The most amazing... - The most amazing experience we could’ve asked for! Petar is such an enthusiastic tour guide and showed us amazing places throughout the Montenegrin mountains. Lunch was delicious with fresh, home grown produce, over looking such a beautiful property (also includes some cute cats!). Such an interesting and gorgeous tour. Definitely a great way to see Montenegro through the locals ☺️

Once in a lifetime experience in family home - We had an amazing experience with Petra, he was an awesome tour guide and showed us parts of Budva we wouldn’t have seen ourselves (including an amazing view from the top of the mountain). We then headed to Darkos family home to have a beautiful dinner and lots of drinks (everything which was homemade from Darkos garden). This experience was a highlight of our stay in Budva. Couldn’t recommend this enough!

An Incredible Experience and a Genuine Welcome - Simply wow! What an incredible experience from start to finish and I can only endorse what previous reviewers have said. Petar our guide contacted us to arrange pick up and although we had opted for a pick up point away from our hotel, after a few WhatsApp exchanges he offered to come to our hotel which was great. We were soon heading up into the hills above Budva for visits to a former fort and active Monastery and some magnificent views. Petar told us a huge amount about Budva and Montenegro more generally and his passion was clear for his country. His background in tourism and his passion for providing a high quality experience was clear. Then it was onto Rajko's home for a wonderful experience. Rajko is a wonderful host and a truly lovely man. He opened his home to us and provided a delicious meal with his fantastic red wine from his own vineyards. The food was so fresh and natural, virtually all of it coming from his own gardens and his own air dried prosciutto. The peace and tranquility was fantastic and the conversation flowed almost as quickly as the wine!! If you want to escape the tourist crowds for a few hours, please take this opportunity and let Peter and Rajko show you a real taste of Montenegro. Tank you both for a wonderful welcome and a memorable evening

Delightful time all round - Had a delight time during this tour around and above Budva. Petar was very welcoming from the get go picking us up from our hotel. He explained the history of Montenegro and Budva. We stoped off at multiple view points and places that were breathtaking and interesting. To then end up being provided with a very hospitable host Rajko, that provided a beautiful selection of delights, toped off with delicious red wine and not forgetting the rakija that made for a wonderful evening with lovely company.

Unique Experience with Delicious Food and Gracious Hosts - I spent a week in Montenegro and this was easily my favorite tour. Petar is such a passionate and knowledgeable guide. He picked me up promptly from my hotel and then we were off into the hills (yes, the beaches in and around Budva are lovely but it’s truly special getting to spend time in hilltop villages). We stopped along the way to get photos at various viewpoints, did a 10 minute walk to a fort, visited a monastery, and then headed to Rajko’s home for lunch. Rajko is so welcoming and we enjoyed his homemade rakija and wine along with a wonderful meal fresh from his garden. This is truly a unique experience to spend time with locals, gain a better understanding of the culture, and sample some fresh products. I highly recommend it!

For those who wants to see real, traditional Montenegro. - Definitely one of the best things to experience in Budva. Every part of the trip was very exciting and unforgettable. Our guide told us a lot about Montenegro and Budva and that were informations you can't simply find on the Net. The dinner at Rajko's place was the cherry on top. He and his wife have a beautiful traditional house and garden and they welcome quests with open hands. All their organic products were delicious. I really think that Rajko produses the best prosciutto in Budva. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone who visits Budva.

Once in a lifetime experience - Had an absolutely amazing tour with Petrac, Rajco, and Zora! Petrac was super knowledgeable and friendly and picked us up at the hotel! He gave us a great tour full of history and background and took great pictures for my friend and I! Rajco and Zoe’s showed us the epitome of hospitality and shared a wonderful meal with us with what I think is one of the most beautiful views in the world! Thank you all for a great experience!
