
- Best overall
From Belgrade: Novi Sad & Sremski Karlovci Full-Day Tour
With more than 1,300 reviews this is the proven choice: Sremski Karlovci with a bermet tasting, Petrovaradin Fortress and Novi Sad, at a sensible pace and a fair price. It does not go deep into the hills — but for a first visit it is the day that most reliably delivers.

- Best for the national park
From Belgrade: Novi Sad & Fruška Gora + Wine Tasting
The one mainstream day trip that drives up into Fruška Gora itself before Karlovci and Novi Sad, with a fuller wine tasting. An hour longer and a little dearer; reviewers consistently say it was worth it.
Anyone who wants the mountain itself, not just the towns

- Best with a monastery
From Belgrade: Novi Sad, Fruška Gora, Winery & Krušedol Monastery

How to choose
- One day, first visit: take the bestseller or its twin. You will see Karlovci, taste bermet and stand on the fortress.
- You care about monasteries: choose the Krušedol-and-winery day from Belgrade, or base yourself in Novi Sad or Vrdnik and take a dedicated circuit.
- You prefer nature: the national-park day is the only group tour that spends real time in the hills. For hiking, go independently — see our travel guide.
- Family or group of four: price a private tour; per-group rates often beat four individual tickets.
Staying longer? Read where to stay and plan a second day around the wine route or the western monasteries.
