Private Podgorica City Walking Tour
Itinerary
Trg Republike
10 min
Your guide will meet you at the centre of Podgorica – Trg Nezavisnosti - Independence Square (formerly Square of the Republic), at the fountain. In case of rain, the guide will be positioned by the Podgoricka Bank, under the eaves surrounding the square.
Montenegrin National Theatre
15 min
We will start towards the monument of Marko Miljanov and the Bokeska street, stop by the National Theatre, and continue towards the statue of Petar II Petrovic Njegos, a famous prince-bishop, writer and philosopher, situated in the park opposite the theatre.
Millennium Bridge
15 min
We continue the tour via one of the bridges over Moraca River, which flows through Podgorica, and will see the Millenium Bridge, one of Podgorica's landmarks.
Vladimir Vysotsky Monument
5 min
We will pass by the monument of Vladimir Vysotsky, a Russian poet, singer and songwriter, who lived in Podgorica for a while.
Blazo Jovanovic Bridge
10 min
We will cross the river Moraca again, at Blazo Jovanovic Bridge and continue towards Sastavci (or Skaline), at the confluence of the rivers Ribnica and Moraca.
Sastavci
10 min
Sastavci or Skaline is a very picturesque site, but admittedly uncared for. Above the confluence stand barely visible ruins of the fortress of Ribnica. These are known as Nemanjin grad, as it was here that Stefan Nemanja who subsequently founded Nemanjic dynasty, was born. We will cross an old picturesque stone bridge on our way to Stara Varos, the oldest preserved quarter of Podgorica, dating back to the Ottoman rule.
Starodoganjska Mosque
10 min
At Stara Varos we will briefly stop at the Starodoganjska Mosque, which was built in the 15th century and for a long time maintained by the traders from the nearby shops.
Clock Tower
10 min
Sahat Kula (The Clock Tower) is one of the important landmarks of Podgorica. It stands at the edge of the Stara Varos, facing the socialist apartment blocks across the street. Built in the 18th century by Adzi Pasha Osmanagic.
Monument to A.S. Pushkin and N.N. Goncharova
5 min
Located on the corner of Njegoseva street, it portraits the famous Russian poet Pushkin reading poetry to his wife Natalija Gonchareva. After a brief photo stop at this monument, we will return to Independence Square.

Spending just one day in...
Spending just one day in Podgorica, this tour was very good to have an idea about the city. From early years to the modern era, our tour guide Milica made it possible to understand the city dynamics. Also gave an excellent replica of a famous song with her name sang by a renowned Montenegrina singer.
Operator response

Fantastic Private Guided Tour
Ana was a phenomenal guide and I learned quite a bit on this enjoyable walking tour. The meeting point was clearly communicated and Ana held a sign, so it was easy to locate her at the start of the tour. The tour route included several different parts of town and gave a fairly comprehensive overview of the city's history and culture. Ana was very knowledgeable and gladly answered my many questions. I also had many opportunities to take photos and we even had a chance to stop to taste rakija along the way. At the end of the tour, Ana provided several helpful recommendations for places to eat and other sites nearby I might want to visit. I would highly recommend this tour.

Walking Tour a must to appreciate Podgorica
We were not impressed with Podgorica as a town until Ana Zaric helped us appreciate Podgorica's buildings and history. She is an excellent guide with perfect English and we valued her local perspective. We would very much recommend this visit, even in the rain.
Operator response
Dear Douglas,
Thank you very much for taking the time to review our Private Podgorica City Walking Tour. A couple of years ago, before the pandemic, Podgorica had increased numbers of visitors and quite a big number of blogs with negative connotations, so we thought that it would be good to create a short orientation tour with some of our best guides in order to help our visitors to get some historical and cultural context in which the town has developed. Ana will be delighted to see your review, and we hope that it will help us to have more visitors who will discover the town with the help of the local guides.
Kind regards,
Slavica

Very pleasant stroll around the capital.
The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and even though the city doesn’t have as many points of interest as a big city, it was a very pleasant tour.
Operator response
Hi,
Thank you very much for the review, our guide will be very happy to hear that you have enjoyed the tour. Podgorica is a comparatively small capital, certainly, with fewer amenities, still we hope it was worth visiting.
Kind regards,
