Tour was amazing, tour guide Andro who is also an owner of the tour company was fantastic. It was raining really bad during our tour he took us to a cafe to wait for rain to pass a bit and after he tried to fit everything in for us to have best experience. He was on time and was flexible with time because our cruise was a little late on time originally schedule for a tour. He made sure we were happy and wanted my kids and I to go places we wanted and answered all the questions we had plus had such a great knowledge of the history of the region. Made my girls and I fall in love with Montenegro thanks to Andro. I highly recommend this tour you will be highly satisfied! If I could give it 10 stars I would!
2. Podgorica City Walking Tour
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 4 reviews
A city walking tour that will introduce you to Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, and it's administrative, cultural and economic centre. The wider area has been inhabited since the Stone Age, but its urban history starts with the arrival of the Romans in the 2nd century B.C. Dating from the period of Illyrian-Roman wars, Podgorica was always at the crossroads for Greek travellers, Roman legionnaires, Byzantine messengers, Serbian noblemen, Venetian merchants, Turkish invaders, Montenegrin warriors... More than 70 bombings in the Second World War have wiped out many buildings and monuments from the previous centuries. During our 90 minutes walk, we will pass by some of these remaining traces of the previous centuries but will also take a look at the way the city was rebuilt during the communist period and in the later decades.

I have just gotten back from my tour and I must say that this is one of the best town tours I have ever been on, I highly recommend it. Ana was my guide and she was extremely knowledgeable about the town and its history. She was able to answer any and all questions I had and kept the tour interesting. I would 100% tell anyone I know to do this tour when visiting Montenegro and Kotor as it was amazing. I would also like to note that even with covid, I felt comfortable on this great tour! Thank you, Ana!!

Very exciting and interesting tour that keeps you on your toes and keep wanting you more of it! Tanja was a blast and I could go with her anywhere in the world as a tour guide, she is absolutely amazing and a great host. The lake and the bay are amazing and there is so much to explore. I have enjoyed every second of the trip. Budva is beautiful and Lovcen is magical! Food and wine were perfect and the winery was charming, with very pleasant staff, and great service. I expected a lot from Montenegro but this trip gave me so much more, thank you Montenegro Wonders for this great experience and so much efort to make this trip unforgettable.
4. Jeep panoramic & hiking tour around Korita
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
"Tour around Korita" is the first fully marked panoramic route in Montenegro! It starts in Podgorica, the capital, and leads to the mountainous area of Kuči,up to the cliff of the wonderful Cijevna Canyon. The road is 65 km long, enough to not only escape from daily life for a few hours but also to plunge into a completely different surrounding with diverse landscapes, herbs, historical monuments, picturesque villages and viewpoints etc. The most attractive moment of this route is the hike to Grlo Sokolovo viewpoint which will leave you speechless for sure! Panoramic Road Circle around Korita takes you up to 1,400 m, so we recommend sturdy shoes.
Inclusions: Guided tour, Ride around Kucka Korita with stops on all significant viewpoints and historical monuments, Entrance to Marko Miljanov museum, Bottled water, Driver
Exclusions: transportation to the meeting point in Podgorica (can be provided on request), Lunch Can be arranged on request, 10€ per person

My heart is full of the gratitude for the amazing experience! Pava and Slavko did their best to provide me with the perfectly customized tour. Despite COVID-related restrictions and public holidays (I travelled to Montenegro in this early January) I visited a lot of interesting towns, museums and art galleries. When some place turned out to be closed because of the new restrictions Pava and Slavko would promptly found some other interesting nearby attraction. The culmination came while visiting the Lady of the Rock church. Especially for me Slavko managed to call the only employee and he kindly interrupt his Christmas holiday to provide us with the boat and sail to the island. He opened doors and I couldn't believe my eyes seeing all this rich and beautiful interior. No shortcomings, no regrets, no fail: again, my experiences were only positive.

We visited Dubrovnik in early May 2021; the COVID pandemic was still very much restricting tourism, which made the tours scarce and prohibitively expensive. Most operators were only conducting private tours which could cost up to 4 times the normal rates. Andrea, was positively keen in restarting tourism and went out of her way to tailor itineraries that suited places we intended to visit (which included some of the islands in Dubrovnik and some walking tours ) and matched it against other prospective participants to reduce cost and made the tours reasonably affordable yet very enjoyable. Andrea, was very informative on impending restrictions and helpful in facilitating PCR testing, border crossings and transfers. We wish Smile Dubrovnik all the best in the future. Thank you Andrea and Ivo for making our stay in Dubrovnik memorable.

This was a great tour, and our guide, Darko, was exceptionally knowledgeable. We would strongly recommend this tour. Our only issues were that we needed more bathroom breaks, and those in the backseat had considerable trouble hearing the guide while he was driving. Regardless, we would recommend this to all Montenegro travelers. Wear/take layers - can be chilly!

Had Slavko as our small tour leader, wonderful guy, very friendly and knowledgeable and is clearly proud of his country, which always makes for the best guides. Several hundreds of kilometers of driving, but it's a fantastic way to see a big chunk of Montenegro in a single day. Breakfast, lunch, coffee breaks, and plenty of photo stops along the way so you're never in the car for too long. First major stop is at the Tara River Canyon, the largest canyon in Europe, where it's possible to walk across the high bridge for fantastic views of the gorge below. You can also go ziplining here. Onward to Durmitor National Park and the absolutely stunning mountain scenery at Black Lake. Finally to the amazing Ostrog Monastery, built in the 17th century into a high vertical cliff. Bring extra camera batteries or a power bank for you phone because you will take a lot more pictures than you realize! :)
