A fantastic day trip that I would definitely recommend! - Fantastic trip, the Black Lake in the Durmitor National Park was beautiful, and it was a lovely walk around through forest and along the lake edge.
The zip line at Tara Bridge was amazing, and there was plenty of time to walk across the bridge too.
The restaurants were both excellent and the organisation was superb so meals were ready when we arrived.
The final part of the day visiting the Ostrog Orthodox Monastery was very interesting to see.
Thank you to our guide, Milos, your enthusiasm, sense of humour and fabulous knowledge kept our group entertained all day.

Great experience and an incredible amount of sightseeing squeezed into one day if your time in Montenegro is limited. - Really well-organised and enjoyable tour, well worth the money!
Our guide Milos was incredible - had a broad knowledge about everything we could think of asking about, and made our experience all the more fun.
We enjoyed all the stops, including breakfast and lunch - which was local and delicious.
We only had 1 full day in the country, so this was by far the best way to see as much as possible in that time.
Would really recommend!

Recommended - Long day, full of impressions and information. Well planned, enjoyable. Nature beauty of Tara and Black Lake was breathtaking and the highlight of the day- tour to Ostrog monastery via narrow mountain road and visit.

Fun, well organised tour.... - Fun, well organised tour. We got to see so much of North Montenegro in one day, amazing scenery. Very accommodating with pickup/drop off. Great food at breakfast and lunch. Give it a go if you are staying around Kotor and fancy a change from the beaches for a day!

Amazing tour and the best guide Igor! - This was the best tour ever! The views are just amazing. But most importantly, our guide Igor - absolutely five star rating! He was very engaging, kind, helpful, always kept us interested and also gave us breaks when we needed them! He also has the best jokes!
I left my phone on the bus and had to disturb Igor late in the evening after the tour ended, but he was so sweet and kind and helped me recover it before my flight next day. Thank you, I really appreciate it 🙏

Good day worth spent - It’s a good day trip taking from the coast to far inland in the country. We did it in early July a hot summer day, but you do nut feel it when inside the coach. Guide Vani was excellent and gave us lots if useful info about the country’ history politics particularly why they wanted 55% majority for independence and MN Logon- easy going attitude, local matters and all about food and everything you wanted know.

North Montenegro - North Montenegro was absolutely beautiful! We stayed in Montenegro for 12 days and I would highly recommend taking a trip up to see what the north has to offer. Our tour guide Nina was fantastic! She shared information throughout the tour about the culture in Montenegro and about the beautiful sites in the north. As a local she could answer any questions you had about her beautiful country! We also stopped in 2 restaurants along the way. One for breakfast and one for lunch. The food was pre-ordered on the bus and tables were reserved for us in these restaurants which was an excellent idea

Fun North Montenegro Discovery! - What a great it was to go and discover North Montenegro! Simply, it's "beautiful!" The Tara River and Bridge, and the Black Lake, and best of all, the Ostrog Monastery! WOW! Also, the breakfast was great (not "just good", but truly great!) And finally, Igor, our tour guide, was amazing with his energy, his enthusiasm, and his knowledge of Montenegro's history and evolution, and his ability to "go short" if we did not have much time, or "go with a lot of explanations" if we had plenty of time, all of this with a great sense of humor and "happiness with his job!" He is GREAT! He teamed up beautifully with our great driver "Dragun" (??) who managed to drive a lot in one day with not even one glitch! Perfect Day!!!
