Great tour!

The one hour tour was complete with enough information but not too much!

The cave was beautiful. ...

The cave was beautiful. It is very cool inside and you need good shoes as it is all walking. Our guide pointed out all of the different kinds of formations along with their nicknames. We took the early tour which was not as crowded as the later tour when we returned back. There is a nice view of the valley and a little cafe to grab a drink or bite to eat.

Beautiful cave, but lesser experience

The cave is very beautiful, and the rock formations are spectacularly highlighted. A little train takes you to the cave for a tour of about an hour. The downside is that you cannot reserve, so you only know how big your group is when you are on site. The entire train was full at our place, which resulted in too large a group at the cave at the same time, so the guide was hard to hear. It didn't help that there was a small child in the group who kept screaming in the cave for three-quarters of an hour. The guide had to intervene in the interest of the group and address them or send them back out of the cave. Conclusion: the cave was beautiful, but the experience we had means it is not recommended.

Beautiful cave but watch out for footwear and clothing (temperature and humidity)

It is worth his 17 euros per person. The visit lasts about an hour including a little train that takes you there. The cave was 'adapted' for visitors, there is a pathway, stairs, ... even a bar was installed and everything is well lit. You can see the necessary stalagmites and stalactites there. We had a very good guide who also told the history of the cave, which was apparently only discovered in the 19th century and has not been open to the public for very long. In the cave it is 8 to 12 degrees Celsius so a jacket is not a luxury. Good footwear is also a recommendation because it can be a bit slippery on the ground due to the moisture. Upon entering the cave and in the 'middle' when passing the entrance to the 'second chamber' in the cave, there can be quite a lot of wind.

Worth vizit

Lipa Cave is definitely worth visiting. The cave is beautiful and interesting, and the tour was enjoyable. It is quite cold inside, so I definitely recommend bringing a jacket, even in summer. Our guide was friendly and gave us some useful explanations during the tour. Overall, a nice experience and a good place to visit while in Montenegro.

Operator response

Dear Ela, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re glad you enjoyed the beauty of Lipa cave and had a pleasant experience with our guide. And yes, a jacket is always a good companion at our constant underground temperature of 10-12°C, even on the hottest summer days! We hope to welcome you again someday. Kindest regards, Lipa cave team

Nice cold tour.

Nice tour of the cave. Not too long and not too short. It was 32 degrees outside so the temperature inside the cave of 10-12 degrees was nice. You will be picked up by a small train and taken to the entrance of the cave. That's where the tour starts. A sweater is recommended. Inside the cave, the guide tells all kinds of interesting facts about the cave and how it was created. The tour duration is perfect. Also for small children who were mine 3 and 6 and enjoyed themselves fine. All in all a nice trip not to be missed.

Operator response

Dear Pieturb, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed our Cave experience tour and that the cooler cave temperature was a welcome break from the summer heat. It’s especially wonderful to know that your little ones, aged 3 and 6, had a great time and that you found the tour both interesting and just the right length. Thank you as well for recommending Lipa cave as an experience not to be missed! We hope to welcome you and your family again in the future. Kindest regards, Lipa cave team
