We had an amazing day on the Tara Montenegro Rafting Full Day Tour! The experience started with a hearty local breakfast to fuel us up, followed by getting fitted with all the necessary safety gear. After a scenic 1-hour drive to the starting point, we spent 3–4 hours descending the stunning, peaceful Tara River, with just the right amount of rapids to keep things exciting. One of the highlights was stopping at a cliff for an adrenaline-pumping jump into the crystal-clear water. Our guide, Drago, was fantastic, fun, knowledgeable, and always made us feel safe throughout the entire trip. The day finished with a delicious local meal of beef, a perfect way to end an unforgettable adventure. We would 100% recommend this tour and are already planning to come back and try one of the longer trips!

The rafting tour was really fun! We had Marjo as a guide who is really very friendly and experienced. We started with a delicious breakfast, then we were about 2 1/2 hours on the river. The tour is also suitable if you have no rafting experience - it will be bumpy and wet, but not overly dangerous. In addition, both a swim stop and a trip to a waterfall have made. Lunch afterwards was very delicious. We would definitely recommend it and also do it again immediately.
