What to do and see in Herceg-Novi Municipality, Montenegro: The Best Tours

March 20, 2022 Natalie Tallman

Herceg Novi (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Херцег Нови; pronounced [xěrtseɡ nôʋiː]) is a coastal town in Montenegro located at the entrance to the Bay of Kotor and at the foot of Mount Orjen. It is the administrative center of the Herceg Novi Municipality with around 33,000 inhabitants. Herceg Novi was known as Castelnuovo ("New castle" in Italian) between 1482 and 1797, when it was part of Ottoman Empire and the Albania Veneta of the Republic of Venice. It was a Catholic bishopric and remains a Latin titular see as Novi. Herceg Novi has had a turbulent past, despite being one of the youngest settlements on the Adriatic. A history of varied occupations has created a blend of diverse and picturesque architectural style in the city.

There were two of us on this tour with Mladen, mother and daughter. We both had such a wonderful trip. I don't think you will find another guide that would create a trip so enjoyable. We were afraid that in these days of Covid that we would have to cancel all of our plans, but Mladin was creative and resourceful and have us a once in a lifetime tour that we will never forget. We really felt that we saw the real Montenegro. It was wonderful. He was friendly, spoke English very well, and was funny (kind of) that's an inside joke. We would highly recommend any tour he gives.

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.

Found this company by luck and what an EXCELLENT find it was. After a quick chat on the kind of things we like and the places we wanted to visit these guys soon worked out an achievable full day (8am to 9pm) private tour and price. Everything was confirmed via email and the itinerary was perfect along with flexibility from the driver. They did all the arrangements and covered all the fees in the price so we could sit back and relax. A drive around the bay and through Kotor onto Lovcen amazing drive up through the national park (thank god we didn't try and drive that one!) the mausoleum and views over the mountains. Cetinje full English speaking tour of the palace. Skadar a private boat tour with a local tour guide (Niko) who was amazing and a drive back via Budva to check out if we might want to visit it in more detail. FANTASTIC TRIP, SERVICE and PRICE have already recommended them to guests at our hotel and friends considering visiting gorgeous Montenegro

The beauty of Montenegro lies in the fact that everything is reachable, from the sea to the mountains. And so it was, for my friends and myself with a very skilled guidance of Montenegro Style crew. We enjoyed comfortable helicopter ride, listening stories about Montenegrin landscape,National Parks, mountain peaks and amazing lakes. Montenegro Style are great, easy going and they went an extra mile in shaping our special tour. Thank you dear people!

The most unique of this tour is sightseeing of entire Boka Bay. The Blue Cave situated in Lustica peninsulla rightfully carries the title of the most wanted attraction in our Bay.This cave was created by force of waves, clashing the 100mt high cliff for hundreds of years.This is our first stop, where you can enjoy 30 mins of swimming in marvelous cave crystal blue water.It was named the Blue Cave because of its unusual blue color which is the result of the reflection of sun rays on clear sunny days. After the cave, we will make a short sightseeing of Mamula Island, which was used as a prison during World Wars. Proceeding ahead we will enter one of the three submarine tunnels, which served to hide submarines during Second World War. Our next stop will be Lady of the Rocks, the artificial Island in front of Perast, made in 15th Century . The island is famous for its stunning Catholic church made by Venetians in 1630.By extraordinary panoramic view of Perast, we are getting back to Kotor.

Marko's hospitality was amazing. The boat ride was beautiful but the very best part was the dinner that his family made and the thought that went into it. It was delicious and the homemade cherry liquor made by his grandmother was the best. We very much appreciated the entire trip and how gracious Marko and his family were. If you get the opportunity take this excursion and you will really feel what Montenegran hospitality is like.
