Beautiful Lake Skadar
We had a great tour with Mića! Lake Skadar was absolutely stunning, if you take this tour definitely opt for the boat trip! It was one of the highlights of our holiday. Stari Bar was very interesting with beautiful views, we also stopped and had a lovely lunch there. Mića was a great guide, letting us set the pace of the visit and giving us lots of information. Highly recommended. Just a heads up that our tour did not include any time in Bar and also did not include the entrance fee for Stari Bar (we paid that ourselves). Also it's worth noting that the vehicle was a four door saloon which for four 6 foot adults plus a guide was a bit snug at times!

Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Budva.
How much does Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar cost?
+
Prices start at $85 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 Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar?
+
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 Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar?
+
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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Old Town Bar seaside-Np Skadar Lake(boat cruise)-Village Virpazar 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, Budva Bay: Kayak & SUP Tour to Coastal Caves, North Montenegro, Durmitor, Tara & Ostrog Tour. 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.
