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!

On this trip you will have a chance to visit Ostrog monastery, the most important pilgrimage site in Montenegro. One of the most popular attractions away from the coast, is situated in central Montenegro. On your way to the monastery, you will have some great photo opportunities above Boka Bay, and near Slano Lake. You will spend some time with your guide in the monastery, before proceeding to Skadar Lake NP. Rijeka Crnojevića is a hidden pearl of Montenegro. The visit was planned as a set of activities: one-hour boat ride, walk through the nature areas over there, and taking photos of, by the most of my tourists, most beautiful nature sight in Montenegro. It’s also planned to have a lunch in the fish restaurant whose offer is based on a tasting of local fish specialties (fish soup is great;)) and of course, the inevitable Montenegrin wines made from the finest varieties of grapes from this region.

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.

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!
