Whether you enjoy tasting local wine, watching colourful sunsets or trying local cuisine - Virpazar will accommodate your wishes. Take your time to explore this village and soak in the rustic charm of Montenegro's countryside.

We will verify your reservation vouchers, exchange them for tickets and guide you through the steps smoothly and hassle-free. After completing all the necessary formalities, we are ready to set sail and begin our adventure!
Virpazar
Join us inside our traditional wooden boat docked at the small Virpazar river pier. Prepare for beautiful views as you glide out of the channel, surrounded by the lake's rich vegetation. Admire the stunning mountain ranges of Albania - The Accursed Albanian Mountains and Vranjina, the nearest island, as they tower over one of Southern Europe's largest lakes. It's a magical journey where nature's beauty takes centre stage, and this is just the beginning!

4.00It wasn’t hard to find the location to pick up the tickets—parking was available just before the bridge, which made everything easier. The trip started right on time, and overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable experience. During the boat ride, the guide could have shared a bit more information, as the commentary was quite basic. That said, we still enjoyed ourselves. The welcome wine was a nice touch—and it turned into more than just a glass! Our family ended up sharing a whole bottle, which was a pleasant surprise 😅 We later found out that this isn’t always the case, but we appreciated the captain’s generosity and gave him a good tip. One of the highlights was when the captain stopped at a quiet spot where we could swim for about 15 minutes. It was a lovely experience and added something special to the trip.
Beautiful walk in a beautiful...
