Amazing tour that hits some stunning spots

Amazing tour! Covered so many scenic spots, really was the best tour of my trip. Tour guide was so friendly, informative and accommodating, a lovely guy who made our trip great. Everything was well arranged. Would recommend to everyone coming to Montenegro.

Fantastic trip well worth the money

Our driver, Dragan, was very experienced with these roads. He was very polite and made sure we were all safe. I traveled by myself and as soon as got into the mini bus I was made very comfortable. The A/C was great and well needed. Plus with only 7 of us altogether we were able to talk to everyone. Dragan, told us all about our trip as we went and he stopped many times for us to take photos. We stopped in a small restaurant for lunch high up in the mountains with a great view, plus a lovely breeze on such a hot day. Dragan, explained all the menu, which was much needed. The food was lovely, although far too much, and the prices were very good. For sure if I ever do this trip again I will be asking for Dragan, (space class) to take me. Every euro was well worth paying for such a fantastic tour.

Reasonable

The guide was friendly and accessible, we visited all the planned places. However, the tour was basically going through the sites, without much explanation or information about them. Worth the beauty of the locations.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting both the friendliness of our guide and the beauty of the locations visited. We’re pleased that the tour delivered exactly what it was designed for - a scenic journey through Montenegro’s spectacular highlights, allowing guests to experience as many stunning viewpoints, historical places and natural attractions as possible in a single day.

Great way to spend a day

Nice tour, Dragen our tour guide was great. We did not get back until 1.45am because of summit / road closures, but was totally out of Dragens control and we were well looked after. Tour itself was great, boat ride of the lake was great and saw a pelican. Some amazing views.

Probably a good tour

Unfortunately I felt pretty let down by this tour. No-one’s fault it was unfortunate circumstances due to the EU Summit taking place and roads being closed. I think it would have been sensible to cancel. It all felt very rushed woth the sole intention to get back to Budva as quickly as possible. On the plus side we were at the lake early so it was quiet and beautiful. Guide was an excellent driver and very knowledgeable. However we had to miss a couple of the stop points and had to take lunch somewhere that clearly wasn’t expecting us so it took an age for the food to arrive and it wasn’t great although the waiter was very sweet and apologetic. Don’t be put off by review is probably a very good tour with some spectacular views!!

Operator response

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. We are truly sorry that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. The EU Summit created an unusual situation throughout the country, with road closures, delays, and access restrictions that affected our planned itinerary. While these circumstances were beyond our control, we completely understand your disappointment that some stops had to be missed and that parts of the day felt rushed. We are grateful for your positive comments about the lake, the scenery, and your guide’s knowledge and driving. We also appreciate your patience regarding the lunch stop, which had to be changed at short notice due to the disruptions. Thank you for your understanding and for recognizing that this was an exceptional situation. We hope the beauty of Montenegro left you with some wonderful memories, and we wish you safe and happy travels.

High Views of Beautiful Areas- See it like a local

Our tour guide Andro was a wealth of knowledge about Montenegro now and in its past before becoming a country. He was very friendly and kind. The EU Summit was happening and he had to navigate closed roads and closed tourist stops but we still had an amazing unforgettable day. Our boat ride on Skadar lake was so beautiful. We had a great local lunch in a mountain town. The viewpoints were perfect and all of the top spots in the area. You get to see Sveti Stefan from up high. I would recommend this tour for those wanting to get away from the crowds and a non beach day. Have fun going down serpentine road and sweeping views of Kotor Bay to the Adriatic. Worth it all for this!!!

Decent but not fantastic

The drivers were great, it felt safe and organised. The tour itself felt overpriced, there was a lot of driving and quite a few stops for look outs, the monastery stop didn't feel worthwhile and the boat trip was a little underwhelming, we literally went out on to the lake and back through the reeds. The look out over the lake was more impressive. We went to a restaurant for lunch which was reasonable but probably should have been included given the price of the tour. I had a nice day but if I were to book again, I would choose something else, it didn't feel like a premium tour given its premium price tag.
