A wonderful and adventurous day - A day full of breathtaking views, good food, and fascinating information.
Our guide was Slavko. He loves his job, his country, and his family, and all this is reflected in his humorous stories.
The bus was comfortable and air-conditioned, with enough stops for stretching your legs, taking photos, enjoying the views, and eating.

Must do tour - Lucky for us, we had the great tour director, Slavko, again and again had a wonderful experience. The scenery and nature are fantastic but Slavko also makes it come alive with his telling the history and stories that go along with it! Truest one of the best tour directors!

Great experience - Definitely worth it! Our guide Molish is amazing! Although it's a long trip and most of the time was on the road, the minivan is very comfortable. We really want to come back to Montenegro in the future to try rafting on Tara!

The Gems of North Montenegro 🇲🇪 - The Gems of North Montenegro 🇲🇪:
1. Hike through pristine forests to reach the glacial Black Lake, a jewel nestled in Durmitor's crown.
2. Navigate the dramatic twists and turns of the Tara River Canyon, Europe's deepest.
3. Witness breathtaking panoramas and encounter a diverse range of wildlife.
A big shout out to Nina and Zuki from @360_monte Team to guide us in this adventure.
As it was the Easter weekend, the Ostrog Monastery was closed for the trip and they communicated early on 2 days before and instead they took us to the true North in the mountains and it was worth it.
We loved it and would highly recommend.

Lots to see but too hetic - This is a great opportunity to see lots of important and interesting bits of Montenegro. Breakfast and lunch stops delightful but the minibus ride was nail biting with driving standards well below those considered in EU countries. Guide was excellent. I thought 13 hours is too long considering so much of it is spent in the bus. Not for the nervous passenger.

Great tour which covers a lot - It was a long day but we covered a lot and the journey throughout the day was broken down with different activities. We had great weather and really enjoyed the lake and the Ostrog monestry. Milos was very helpful, engaging and knowledgeable.
