Black Lake and Canyon Full Day Trip
Positives: Good value for money for such a long trip. Lot of pick up location options available. Covers many Montenegro tourist attractions in one day. Negatives: We did not go to Durdevica Tara bridge as you see it in the pictures. Instead we stopped at a zip lining location. 12 out of 75 people decided to zip line and the rest had to wait 40 mins for others to finish. It was a double decker bus as it was a large group and it got really hot inside (travel time August). The lunch stop was rubbish and the food was below average (quality of cooking was poor, no issues with hygiene, service or cleanliness).

Disappointing tour but beautiful views
This tour should not be available to a full bus load of people as only the people who sit on the right side of the bus can see the views. We sat on the left and saw nothing, the tour guide even said this at the start. Make sure you pack food and snacks as throughout the day the food stops were not adequate. The “breakfast stop” was not sustainable, it was €3 for a soggy sausage roll looking pastry which had flies around. This was the only food available here. At the same stop the toilet cost €1 and the paper towels were rationed to one square per person. Our tour guide gave us strict instructions to be on the bus at specific times which is fine except for him being 5/10 minutes late at three of the stops. Our tour guide did name out the attractions we passed and visited however he gave us no other history or information about the sites which was disappointing. The lunch stop was nice however the tour guide insisted this was the only place we could eat when there were other food stops on the way with more options. When we arrived at the second national park, the tour guide warned us to keep our tickets safe or else we would be buying new ones if we could not produce them. When we lined up to show the ticket office our tickets as instructed by the tour guide, he then said not everyone needs to show their tickets and told us all to move along we were holding up the queue. It was very confusing. The final food stop, our “dinner” was a petrol station and toilet break where the workers told us we could not buy anything for 15 minutes and they were filling the pumps. However the tour guide only gave us ten minutes total at this stop and rushed us all back on even though we all left empty handed and starving on hour 13/15. Only one sustainable meal was provided for us for a 15 hour day. The sights and national parks we did stop at were beautiful and Montenegro is a beautiful country. However, this tour could be much better organised with better food stops and information. The tour was also 15 hours not 13 as stated and this was not mentioned to us until we were already on the bus in the morning. The bus driver did a great job keeping us safe on the small winding roads, however he was on his phone all day while driving. A great tour concept but can be much improved!!

Excellent service
I had an amazing experience on the Black Lake and Tara Canyon tour. The bus was modern, comfortable, and perfectly clean, making the journey very enjoyable. Our licensed guide was outstanding—professional, knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English. They shared fascinating stories and interesting facts throughout the trip, making every stop even more memorable. The scenery at Black Lake and Tara Canyon was absolutely breathtaking, and the entire tour was very well organized from start to finish. Everything ran smoothly and on time. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montenegro. It was a perfect day with excellent service, beautiful landscapes, and a fantastic guide. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Budva.
How much does Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara cost?
+
Prices start at $82 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Budva usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara take?
+
Plan for about 13 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Budva is not rushed.
Is Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Budva, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 13-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Budva can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Budva and add a light layer if any part of the 13-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Black lake , Durmitor, Djurdjevića Tara bridge, Canyon Tara start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Budva within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Budva?
+
On Outty we rank every Budva experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Great Montenegro Tour-Lovcen NP,Mausoleum Lovcen,River of Crnojevic,Sveti Stefan, North Montenegro, Durmitor, Tara & Ostrog Tour, Lipa Cave Guided Tour & Train Ride. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Budva?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Budva?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
