Bar Montenegro Highlights Shore Excursion

Overall, the trip was a good value for the money, as there were about 14 people in a small van. The driver was very good. The tour guide Isabella was clearly very experienced, but had trouble keeping us informed about her location. She offered no way for us to stay in touch by phone and in fact was not at one of our meeting points, forcing us to find her at a nearby restaurant with tour members who decided to lengthen their meal. Later, another woman was lost for about 20 minutes and had no way to reach the tour guide by phone.

Our tour guide Katherine was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating historical insights while keeping the tour engaging and fun. We visited breathtaking landmarks and still had plenty of free time to explore the charming local shops and enjoy an authentic lunch. The transportation was comfortable, and we appreciated the peace of mind knowing the ship wouldn't leave without us. It was a perfectly organized, unforgettable day that provided incredible value. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

The trip was good just unfortunate that weather was so bad and we got very wet and cold before boarding minivan. The minivan was a little tired and extremely bumpy. We decided to curtail our trip and driver and guide very helpful to get us a taxi to return to cruise ship. Obviously nobody could change the weather so it is what it is.

The tour involved a lot of driving in a rather uncomfortable van. While the itinerary itself was acceptable, we had difficulty understanding the tour guide, and very little information was provided throughout the excursion. Communication regarding the boat tour was also poor. Those who chose not to participate were left to find something else to do on their own, in an area with very little to offer. Overall, the organization and communication could have been much better.

It was a long time in the bus between the cities with very curvy roads. I wish that would have been explained in the explaination of the tour. Not sure if I would go back to Montenegro again.

Well worth the price! Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about Montenegro. Traveling in the bus was beautiful and informative. Our guide made the time go quickly. Budva and Stari Bar were my favorite parts. The lake was oaky, but the loud diesel engine made it less enjoyable. I would recommend this tour - even the boat ride.

Modern urbanization and surprising church visit Highly recommended

The guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating, but the van did not have Effective air-conditioning and it was an extremely hot day and everyone was complaining and sweating. Also, the description of the tour did not mention traveling up a mountain with switchbacks, causing my son to get sick in the van from car sickness. My 31 year old son.

So, booked this tour yesterday. The description /itinerary was completely incorrect. The van we were in did not have a working air conditioner!! The guide mentioned the company knew about it as well. 7 hr tour in high heat and humidity with a non working air conditioner. 1st stop, walked far just to see a church. Walked thru the old city where several of us wanted to stop and shop. We were told no. Several of us needed to use the restroom. We were told no because the line was long. The tour guide spent a lot of time talking to the drivers in his native language. Told us very little pertinent info. A few stories, here and there. Tons of silence. Second stop, we were told the boat ride was the only enjoyable experience in the town. 20 Euro extra per person. The boat ride was nice but by then, we were all hungry. No time to stop for food. The guide pushed us to wait for the next stop. 3rd stop was at 3pm. No food stops until then!!! Tour started at 9am. No good shopping unfortunately either. The tour guide wanted us all to eat together at a specific restaurant, so we did. The last stop on the itinerary, which I was so excited for never happened. Apparently the old town of Bar was mostly destroyed in an earthquake yrs ago. But.... it was still on the itinerary!!. My husband said worst tour EVER!!

This was a 5 to 6 hour tour. It was wonderful to see all the panoramic views of Montenegro. The tour guide will offer a boat trip for an hour. It was relaxing, but the boat driver did not provide any information of what we were seeing. It is something nice to do, but it is not necessary to do this. Our tour guide ,Dragon, was fantastic. At times, he was a little hard to understand, but overall he was terrific. I would highly recommend this tour.
