Great day in Montenegro -touring & seeing monasteries - Our guide was very knowledgeable and generous with his time. He dove us around Montenegro's most notable highlights as well as to Ostrog & Cetinje monasteries. We did not go to Moraca monastery due to location and timing - it is practically impossible to achieve! We enjoyed local drinks & food while getting to know more about the capitol city as a bonus.
