Cruising on the Danube with visits to Belgrade and Novi Sad are among the most popular tourist offers.

Lake Perućac and Vlasina lake are also among the largest artificial lakes in Serbia. The majority of natural lakes are found in Vojvodina, and Palić lake is the largest of them and most visited. Srebrno jezero (eng. Silver lake) and lake Ludaš also attract numerous visitors.
