5.00We got to tour through the beautiful Montenegran countryside, learn the fascinating history and enjoy the most delicious homemade meal courtesy of Drago. This was one of our favorite tours on our cruise and Drago’s hospitality is unsurpassed. Thank you all for a wonderful day!!

5.00This was a really unique way to see an array of Montenegro sites from 'jeep' cars (true cars, not exposed to the elements). We didn't see the old town which is the only part we missed; we spent about an hour climbing up the hills, making various stops for pictures and seeing historical sights along the way. The highlight for sure was Drago's homecooked feast at his family home - easily the best meal on our vacation.
Breathtaking views!!

5.00Dan was our driver for this wonderful experience in Bar, Montenegro! Dan was filled with colorful stories and lots of history as he drove us around this beautiful area. We thoroughly enjoyed his company! But by far the highlight of the day was Drago’s exceptional lunch! You will not be disappointed by his and his family’s culinary expertise! Everything was positively delicious. The entire day was beyond our expectations. Do not hesitate to book with Drago. He communicates well with his guests and is anxious to please!

5.00What a great experience. I really enjoyed learning about the history and culture of the Montenegrans. The traditional lunch was definitely the highlight of the tour. Drago was an exceptional host and an equally exceptional cook. Great food, shared in a family atmosphere.
Drago's cooking cant be beat!

5.00I booked this excursion because our cruise ship was stopping in Bar, Montenegro. I had so much fun, our driver Milan was so knowledgeable and passionate about his country. He told stories about its history and he took us to see the Old Olive Tree. And yes, I walked around it 3 times for good luck! Then we took an exhilarating ride up the mountain. Oh, the views!! It was beautiful. But the best part was Drago's lunch. It was a feast of slow cooked meat, vegetables, wine, pomegranate juice, local liqueur (my brain can't remember what it was called)...maybe I drank too much of it, lol. It was a great day and I highly recommend this trip.
Authentic and fun way of...
