On top! - We took a private excursion of 2 hours. The whole crew is smiling is nice. A small Breton flag always makes its effect:) The captain of the tour was really nice. He takes his time to explain things, is interested in you. Possibility to drink something (water, juice, wine) previously chilled. Possibility to swim in a specific place. The local wildlife is preserved and really pretty. It is quiet and relaxing away from the tumult of the coast. Maeva speaks French and that is a big plus. She took her time to explain some things about the country. A pleasure to have smile here;)

Amazing Boat Tour on Lake Skadar - Amazing boat tour on the beautiful lake Skadar. Petar was an awesome skipper and guide. The boat was comfortable and clean. We had cold drinks and tasty local food. Petar took us through beautiful canals, the open lake. We stopped to swim multiple times. Everything was perfect. One of the best day trips in Montenegro. I highly recommend it.
