“This trip to Montenegro was amazing and totally worth it! Our guide Davor was an excellent Tour Guide! We love History and he gave us an excellent tour from Dubrovnik to Kotor. The transportation was pristine and safe. We stopped for refreshments at a hip restaurant/bar along the Kotor Bay right before Perast. The view of Kotor Bay was AMAZING from this spot. Perast was also a cute town along the way. The boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks and entry required cash, which sadly we did not cary. Davor was very informative and patient the whole way. He showed us how not to get lost in Kotor.…”

“We had a great trip to majestic Montenegro. Marijo our tour guide is very informative and kind. He is a good driver and we felt safe with him. We left at 8 am and the the traffic and border crossings were reasonable compared to the reading I did about them during the high season. Regardless a private group is well worth the added cost to cut the border crossing time.
