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.

We loved our tour of Montenegro with Pavle from Nomad! We felt like we were travelling with friends rather than a tour guide! Its great discovering new countries with a tour guide who is easy going , informative, passionate and has such a fun & positive vibe! Nomad are flexible and easily accomodate your preferred activity options. We loved our rafting, zip line, hiking, nature and mountain bike adventures. All the other providers (rafting/bikes/ accomodation/food etc) are also amazing! The scenery is stunning and Nomad know all the beautiful places to show visitors! We highly recommend this or any tour with Nomad Montenegro, they are very friendly and go above and beyond for their guests! They also have a great local ethos and are doing great things!

Today it is a women's monastery.

Budva is a must see for anyone traveling in the region. Its an "old town" with a wonderful past. The night time entertainment in the city is great too but start your day with a city tour. Its worth the cost and will blow your mind...or just boggle it.

Through centuries many empires came to Montenegro and many succeeded in conquering it. No wonder why there are still remains of different architectural styles standing today still. On this tour, we will guide you through stories and places that have that little “something”. Our first stop is the Old royal capital of Cetinje. It’s a living postcard with small houses, museums and a monastery from the 15th century. The next stop is, Budva old town, the simple must-see spot in Montenegro visited by all travelers but popular for locals also. Kotor old town is a medieval town with a history dating from over 1000 years B.C.Since 1979 the Kotor old town is on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. On the way back we will do a photo stop above St. Stefan island, the former fishing village situated on a peninsula today is visited by Holywood stars and Royal families Skadar Lake and visiting Virpazar town once was the main marketplace of the area but today the main spot in National Park Skadar Lake.

Panoramic road along the lakes, through small picturesque villages, through the black pine forest whose grandiose trees, up to 50 m in height, withstand a full 400 years we will reach the highest inhabited town on the Balkans, Zabljak. Well known as the "Montenegrin eyes" the Black Lake is the biggest and the most beautiful of 17 lakes in the Durmitor National Park. A short walk to the lake and maybe moderate hiking along the marked trails and snacks in the bar on the shore, will give you pleasure and refreshment for the whole day. After the break, we continue, giving Durmitor a chance to convince us that its beauty is not over. Tara river has the deepest canyon in Europe. The Đurđevića Tara Bridge provides a unique view of the fast river and the surrounding nature. Let's not forget to mention the Zip Line- the most beautiful view of the bridge if you dare to "fly" from one side to the other.(not included) On the way back - panoramic ride on the edge of the Morača River Canyon.

Inclusions: Private transportation, All Fees and Taxes

Exclusions: Souvenirs, extra activities and food/snacks, Zip line
