What To Expect
Durmitor National Park
Durmitor is the largest National Park in Montenegro, declared as the National park in 1952, and since 1980 is on the UNESCO list of the world natural and cultural heritage...
Durdevica Tara Bridge
The crown jewel of Durmitor National Park, the Tara River, carves through the landscape to create Europe's deepest canyon. This awe-inspiring natural wonder showcases Montenegro's unspoiled beauty at its finest. Standing as a testament to human ingenuity, the grandiose Đurđevića Tara Bridge spans the canyon, soaring over 150 meters above the emerald waters below. From this vantage point, you'll be treated to breathtaking panoramic views of the Tara River Canyon, an experience that leaves an indelible impression. For the adventurous, an optional zip-line ride across the canyon offers an exhilarating way to embrace this magnificent setting.

There is a lot of driving...

5.00There is a lot of driving involved relative to the time spent at the main sights and the Tara Canyon was a little disappointing as all the books tell you it’s the second deepest in the world but the bridge is nowhere near the deepest part, which is essentially inaccessible to all but mountaineers. However, you do see a lot of the country. The reason for the five stars is our guide, Vladimir Markovic, who was excellent. As well as being a good guide with perfect English, he was a great travelling companion and we ended the trip as good friends.

5.00The tour was amazing. With my wife we went on August 2024 and because we didn't have much time decided to do this tour to see the northern part of Montenegro. We were so pleased that our tour operators Vlad was eager to tell us lots about the montenegrin history, and he also showed us some place that since me and my wife are nature lovers we loved them. Such as the tara bridge (i did the zipline, my wife was afraid to do it), the black lake(an alpine lake that has a really beautiful restaurant and really good food). I recommend this tour to everyone, and don't forget to do the zipline for me was an extraordinary experience
Beautiful scenic tour

Durmitor National Park with Dimitrije

5.00We had an amazing trip with Dimitrije who took great care in taking us to all the beautiful places on this trip. Durmitor National Park and the trail walk was beautiful. Tara river spring and the places around it were beautiful. And rh pinacle of it all was when we bumped into the legend Novak Djokovic at the Tara river rafting place. He was such a gentleman allowing my wife the biggest fangirl moment of her times. All in all Dimiteije and his team is highly recommended and we will come back soon to visit other places with him.

5.00Our guide Dimittri was amazing. Enjoyed his knowledge and his conversation. He stopped at every pint to appreciate the scenery. The walk to Black Lake was off the beaten path which was so peaceful and beautiful. So many highlights seeing Tara springs, zip wire over Tara bridge/canyon, white water rafting. Black Lake was my favourite as absolutely breathtaking. Whole day was amazing to see the mountains and scenery away from coastline. Dimittri made the tour, fantastic transport and conversation. Highly recommend. Paul and Sam
