Dubrovnik Trip Overview
With a population of a larger European city suburb (650.000), Montenegro is an enchanting little country full of extreme geographical diversities.
Great mountains with snow peaks, steep fiord-like hills almost vertically diving into the Adriatic Sea, mountain lakes full of fish, mystical monasteries carved in the solid rock, sandy and sunny beaches that go on for miles alongside the coast. That is all Montenegro.
Our guides are all experienced professionals with years of experience touring through this area so they know all the best spots to stop but most importantly they present and explain the history, politics, people, customs, and food of Montenegro in a fun and informative way.
We want you to feel relaxed on our tour, and let us worry about borders, ferries, and traffic jams, and we tailor each of our tour so that we spend most time in destinations rather than in traffic or on border crossings.
We hope you join us on this tour, since Montenegro awaits you!!!
