Na obalama Dunava, na krajnjem istoku zemlje, pre više od 9.000 godina praistorijski ljudi stvorili su jednu od najstarijih kultura u Evropi – kulturu Lepenskog vira. Od tada do danas mnogo toga se promenilo, ali je harmonija života lokalnog stanovništva i prirode ostala nenarušena. Seoska domaćinstva ovog kraja izuzetno su raznovrsna. Neka se nalaze na samoj obali Dunava i pravi su raj za pecaroše i ljubitelje ribe. Neka se nalaze na obroncima planina i pružaju priliku za pešačenje, skijanje, planinarenje i osvajanje izazovnih visokih vrhova. Pojedina se nalaze u blizini banja i istorijskih znamenitosti. Ali sva pružaju mogućnost boravka u autentičnoj atmosferi srpskog sela, koja čini da se osećate preporođeno i spremno za nove izazove.
