Unique local gastro experience in hills above Budva

What an amazing experience from start to finish, petar, our guide picked us up from our hotel, and took us on a fantastic tour through the beautiful hills of Montenegro, visiting some churches and a nunnery along the way. The real highlight was being welcomed into Rajko home, a lovely man who lives in his family’s 250 year history home, he grows his own veggies and grapes and makes wine. We had a delicious meal with a lot of his homegrown produce, some local cured meats and cheese, and quite a lot of his wine … he is very hospitable. It was such a special evening, full of laughter , great company and a real taste of Montenegrin life and culture. We felt so welcome, it was so much more than just a sightseeing tour. One of those experiences that will stay with us for a long time, and a real highlight of our holiday, we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. Thank you Petar and Rajko for a memorable time.

We thought we were signing up for a tour of the hills behind Budva. We ended up with fascinating monastery history, a meal we’re still talking about, and so many laughs that our cheeks hurt. Petar was a wonderful guide—full of stories and generous with his time. Then Rajko welcomed us into his home for an incredible meal made with food from his garden, accompanied by homemade wine. It felt less like a tour stop and more like being invited over by a friend. Nothing felt rushed, and the whole day was warm, funny, and memorable. If you’re in Budva, spend a day with Petar and Rajko. It was the highlight of our trip!

Excellent trip, guide very knowledgeable, friendly and chatty. Enjoyed trip to the monasteries and the stunning scenery of Croatia. Finished off with lovely meal and wine with very hospitable host Natalie. Would highly recommend the trip

I cannot recommend this enough. Petar was the best guide and provided so many tips and really allowed us to see this beautiful country away from the tourist crowds. Fantastic hosts, fantastic food and fantastic views. Do this trip early in your holiday as Petar will help you plan the rest! He is so passionate about his home and so genuine and helpful. You will love it!

What a wonderful evening exploring Montenegro’s culture and heritage! Our guide, Petar, was exceptionally kind, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the country’s history. We loved learning about each monastery, hearing the stories behind them, and admiring their beautiful architecture and religious significance. To top off an already incredible evening, we enjoyed a fantastic homemade meal at a charming 200-year-old stone home nestled in the hills above Budva. Our host, Rajko, was just as warm and welcoming. He gave us a tour of his beautiful garden, shared his homemade wine, and treated us to breathtaking views that made the experience even more memorable. This tour was the perfect combination of history, culture, hospitality, authentic local cuisine, amazing wine and of course rakija !! We highly, highly recommend it to anyone visiting Montenegro!

Please don't tell anyone because this was one of the most amazing cultural experiences we've ever had and we need to keep it secret. Peter and Rico team together to give you an unforgettable experience. Amazing monasteries, incredible food, and off the chain experience. Let's keep it our secret so we can do it over and over. This was Off The Chain!!!

I can't explain how amazing and lovely this event was. Petar is such a wonderful person and amazing human being full of knowledge and history about Budva. The people he introduced us to are all lovely people and the experience is beyond words. It was a memory that we will cherish forever. Thank you!

The most lovely authentic informative experience. An afternoon spent with beautiful people enjoying homegrown food and local drinks whilst we learn about life in Montenegro. 100% recommend if you are visiting Montenegro you won’t be disappointed

This is a mist do activity if you are visiting! My adult daughter and I spent a few days at the coast. This was a great experience of local culture and history. Visiting the authentic home in the hills/country was more than we expected! Peter answered every question we had and taught us so much more about the history of Montenegro. The monasteries were enlightening and the small winery was run by a fabulous host. We learned so much about the everyday life of the locals.
