Great trip - Great trip with Hakija. Lovely scenery and interesting sights; glad we didn’t have to drive the mountain roads ourselves! Plus a delicious recommended lunch spot.

Without doubt one of th most breath taking day trips experienced - Our trip was absolutely fantastic. We had a wonderful day from start to finish. Andro was very knowledgeable with the history of Montenegro and surrounding countries. The route was well planned and he knew exactly where to stop for breath taking viewpoints. We stopped at the Belvedere restaurant for lunch. The food was delicious and it had the most amazing panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. We could not fault our day, it is one we will never forget.

Jaw dropping views and lake boat ride - Excellent day out and on a good weather day too. Great stops for some amazing photos. The lake boat trip was enjoyable and relaxing. Good chance to see various bird species as well as the views of the nearby hills and mountains in the distance. Best part was the ride up the mountain side and stops to see the incredible views. The lunch stop was also in a dramatic setting. Enjoyable food. The stop at the monastery in the ancient capital was nothing much after what we had seen but was ok. Then a drive down the mountain roads to Kotor. We stopped along the way to get jaw dropping views of the Kotor area and the beautiful blue waters of the sea inlet that resembles another lake. This was the best view for me. Then back to Budva. Good amount outside the minivan. If you do one trip here then this is it. Weather will help but views still just incredible.

Lake Skadar, P Strana and Cetinje tour - Petar was our guide, very knowledgeable and helpful. He went out of the way to show us the Niagara waterfalls accommodating our request. He took many family photos for us. Petar was very pleasant and an excellent guide. It was an an enjoyable tour with lovely sights and would recommend Petar and his company.

BEST TOUR EVER! - Highly recommend this tour company to anyone interested in experiencing the Balkans with true experts. Andrija and Petar went above and beyond to ensure my friends group enjoys the national parks, nature, history and food of Montenegro. They created the best itineraries and were thoughtful about all requested accommodation. They are so warm and flexible - by the end of the trip we felt that we were being shown around by our very knowledgeable friends!

Amazing way to see Montenegro - Andro was a wonderful tour guide and this day trip was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Montenegro. As two people who had never visited Montenegro before, this tour was a great way to acquaint ourselves with the country and its history, politics and culture. One of the highlights for us was the boat trip on Lake Skadar which was breathtakingly beautiful. Andro was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions we had and provide recommendations. Because this is a private tour, you have the flexibility to request additional stops not listed on the itinerary. For that reason, I would recommend thinking about any particular locations you would like to visit other than those listed on the suggested schedule.

Absolutely Phenomenal. - Absolutely phenomenal tour. Lake Skadar took my breath away. The guide used the old roads and the views, My God the views. He found great spots to stop so I could take it all in. I customised my trip slightly and did Lipa Cave too which was incredible. I highly recommend Andro, Petar and the rest of the team. Great knowledgeable guides.

Memorable experience - As a solo traveller, I couldn't be happier with the experience. Our driver, Petar, was an absolute gem - not only was he lovely and kind, but his knowledge about the area was impressive. He enthusiastically shared fascinating facts about every place we visited, adding so much depth to our journey. The boat ride on Lake Skadar was a highlight for me. It was incredibly relaxing and peaceful, surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of the lake. There's something truly special about being on the water that soothes the soul. Our time in the old capital, Cetinje, felt too short, as I was intrigued by the museum there. Petar ensured we made the most of our time, even though we had limited hours. The stop at a lovely restaurant recommended by Petar. The food was not only delicious but also hearty and affordable. Petar's offered to take me to the zip line when we both had some extra time after the tour, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Overall, my experience in Montenegro was made all the more memorable by the warmth and hospitality of its people, exemplified by Petar. I can't wait to return and explore more of this beautiful country.
