- How expensive is Belgrade, Serbia? In todays video we will be visiting an outdoor market in Belgrade. There are plenty of outdoor markets throughout the city, but the one we will be visiting is located in the Dorcol neighborhood. I will take you with me as I shop for some of the important things that I need for my week and I will show you exactly how much you can buy for just 10 USD. We will pick ourselves up some fruits, veggies, toiletries, and some Serbian honey. I hope you enjoy this beautiful market tour in Belgrade, Serbia.

I read this as how beautiful it is to see a person who always dies 😐
What a cool city! Anyone who will be there for new year? We arrive the 31 and stay 13 days. Cheers !!
Have a great time! Visit Belgrade and Novi Sad!
Don't expect a club party for New Years' because there's a covid limitation for public gathering... :(
If you need a guide hmu :)
Hello from Florida I'm glad your enjoying Serbia .
Hey! Thank you so much! I hope all is well! 🙏🏻
In Serbia, every town has its outdoor market where you can find everything you need, food, cosmetics, clothes...so that you don't have to go to super markets basically
That's amazing! I want to visit a lot more markets!
@@Travelwithchris Man in Novi Sad u have on weekend NAJLON PIJACA just google it
@@matrix993 there you can find anything you need and more :)
I’m glad you are enjoying our country, as you can see it’s not that bad as western media wants to present us hahaha, welcome to Serbia broo ❤️
I love it here bro! Media is bullshit.... everywhere lol
"I think he says that he makes a better honey"
Klasičan Balkanski duh!
Classical Balkan spirit!
ahahah so funny!
It's like you are born in Serbia. You get us so well 😁🤷♀️
ahaha thank you!
I really really looove how you look at everything as a positive thing and never get like annoyed by little things like when you step in poop or something idk (at least it seems you're like that in ur videos) and i am just amazed by how you are litteraly always smiling and being happy, i really admire you! I also enjoy ur videos so much, they are really funny to me and they lift up my mood i guess because u try to talk sebiran and it sounds weird to me (no offence of course) and i love seeing people from different countries enjoying Serbia, i'm really glad you like it ❤️❤️❤️
Ummm I think that lady actually gave you a few apples more than a kilo, that's why she said 50. usually, it would be 40 or 45 din, but the weight was over the kilogram so she said I will just put it to be 50 din since it is easier to trade that way :D That was the point with apples. Non important information, but I just felt like I need to share that :)
ahaha so nice! No worries, I love hearing these things! Thanks for watching!
The old system of trading lol. That's why the penny does not really exist in Serbia lol.
@@frostflower5555 And the best system 😃
Things good to know.
When you go shopping at any outdoor market in Serbia it is a custom to left some small tip, like 5-10-20 dinars.
For example, if your bill is like 230 or 240 and you give em 250 it is nice (not a must) not to wait for exchage, just say it ok. Or your bill is 210,and you have 220, just say it ok.
It is not a must, you do not have to if you do not want, nobody says anything but with just 10 or 20 dinars you will show respect to those people who are outside at cold/hot all day who selling their produces. Especially if you are regular, come back, customer. With that gesture you will build realtion with sellers, they will remember you and probably will give you little more next time or give you daily fresh fruit, meat, vegetables etc.
With that small tips you build up relationship with them. And that is always good.
That's very good to know! Thank you so much!

The charisma, kindness and happiness of the people is precious, without a doubt it is very magical to see people so happy and kind in these times, clearly the jewel of Serbia is its people. I hope be there in january or then ext season of June... Greetings from Chile!
Thank you for watching!
Wow! The prices are crazy cheaper! It's good to visit Serbia soon.
Yes! Definitely bro!
Yes!! Nice video. Watch this song in spanish filmed in Serbia. Really nice!! m.facebook.com/watch/?v=2786725191380794&_rdr
For wealthy westerners they are for sure! But keep in mind that most serbians work hard for 300-400 euros per month! Whether prices still look cheap?
How nice to see that you are enjoying our small beautiful country. Btw fun fact the official name of the Serbian outdoor market is "Pijaca" :)
Keep up the good work, your videos are enjoyable and amazing :D
Thank you so much! So glad you are enjoying the videos!
I love buying fresh produce and fruits in the market. You cannot go wrong with that!
I am very glad to see people coming to us, especially from such large countries. Most do not know about the existence of our country, or they mix it with Syria and Russia. I would also add that I am sorry because many people do not know English, that is the only reason why they do not speak, in this case with you, otherwise they would have an even better sense of our hospitality.
You are always welcome with us. Enjoy.
Thank you so much for the support! ❤️
I am digging the outdoor shopping, and the prices are amazing
Yes!!! I'm addicted to outdoor markets! Always so amazing! Hope all is well! ☺️
At 2:50 above the kinder surprise eggs there seems to be a homemade strudel with poppy seeds (you can see 5 of them with black thing in the middle). You definitely want to try that. Just make sure your teeth are clean before going in public since poppy tends to stick to them and it looks awkward when you realize you walked around the city with black teeth for a few hours.
Also, at the stand where you bought the apples, there was homemade ajvar and ren. Ajvar you probably already tried in restaurants, if not, you should definitely buy it. It is a spread made from grilled red peppers. You can usually get blagi (mild) and ljuti (hot). Ren is a spread/dip made from horseradish, and tastes similar to wasabi, but it's white. It's not for everyone but if you like wasabi taste, you can maybe buy a small package of ren.
Nice video bro, glad you experienced that and for support of local farmers.
It was such a nice experience! i've been back a few times since! Thanks for the support bro!
I’m glad you are enjoying our country👏😊❤️
Thank you Nikolina!
LOVE the outdoor market videos. Excellent walk through experience. Now I have a tear in my eye, must travel to Beograd. :)
So glad you enjoyed it!
Dude! Fellow American brother. I've been hanging in Serbia during Corona times as well. Been in and out of the country since October. I'm in Uzice currently...
My hometown lol im from sevojno
You are living the life!
That looks like a great market a lot of fresh produce and of course paper towel haha glad to see the toilet paper isn’t sold out there
Plenty of TP out here bro! 🤣🤣
Hahah I love our open markets (pijaca) vibe, everybody friendly, cheerful, wants to sell their stuff and of course best organic food
Yes!!! I couldn't agree more! Such a vibe!
0 dislikes. RESPECT! :D
thanks brotha! ❤️

@@RunnerGameZYTXD well u wrong, it was month ago.
Super ti klip! ✌️😀👍
You need to do. A honey vs honey stall war video 🤣
Advice: it is acceptable, normal and recommendable on Serbian markets for you to pick fruit on your own piece of fruits. Most of them wont screw you up purposely of course, but will not spend too much time in picking best ones. There is some situations when they tell you you cant pick on your own, for example the plums, because touching leave it with fingerprints and some people dont want to buy it any more.
Thank you so much for that! I had no idea!
I was working at outdoor market for two years,selling apples just in city Novi Sad...btw.Joke is awesome but it's kind of opposite in reality.We got 300 but need 700 per motnth.And there's the fact that these prices are way high for us here to get through the month with bills and essential groceries and stuff,no eny luxury included.And its hard to put two ends together for the most of ppl
Yes I completely agree. I hope things change here soon! A lot of my friends tell me that same thing. It's incredible how many people I've met here that have college degrees and make 300 euro a month.....
@@Travelwithchris I am a payroll specialist. You have situation:
Over 70% of salaries are minimal (legal) net salary RSD 30.367,04(EUR260);
25% of the employees averages net salary around 80.000 (EUR 680);
Less than 5% are above the Highest monthly contribution base which is RSD 368.590 (EUR 3.150). I see factories where workers have 260EUR a month, and their bosses from 7.000 to 10.000 EUR a month, plus bonuses, benefits etc. Just One of them earns like 40 workers. Why?
@@Travelwithchris its a bit weird (guess it can wary), my family lives in the middle of belgrade, near the Slavia square and my mom works in grocery store with only highschool degree and she makes like 420 euro a month. My father also works with only highschool in administration and makes about the same (maybe a bit more with bonuses) and its enough for decent life of 2 adults and 2 children. So, idk, there had been a lot of goverment help during the crisis of covid and the economy is pretty stable here, if you were to compare it to the rest of the world (people werent losing their jobs)
Bog cuva Nadine ljudi sirom planetu 👏🇷🇸🇷🇸🎄👀👀🙏🙏🙏Amen
Chris our American-Serbian legend! 😄
Ahahah thank you 🙏🏻
Love your travel videos 😍😍😍your editing is amazing i will learn to improve mine
Thank you so much! Keep working hard!
Ur vlogs are amazing🤩
Thank you so much!
7:25 He was saying Novak Djokovic, (if you know who that was). If you're from LA, you probably know of a former Laker player that is from Serbia. (Vlade Divac)
ahhh I didn't understand at the moment! I'll definitely be back! thank you!
Great video Chris.
Thank you so much!

I will definitely check that out! Thank you!
Love the green market and yes, the best price.
Yes! 🙌🏻❤️
I'll be tuning in☘✌.
Yes 🙌🏻🙏🏻
What do you do for a living here in Serbia? I really like your videos and I'm glad you're enjoying your time here ❤
I'm making these travel videos for you guys!
You should try ćevapi ( Sarajevo style or horse meat one) at "Skočić" (butcher & grill) just behind the taxi station, 20m from main entrance (2:13). "Svilaja" is also good. Prices are cc 9USD per kg of grilled meat.
Thank you so much! I will definitely get my hands on some of that!
You should go to the flea market bro! You'd love it! 😊
Definitely have that on my plans! Coming soon! 😊
@@Travelwithchris on saturday /sunday mornings Novi Sad flee market (Najlon/nylon) is a must
You are best I am from Serbia
Thank you so much Milos!
If you still are in serbia you should go to the marker in mirjevo, i grew up there but moved to Sweden when i was 8
I will check that out for sure one day!
I won't be able to stay during premiere but i reckon its a great video in Belgrade it's more expensive and exchange rates are low but ok 👌
No worries Andre! Hope you enjoy the video once you get some time! Have a great day!
Another great video, thank you.
It will be great to tell us how much things on market cost, like tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, potatoes, etc.... we are vegan and we are super interested to know prices.
We totally don't mind if you share prices of meats, eggs, cheese too.
We sure enjoyed your video.
Basically prices vary from 50 cents to up 2 bucks per kilo depending on if it is a season for a fruit/vegetable or nope. Eggs are like 15-20 cents per egg. As for the meats expect prices 6 bucks and more per kilo depending ofc on which kind of meat. As for the cheese, prices are usually 5 bucks and more. And overall it varies from seller to seller.
But if you are interested into more precise prices, you can check out websites of bigger supermarkets here cuz you can order from them directly, like maxi rs.
I was just thinking about that , even tho he didn't cover vegetables in this video, vegetables are much cheaper than here in Canada /Calgary to be precise. I used to leave on the farm in Western Serbia and we would grow bell peppers , potatoes, tomatoes, onions, etc... and sell them on the flea market. In cities prices are higher than country side but i would say it's cheaper in Serbia at least 3x , if you go to country side 5x easily, especially when vegetables are in the season. On the safe side most of it is non GMO and grown by family farms.
Thanks so much Maestro! I will definitely film one of those!
@@Travelwithchris you are welcome, I do know prices in BG, still 99% of my family and friends living there, I was just suggesting that for people who planing to visit Belgrade.
Thank you.
Nice Chris. Next time, try to order and ask in Serbian. Greetings from Belgrade.
Definitely will! Thank you!
that paper guy kind a looks like "Peter O'Toole" at least to me xD
ahaha never seen him before! 🤣
Will you ever come to novi pazar
I definitely want to check it out!!
@@Travelwithchris just to know here in novi pazar we are famous about best jeans and cevapi
Cool video! :) And that joke, so true lol, you know it by now :):):)
Ahahaha thanks Kiki 🙌🏻
Great channel. Bravo

So Chris, when are you going to give us your estimate for monthly budget with breakdown, one that allows *comfortable* life there?
When Chris? :D
ahhhh! I'll do that soon! Good idea!
Pucam od ponosa Srbijo 😊❤️👍🎄👀👀👏👏👏💋💋💋
When u buy something like fruits dont give cashier to put fruit, ask for bag and choose your own fruit thats the best
okay thank you for that tip!
That's not just a market.... that's family!
yes! ❤️
Damn honey and rakya haha hope I’m spelling it right
🤣🤣🤣 Rakija! Close though! You need to try some bro!
For serbians is expensive, for rich tourists is cheap.It is that simple.

Hahaha excellent joke at the beginning :)

Hi- Cao
Can i get this?- Da li mogu da dobijem ovo?
I hope i help! :)
Thank you so much!
@@Travelwithchris No problem 😀
More expensive than Germany ... I am always surprised...
with this fruit and honey you will stay healthy 100% bro.💪💪💪
Yes Doni! Hope you’re having a great week!
Chris can u tell me how much whould the stuff you buy cost in US ?
jedino je cena voća osetno veća u SAD, ostalo neznatno skuplje. Jabuke su 3-5usd, Indijski orah je oko 60usd za kilo, cene narandži su slične, jer je cela FLorida pod narandžama i imaju ogromnu domaću proizvodnju.
I would say that the honey would've been about 10 USD, the apples about 5 USD, Oranges 5 USD, Paper towels 5 USD and the nuts about the same! Farmers markets are generally more expensive and anything with an "organic" logo is easily double ahahah
apples that you bought were organic
@@colinafobe2152 sigurno da jesu

ahahaha! I hope all is well! Thanks for watching!
Pozdrav iz Bosne.
He said that his honey is cheaper.😄
Ahhhh 😂😂 thank you Stevan! Yo that honey was sooo good!
@@Travelwithchris Believe me outside of Belgrade there is even better honeys.😉
You should try guarana
I just tried it yesterday!!!
Yeeeees!
Its a really hard For you to talk with Older People, they really dont know much about english language, but moves and face expressions is enought to comunicate 😂
yes!! I love making a way to conversate! Everyone starts to understand each other after a. while! All good vibes!
@@Travelwithchris buy some stuff like suvo meso, pršuta, ajvar, kajmak, turšija.. You Can find these in that type of places, i mean this markets. This is supplies For real serbian breakfast, you would love it :)
You can get the towels for 50din XD
ahahah dang!
Is there any jewellery market also ?
I'm sure, I just don't buy Jewelry or even know what to look for! :)
You mostly bought organic food for that money .
I think for that quality and money is hard to find better
in any country .
Yes I totally agree! Thanks for watching!
👍
Thanks as always Jimmy!
Serbia and generally Balkan countries have same mentality like Greece and Italy for example, slow and easy life.
great video but there is one thing that happens whit all tourists who come to serbia (exception to individuals) no one wants to learn the basic words for communication out of respect for us 👍 👌💜💜
Now just add 30% to everything you've listed and you got the 2022 update.
💞💞💞
Thank you Ivana ❤️
Come to Novi Sad :D
I just left there :)
@@Travelwithchris will you ever come again :D
That is a real joke! 😃 We work a lot but salaries are miserable
Yes, 50 = pedeset, 100 = sto dinara
Yes!! This hank you for watching!
In Serbia all people wants to be on camera😁
ahahah so funny! I love it! ❤️

Love it so much! Need to go back!
In serbia we call it a '' Pijaca ''!
Дабоме
9:10 that woman sold you for 210 instead of 190 ;-; but then again that's what happens when you visit a place like this instead of the market with fixed prices :/
edit: the woman said 50 dinars instead of 30 on the sign for the apples.
crazy! I didn't even notice!
Nope she said 40 and the price is 40, then she added few more and she said 50 to be correct.
@@rebellion-starwars nope, he bought 2 different fruits
One costs 90rsd a kg and the other 100rsd a kg
Meaning she should've charged the guy 190rsd and not 210 but then it's only 30rsd less than 15cents

Joke goes something like this:
Serbian guy meets and asks an American:
-How much do you earn?
3000$ a month
-How much do you spend on living expenses?
1000$ a month
-So what do you do with the rest?
You don't ask that around here. How much do you earn?
-300$ a month.
How much do you spend?
-1000$
How?
-You don't ask that around here.
We don’t really know that!😂😂🥺
Haha Good joke, but basically they get money from their parents or grandparents, who sacrifice their lifestyle so their overgrown kids don't lack anything that they didn't have!
ahahah thank you for watching!
Ok video 🙋🌁🇷🇸
Thank you so much!
one thing just to know dont ever but dont ever think about buying sneekers in serbia shoes that are 100 dollars are 200 oh yeah forgot to say wear a mask for your own good also the best honey is in greece
Yes sooo expensive! Thanks for watching!
11:00 Kilo of apples was 40dinar, but she sell you for 50dinar, what a rude move...
She added few more over the top to make it 50, you ain't right...
I are here 😏
Ohh... I guess I'm late 😔😔
Thanks so much!!
Are you living in serbia now? If so, why?
Nope just here for three more weeks now :(
