Mountain exploration with amazing Montenegro hospitality and food.

We would rate this as the best shore excursion tour we did during our Mediterranean cruise. I booked it online myself through Trip Advisor when our port was changed from Kotor to Bar. We liked the sound of the mountain experience and traditional lunch being included - rather than just exploring another city, as we both love exploring nature, and learning about other cultures and people. We were picked up as directed, and taken to an extremely old olive tree as our first stop. Then we had a guide...read more

Highlight of our holiday!

This was without a doubt the absolute highlight of our holiday! Drago and his friends gave us such a wonderful experience when we visited Montenegro. We had a super interesting and informative time with them and learned so much about Montenegrin culture and history. We visited local sights, beautiful olive groves, natural springs, and amazing vantage points in the mountains. To top it all off, we had an amazing dinner that Drago had cooked himself, along with homemade wine, juice, and rakija. Th...read more

Highlight of our trip

To say this was amazing is an understatement. The tour was informative and so much beauty, and then came the meal. It was outstanding and the host was so great. I would give 10 stars if I could!

I 100% recommend this excursion! And the food was so good! I loved it!

I LOVED THIS EXCURSION!!! I would recommend this to everyone! Our guide Milano was Wonderful! Very knowledgeable. And then, the food!!! ❤️❤️❤️ The home-made Montenegro meal was absolutely delicious! The length was just right. Our host, Drago, was fabulous and a very good cook. His family owns an olive grove and grape vines and pomegranate trees, so our meal was topped off with their own wine, pomegranate juice and olive oil. 5 star excursion.
