Enjoyable trip with a lovely lunch. Host was friendly and made us feel very welcome. Communication before the tour was excellent and easy for cruise ship passengers to find the meeting point. Stopped at some lovely viewpoints and covered the main sights in Bar - although only saw Stari Bar from a distance. Recommended!

Our family of six had an amazing day on our excursion. Theodore and all the drivers were very knowledgeable and provided us with both a historical and personal perspective of Bar. Our lunch in the mountains at Drago’s home was a culinary experience that you don’t want to miss. We told him a head of time that our daughter is a vegetarian and he made a delicious dish for her as well. Your guides bring you to sites of Montenegro that are absolutely breathtaking. We highly recommend this tour!!! We look forward to visiting Montenegro again!

The tour was easy to find from our cruise. The tour guides were all informative. We got to see the beautiful mountains from different elevations. The meal at Drago’s house was so good! He was welcoming and shared about facts about Bar. We didn’t want to spend 4 hours on a bus going to and from Kotor and this worked for us. We went with our 14 and 11 year old and they were entertained too. The cars accommodated 4 plus the driver and they are mini SUV’s.
