Excursión Bar en tierra : Experiencia Rumija 4x4 con almuerzo tradicional

We booked this amazing experience through viator with no issues. Out of all our wonderful excursion that we did during our 10-day Mediterranean cruise, this was my favorite. The host was extremely communicative even before the experience making sure that the proper car seat was provided for our 4-year-old. He also provided very clear instructions on the meet up point, itinerary, and paths of communication which I very much appreciated. The day before, we were in communication to confirm details and to alert him that our cruise was delayed in leaving the previous port which would most likely cause a delay in our arrival at Bar. He was very responsive and assured me he would be monitoring and would make sure we would still be picked up even with a late arrival. Our arrival was about 2 hours late and he made sure there was someone there to pick us up exactly where he said they would be. Once we were all accounted for and began our excursion I knew we were in great hands and immediately relaxed and began to enjoy the beauty of Bar. I loved the fact that it was us and only one other family, so we were able to really get to know our tour guide and ask all the questions we wanted. Milan graciously answered all our questions and taught us so much about the history of Bar. We started at one of the world's oldest olive trees and learned all its rich history. We then were driven up to a beautiful olive tree grove and stopped for some refreshing and cool mountain water. The tour was at our pace, which was so relaxing and comforting. We stopped several times as we were making our way up the mountain to admire and take in the beautiful views. It truly was stunning. We finally arrived at our destination, which was our host’s beautiful mountain cabin. He and his crew had prepared a delicious meal of fresh meat, vegetables, bread, olive oil, and amazing cake. This meal was top 5 best meals of my life with an incredible view. In addition to all the food, we had Montenegrin wine (homemade by Drago!), fresh pomegranate juice and local beer. The wine was so good I brought a bottle home. He made sure our plates or glasses were never empty and it truly felt like we were having a beautiful family meal. We really got to know Drago, his crew, and the other family on the tour. We laughed, ate, and drank until our bellies could hold no more and then sadly we had to make our way back down the mountain and back to the cruise ship. I didn’t want our time to end. Milan made sure we were back to our ship safely and on time. Despite being on some small mountain roads, Milan navigated without any issues, and we knew we were in great hands. I don’t know when we will be back to Bar but if we ever are lucky enough to go back, I would absolutely book this excursion again. Not only was it fun, informative and leisurely but we felt like we had made new friends when we left. The people of Bar were so warm and were happy we were there and you could really feel that. I loved everything about this tour and was so glad that we booked it!

We had the best tour guides/drivers and our host was amazing! We started in suvs and trucks and went off roading in the mountains of beautiful Montenegro. The roads are mostly rough and bumpy dirt roads but not too extreme. All the tour guides/drivers in our group were amazing and created the perfect environment for us made us feel apart of their family/brotherhood! We made a stop about halfway through to our hosts house in the middle of the mountains where he cooked us the most incredible home cooked meal with locally grown fruits and vegetables. He made his own olive oil, red wine, grappa, and pomegranate juice! The whole meal and the hospitality was amazing and they really made us appreciate their culture. 100/10 would recommend this tour to anyone!

Easy going & friendly tour guide; Milan told us stories of the history of Montenegro. He made it interesting & fun. It was cool seeing the oldest Olive tree in the World, cows walking the streets of winding mountains that we drove & stopping at fresh water reservoirs to fill our water bottles-better minerals here than what the store sells!! We had a few stops for photo opportunities along the way-breath taking views!! Our person chef Drago; owner of Rumija made the most tender & delicious meat & potatoes with farm to table fruit, cheese, vegetables, wine & liqueur! They sell their homemade wine & liqueur we took advantage of 2 bottles for home to continue the memories! A fun surprise was shooting the air gun group event at the end of dinner. I highly recommend this tour & would love to go back!

If you’re visiting Montenegro, stop looking and book this tour! It was truly a hidden treasure and one of the highlights of our entire cruise. Communication started off perfectly with an email the night before from Milan that confirmed everything, gave crystal-clear directions to the meeting point, and made us feel completely at ease before we even arrived. Milan was absolutely outstanding. He was personable, easygoing, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about his country. Since he has spent time in the United States, we had great conversations comparing life in both countries. What really impressed us was that he never rushed anything and was happy to adjust conversations and the pace of the day to whatever interested us most. His only goal was making sure we had an unforgettable experience. The stops were incredible. We visited one of the oldest olive trees in the region and learned its fascinating history. We drove high into the mountains to a national monument with breathtaking panoramic views, visited a beautiful historic church, and even had an unexpected stop when a family of cows decided to block the road—a hilarious memory we’ll never forget! Lunch was something special. We enjoyed a home-cooked meal at a local family’s restaurant where the owner is one of Milan’s longtime friends. The meat was so tender it practically melted in your mouth, and the potatoes and vegetables were delicious. We shared homemade wine (which was so good we bought two bottles to take home), sampled traditional local specialties, and had such a wonderful time talking with both the owners and the other guests around the table. By the end of lunch, it felt like we had made new friends. As if that wasn’t enough, we stopped to fill our water bottles with fresh mountain spring water, and we even had a fun group competition shooting an air rifle at a can. It was such a unique experience that had everyone laughing. Best of all, Milan made sure we returned to the ship with plenty of time to spare, so there was never any stress. This may be a newer tour company, but don’t let that fool you. They provide first-class service, authentic experiences, and memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re lucky enough to get Milan as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable day. Highly recommended—10 out of 10!

This was such a wonderful experience. If you do one excursion do this one. The Montenegro hospitality is on another level. The traditional home cooking was divine the best potato’s I’ve ever had. The host was so friendly. Truly will never forget this experience.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. We would HIGHLY recommend it. The guides were amazing. It was so well planned out. They brought you to many locations for beautiful pictures. But it was the lunch, homemade by Drago that was over the top. It was wonderful. We ate in his home. The meat, vegetables and bread were out of this world. Definitely book this trip. I booked through Viator and the company messaged me and made it very clear how to find them off the cruise ship. They got us back to the ship in plenty of time. This is one not to miss.

Excursion was excellent pick up went smoothly driver was informative and the food was fantastic highly recommend

10/10 experience ⭐️ highly recommend! Milano and Drago were excellent hosts, there’s no better way to visit Bar than booking this experience. We felt like we hanging out with friends and getting a true taste of Montenegro. The food that Drago prepared was absolutely wonderful! The meat and potatoes were so tender and delicious. We also got to experience, homemade wine and other homemade alcoholic beverages which were phenomenal. We absolutely loved our time and recommend this to all cruise goers. Thank you again for your amazing hospitality!!!

From the minute we were picked up from the cruise port everything’s was perfect! Can’t give enough kudos to the guides and to Drako! The price was about half of what the cruise was charging for the same, but large group, experience. The food and atmosphere were amazing. If you considering it- Just do it!

This tour was amazing - tour guides (Degan) so friendly with stops up the mountain for photos and points of interest. Drago the host, welcomed us to his holiday home and cooked an amazing meal, welcoming us all like his own family. All local produce including wine and olive oil. A memorable experience we will not forget - the scenery was magical.
