Transportation

From Airport

From the Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport you may reach the Institute of Physics Belgrade area by taxi. Distance from the airport is about 12km and taxi drive from the airport is about 20min. You can also take a public transportation bus 72 to reach city center (Zeleni Venac street). This bus departs every 30 minutes.

From Train and Bus Station

From Belgrade's Central Train Station and from Belgrade's Central Bus Station you may reach the Institute of Physics Belgrade area by taxi or by bus. Distance from the train/bus station is about 10km. Alternatively you can use a public transportation bus 83 to go to center of Zemun and then take one of the following buses that will take you to the Institute: 17, 84, 704, 706. Map of public transportation bus lines can be found here.

From City Center

You can get to Institute of Physics Belgrade from Zeleni Venac street using public transportation. You can use following buses: 84, 704, 706, 707.

Taxi Service

Here is a list of all Belgrade Taxi companies along with Belgrade taxi phone numbers (if you are calling from international cell phone, dial +381 11 first). If you are calling any taxi in Belgrade, you can expect them to come very fast - usually within 2 minutes of your call. They will be harder to reach during rush hour (around 5pm) or in harsh weather (in Belgrade, that includes light rain). Most taxi companies have a 20 percent discount on fairs scheduled by phone, and in exchange will want to know how far you are going when you call them (they may not take very short rides, in which case you should hail them on the street). Taxi service from Belgrade downtown, Belgrade's Central Train Station and Belgrade's Central Bus Station to the Institute of Physics Belgrade area will cost you about 500 dinars (6-7 EUR). Taxi service from Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport to the Institute of Physics Belgrade area will cost you about 1000 dinars (12-14 EUR). We recommend using the bold&italic companies for taxi in Belgrade.
