If you are going straight ==== Taxi ====Taxi in Niš is not expensive. According to Belgrade accept only direct rides, since a lot of cars are going there and Google maps it's 4.5 km from the biggest pay toll on city center to the wayhitchhiking spot.Hint: If you are patient Start costs 110 dinars and you every km is 40 dinars. That's around 300 dinars in total which is around 2.5 euros. We don't really have those taxis that rip of tourists (because we don't have time many tourists so they are not used to wait, it). There are few scammers around main bus station. Legal taxi in Serbia always have TX as last two letters on car plates. It's also possible very difficult to get a ride straight to Austria or Germany as many people from Bulgaria or Turkey taxi by waving with a hand like in movies. Most of taxis are going back home and not moving unless they have a ride. To order a taxi you have to pass this waycall them by phone. Also if If you don't have a driving licence is goodlocal sim card, because those people drive ask someone to call taxi for about 20 hours you and they need some to explain where taxi should pick you up from. Waiting time to sleepis usually 3-4 minutes. Most popular taxi companies are: Prvi, City, Cool, Eko, Bros, TDI, so they would be grateful if you can drive for awhile...

Sanja_spit was kicked out (October 2018) If you are going straight to Belgrade accept only direct rides, since many cars are going there.- I don't advice this, but if in some almost to impossible situation you don't find a direct ride to Belgrade, you may accept a ride to Pojate toll gate or Batocina toll gate. Those two are on the intersection with the road coming from western part of Serbia and you have higher chances to get a ride than if you go to any other city on the way. I know people want to help hitchhikers, but please don't accept rides which will make you stuck on some small toll gate without any traffic.- You may only accept rides to Požarevac toll gate because from there it's super easy to find a ride to Belgrade. Note that Požarevac city is another 17 km from the toll gate by . You don't want to go to the city, only to the toll gate which is 100 meters from the highway.- Don't ever accept a policemanride to Smederevo, because it's a dead end since most drivers will use the south toll gate "Kolari" to enter the city, but people going to Belgrade will never use it because they use southwest toll gate called "Vodanj". Returned I stuck in Kolari once and had to hitchhike back to the petrol station NAIS Požarevac toll gate and got get a ride to Belgrade form there. If your driver is going to Smederevo, you can kindly ask him if he is willing to take you to "Vodanj" toll gate. It will be 7 km more for him, but will save you from stucking in a wrong toll gate.
