Tips
Virpazar
Venture on a peaceful and stunning journey into the beauty of Lake Skadar by starting your sightseeing cruise in the delightful fishing village of Virpazar. Depart from the village harbour and glide down a tranquil river canal, surrounded by swaying reeds and willows, fully immersing yourself in the region's natural splendour. Situated on the shores of Lake Skadar in Montenegro, Virpazar is a picturesque village surrounded by stunning mountain ranges, lush green forests, and crystal-clear waters. Its scenic boat tours, traditional cuisine, and rustic architecture make it a popular destination. Bird watching, hiking, and wine tasting are popular activities, as it is located in the heart of Montenegro's wine region. This charming destination is perfect for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in the natural beauty and tranquillity of the Montenegrin countryside.
Vranjina
As you exit the tranquil river canal, you will be greeted with a breathtaking sight of the distant Albanian Alps and Vranjina Island. The island stands proudly, emerging from the sparkling waters of Lake Skadar, which is one of the largest lakes in Southern Europe. The view is magnificent, with the mountains towering in the distance and the island's beauty adding to the stunning natural landscape. Take a moment to fully appreciate the view before continuing on your sightseeing cruise, as this vista is one of the highlights of the Lake Skadar experience.

During 4 hours, boat trip in the "Amazonia" Skandar lac. A lot a different bird species (for instance ibis) and possibility to swim 2 times into the lake. Captain and her assistant provides drink and food during the cruise. Additional comments around history from the crew would have been appreciated.

Beautiful scenery a must if you are in the area. Our driver was great with lots of local knowledge. Download the Merlin Bird ID App (free) to tell you about the birds. We had a private tour which was great so we could get in and swim as a family but I did think it was a little pricey at €170

My husband and I booked a private 4 hour boat tour of Lake Skadar with Kingfisher. The lake is incredibly beautiful with the lily pads, surrounding mountains and countless species of birds and is definitely a must see when you're in Montenegro! Our guide Ilija (I apologize if that is misspelled) was so friendly and knowledgeable of the area and had many interesting stories to share. Delicious pastries, honey, wine, and raki were provided. What a relaxing afternoon! Highly recommended!
