Nice and recommended trip - Nice trip, we weren’t that many people compared to the size of the boat. 4 hours were perfect. 2 swimming stops, the water was impressively warm. The guide was friendly and not in a professional, I have to be friendly and happy, but in a true, real way. We got wine, water and juice to drink, and we could get as many cups as wanted, as long as there were more. We also got some pastry and made a stop to get some plants up from the water, which we could taste. Very nice trip.

Highly recommend Kingfisher boats, such a memorable tour - Such a special day. Baki the captain guided us through the most beautiful of scenery, pointing out wildlife as we went. We were so lucky to see so much wildlife including pelicans, eagles and a kingfisher. Baki was so friendly and spoke amazing English, thanks also for the delicious Montenegro donuts, cheese and honey and local wines. The national park and lake Skadar are just stunning, beautiful scenery you won't forget.

Absolute beauty and tranquility - Absolutely beautiful. We did the 4 hour cruise, was a little worried it may be too long but it wasn’t. It was such a relaxed trip and perfect for the incredible surroundings. Two lovely swimming spots, a toilet on the boat, great captain, free unlimited drinks (soft and wine) and lovely do-noughts with local cheese, olives and honey. It really was a perfect day out. Amazing value for money and a unique and beautiful place.

Kingfisher is the king cruise ! - During 4 hours, boat trip in the "Amazonia" Skandar lac. A lot a different bird species (for instance ibis) and possibility to swim 2 times into the lake. Captain and her assistant provides drink and food during the cruise. Additional comments around history from the crew would have been appreciated.
