Planning a group trip to Serbia or the Balkans and need reliable private transport? Whether you are a tour operator, corporate travel manager, school group or independent travellers, the right vehicle and professional driver make all the difference between a smooth journey and unnecessary stress.

Magelan has been based in Novi Sad for more than 30 years as a licensed inbound tour operator and transport company. Over three decades we have built a strong reputation for reliability among international clients who value punctuality, clear communication and solid local knowledge.

Built for foreign tour operators and independent groups

Most of our clients come from abroad and need more than just a vehicle. They need a dependable local partner who understands:

  • Airport meeting points and flight delays
  • Flexible itineraries that often change during the trip
  • Multi-day routes across Serbia and neighbouring countries
  • English-speaking coordination and professional drivers
  • Clear, fixed quotations with no hidden costs

We regularly work with European, American and Asian tour operators who prefer one reliable contact in Serbia instead of dealing with several local providers.

Licensed international transport across the Balkans and Europe

Magelan holds an official licence for international non-scheduled passenger transport by road (licence number ЛПМВ-590/2020), issued by the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Serbia.

This licence allows us to operate private group transport not only within Serbia, but throughout the Balkans and across Europe. We can provide the same vehicle and driver for multi-country itineraries without changing operators at borders.

Cost advantage on longer tours For programmes lasting 10 days or more, hiring private transport from Serbia is often significantly more cost-effective than booking vehicles in neighbouring countries or Western Europe. Lower operating costs in Serbia, combined with our own fleet and experienced drivers, regularly deliver better value on longer Balkan or European routes.

Typical situations we handle

Airport & city transfers Private transfers between Belgrade Airport and Novi Sad, Belgrade hotels, or any destination in Vojvodina. Ideal for groups that prefer to avoid public transport or multiple taxis.

Day trips from Novi Sad or Belgrade Fruška Gora monasteries and wine cellars, Sremski Karlovci, Petrovaradin Fortress, or longer excursions to Đerdap and Golubac. One vehicle, one driver, your schedule.

Multi-Day Balkan & European itineraries Groups travelling through Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia or further into Europe often need consistent transport for several days. Whenever possible, we provide the same vehicle and driver for the entire journey.

Corporate and Incentive groups Companies organising meetings, team events or incentive trips in Serbia use our vehicles for daily shuttles, evening transfers and full-day programmes.

What makes the Experience different

  • Drivers experienced in working with international guests
  • Vehicles maintained to a standard expected by foreign clients
  • Option to combine transport with guides and full tour organisation (as a licensed DMC)
  • Responsive communication in English
  • Flexible solutions when plans change on the ground

We do not offer self-drive rental. Every vehicle comes with a professional driver.
