- Description
17-20 May, 2024 (4 days, 3 nights)iscover the wonderful sights of Mokra Gora and its surroundings with the Continental Classic Express.
Until the 1970s, hundreds of kilometers of narrow-gauge railway lines operated in the territory of the former Yugoslavia. An important element of this extensive system was the Kraljevo-Užice-Mokra Gora-Višegrad-Sarajevo line. One of the most impressive parts of the railway line crossing the mountains is the section crossing the Šargan pass above Mokra Gora, which overcomes the difference in level between Mokra Gora and Sargan Vitasi in a figure eight. This is where the current name of the light railway comes from: Šarganska osmica, i.e. the Šargan Eight.
The program is organized together with our program in Sarajevo. Guests of both tour travel on the same train between Budapest-Sarajevo-Budapest.
The maximum number of people on the trip: 45 people.

This bridge was the subject of Ivo Andric’s work, "Bridge on the Drina", for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
We will have lunch in Andricgrad. The idea of building the district can be linked to film director Emir Kusturica, who initiated its construction of memory of Ivo Andris. The district was built on the basis of what was described in the novel Bridge on the Drina and contains all the architectural styles of the former Yugoslavia.
