I booked this trip via their website and asked for the day trip to the Ostrog Monastery on 15th September. As this was a day out I thought the price very reasonable, considering the current situation, so we had the guide to ourselves! Igor collected us at our apartment and brought us back to the apartment afterwards. Igor is most pleasant, funny and extremely knowledgeable, regarding the history of Montenegro. It is obvious that he is passionate about history and he told us all the stories and legends of all the places that we passed along the way. When we mentioned where we had been and where we were going, he volunteered additional information regarding things to look out for, which he didn't need to do. The monastery itself is magnificent and a lot of the traditions were explained to us and we spent most of our time at the upper monastery, which was built into the rockface! On our way back to Kotor we stopped at a traditional restaurant, where we had knuckle (knee) of beef and lamb cooked the traditional way. This was accompanied by a traditional salad and washed down with homemade wine, which was delicious. Just by the way, lunch is not included in the tour and we were taken there because our conversation about where we had been turned to food and Igor asked if we would like to stop for a late lunch. If you love history and local traditions then this trip is for you!

February in Montenegro My friends and I spent some wonderful time exploring Montenegro. Despite the covid situation and the local news, we felt really safe and we enjoyed our time here. Also, it turned out to be very useful to book a tour, because we learnt a lot from our beloved guide Djukan! Big thanks to making our stay here unforgettable. We will come back in summer for sure.

We were on Infinity of the Seas in September 2019 and were lucky enough to have Milo as our tour guide for our tour on September 13, 2019. He greeted us at the port and said "Surprise you get me as your tour guide", the four of us were so delighted. We had booked the 6 hour tour recommended for cruise passengers and it was excellent. We added the tour for our Lady of the Rock in Perast and it was wonderful. Milo gave us a private tour of the Church and explained the history of how it came to be. After this tour, Milo Popovic gave us a tour of the rest of Kotor with breathtaking views and explained the history of the Island to us. His knowledge was outstanding (he could be a history teacher). He also treated us to lunch at a hilltop restaurant. There were numerous stops along the way and Milo took great pictures of the 4 of us. It was a wonderful day, certainly one of the best we had. We highly recommend Tours of Milo and hope we have the opportunity to return to Kotor and would definitely do another tour with Milo Popovic

I cannot praise Angelika and the team at 3e highly enough. I wanted to organise a trip for 40 friends to Montenegro to celebrate my partner's 50th birthday. a friend recommended 3e. I contacted Angelika and explained our rather complicated requirements - with a combination of long hikes and adventure sports for some, relaxation for others, lots of culture and history, authentic experiences, good food and wine, hip locations and boutique accommodation, and all of it for not too high a budget! much to my amazement, she came back to me within 24 hours with a proposed itinerary which exactly matched our requirements - she immediately understood the style that our group was looking for, and after that we only made minor changes to the basic itinerary. From then on, everything about the organisation could not have been smoother - the communication back and forth was fast, the 3e team successfully greeted our guests arriving at 3 different airports on multiple different days, all of our guides and drivers were excellent, the accommodation in each part of the country was local and authentic as requested, and most importantly we got exactly the amazing set of experiences that we were looking for: skiing and show-shoeing, long hikes, stunning views, historical tours, private tours and tastings at vineyards, bee-farms, olive farms and herb farms, boat-rides, oyster tasting, and many excellent meals and wine-tastings. 40 people left Montenegro as ambassadors of the country, and we all hope to return again. If anyone is planning a trip to Montenegro or any of the neighbouring countries, I will always recommend the 3e team. our itinerary included many of the individual experiences listed on this page and all were excellent: hiking the Ladder of Kotor, an amazing hike from Stari Bar to Lake Skadar, culinary and wine tours around Lake Skadar, a boat-excursion and oyster feast on the Bay of Kotor, a guided tour around Cetinje, etc.

I booked this tour to learn more about silk and weaving. We were shown quickly how to get the silks from the caccoons and how the wheel spins the thread but the weavers were not working and we were unable to see the process. The guide was very pushy about sales.
