Parque Nacional Privado Lovcen con degustación de comida y vino.

This experience was one of the best excursions we have ever had. Our tour guide, Dragan, was one of the best guides we have ever had. We were on a Viking cruise, but chose to do a small group private tour and boy we were rewarded! First, the time of year was critical. We were there in early November so there was not a lot of traffic on the 25 switchback highway. We saw only 4 buses and none of those went toward Peter II's grave. Thus, the trip up took only about 1 hour with stops. Dragan showed us pictures in the busier season of literally a hundred vehicles backed up because the road is so narrow and people have to back up to let folks through. Thus , we had extra time for the tour! Next , when we got to the top snack shop we were the only visitors there! During the whole time we drove up Dragan passionately recounted the history of the area including his family's roots dating back to 1500. His love of Montenegro impressed me and added enjoyment to the trip. Dragan, my friend and I traversed the 461 stairs to the crypt and saw the most beautiful views of the country. He recounted the history of the crypt and all the details surrounding it. After these amazing views we went to a village to taste prosciutto, cheese, wine and Grappa. The cherry brandy was unbelievable! The real surprise was getting to go to Dragan's family smokehouse and learn all about the process from him including the family history. He was absolutely amazing!!! We got extra time because the traffic was so good, so he gave us a further tour of Kotor. I cannot express the gratitude enough to him other than to say thanks and YOU need to spend the money and book this tour. Amazing!

A fantastic day with Alex our guide who lived in the area and was able to give us the history as well as current affairs. Going as a private tour was a true VIP experience. The day was a fabulous balance of experience, seeing, tasting and learning. The tour description is a teaser for what you will actually have the privilege to share. A must do!

Perfect day! Our favorite day of our entire tour! Don’t hesitate, book now!!!!! Best local experience with Dragan! The experience and view on top of the mountain was out of this world. Lots of steps but worth it for the view. Enjoyed visiting the national park and learning the history of this beautiful country with a local. Best tasting experience enjoying the fruits of his and his family’s labor. We were impressed with his passion in carrying on his family tradition. Best prosciutto you’ll ever taste. All of their products were wonderful! The cherry liqueur was my favorite. Purchased some with us to enjoy again at an excellent price!

Our tour with Dragan exceeded our expectations in every way. Dragan had extensive knowledge of the history of Montenegro spanning over the last millennium and we enjoyed hearing about that as we looked over sweeping panoramas and beautiful monuments. Montenegro is beautiful to look at even without the background, but learning the history gives it a richness that feels much more powerful. But what really made this tour a one-of-a-kind, standout experience was the personal touch. Learning about the lives of the Montenegrin people through chatting with Dragan and then finally as Dragan shared his own home, and his family's homemade prosciutto and rakija with us, and local wine made by his friends and neighbors. We got to see the pictures of his ancestors, family heirlooms, homemade crafts, and other pieces of cultural memorabilia. We saw where his family cures and smokes hundreds of legs of prosciutto and learned in depth about the labor that goes into process of prosciutto production. For us, it was this personal touch that made Dragan's tour an unforgettable highlight of our trip here in Montenegro. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to get more intimately acquainted with the local culture.

This was by far the best experience we had on the trip! Dragan was super knowledgable, and answered any question we asked. After the scenic tour we went to his family home and ate the best prosciutto and goat cheese we’d ever had (and we are meat and cheese lovers). This is a must do, I highly recommend!

Anyone looking for an out of the box experience.. maybe a more experienced traveler who has done all the mainstream things and wants to have an elevated experience!

Wow - this was easily one of the MOST memorable parts of our trip. Dragan was amazing, he taught us so much about Montenegro's culture & history on the drive up. He let us stop for many view points and photo ops (despite it being way too cloudy to really see anything lol) and after the Mausoleum, he took us to his house in his village where we got to see his prosciutto smokehouse, and sit around a table sampling rakia, cheese + meat boards, and wine. This felt like a true local experience and we loved it, it really made our entire day! You should definitely book this experience if you're considering it, because while the Lovcen National Park tour is amazing, the best part is getting to go to Dragan's village and try some local food and learn about his culture. We really loved it. Thank you Dragan!

Alex was very knowledgeable and a great guide! One of the hilights of our trip! The prosciutto and snacks were fabulous. Would recommend 10/10.

Dragan was an amazing tour guide! He was so knowledgable and professional. The views of the mountains were breathtaking. The tour of the village and tasting of the locally produced food and wines were delicious! I highly recommend this experience.

This tour offers a beautiful and personal insight into the surroundings of Kotor, combined with a culinary experience. The tour guide, Mili, was incredibly friendly, and we had wonderful conversations about the country and its people. We would definitely recommend the tour and book it again.
