What's included

What you'll see and do

1. Petrovac

   In total duration of this tour, it is included time spent in the transportation. From our meeting point, we arrive in Petrovac where we start our tour. In the 3rd century AD, the Romans built their summer villas on this lovely bay, so nowadays the mosaic floors of those villas can be seen in this beautiful little town. A calm walk along a beautiful, 600-meter-long sandy beach, with sights of diverse Mediterranean plants, cottages, villas and a 16th century Venetian Fortress with two islets off in the distance will be the start of this tour. We’ll climb a 16th -century fortress Castio, built by Venetians, which is located in the northern part of the beach. The upper part of Castio has a memorial plaque dedicated to the fallen soldiers of Montenegro during both World Wars. After the visit we'll continue with our journey.

3. Sveti Stefan

   After visiting the monasteries, we finally arrive at Montenegro’s most photographed site and the symbol of our Adriatic coast, a charming island called Sveti Stefan. The island, dating back to 15th century, is a fortified village connected to the mainland by a narrow passage. Today it is a part of luxurious Aman resort, off limits to all except paying guests. Renewed stone buildings house 51 rooms, cottages and suits on the island in a perfect harmony with the centuries of history. We can’t enter the island but we can admire it from the beachside or the nearby viewpoint. Not far from the island is arguably the most beautiful beach in Montengro, - Miločer or King’s beach, and it belongs to the Aman resort.

4. Budva

   Leaving Sveti Stefan behind us, we arrive in Budva, the country’s most visited destination. Thanks to its captivating Old Town, vibrant bars, Blue Flag beaches and busy night clubs, this town hosts about 300 000 tourists every summer. Nearby beaches such as Bečići, Pržno, Mogren, Kamenovo, Ploče can be crowded with sun-seeking families and tourists. The town has been settled since the 5th century BC and together we’ll see the Necropolis dating from this period and fortified Stari grad (Old Town) from medieval times. Braided streets and Venetian walls from 15th century surrounded by the clear sea is the main attraction of Budva. Due to the strong earthquake in 1979, the town has been completely rebuilt and now there are more shops, souvenirs, bars and restaurants than residencies.

5. Kotor

   From Budva, we arrive in Boka bay, in Kotor. Some call it the southernmost fjord of Europe or the submerged canyon, but either way it is a must-see place in Montenegro. Would you like to see a contrast of the blue sea, green hills, and black-grey steep mountains as you arrive in UNESCO World Heritage Kotor? Boka Bay is one of the Mediterranean’s most distinctive and striking landscapes. The fortified medieval city of Kotor is situated at the end of the Kotor Gulf within a triangular area bordered by the San Giovanni hill, the Adriatic Sea, the river Škurda and the Gurdić Well. Inside the 4km staunch walls, the medieval plan has for the most part remained unchanged; museums, squares, piazzetas faced by churches and noble palaces is something you’ll definitely admire. Lose yourself in narrow winding streets as you look at centuries-old buildings enjoying your lunch break and free time.

6. Our Lady of the Rocks

   From Kotor, we arrive in Perast. The most baroque town in Montenegro, situated at the foot of St.Elijah’s Hill, hummed with melancholy memories of the days when it was rich and powerful , Perast is a little town that boasts 16 churches, 17 noble palaces, and two beautiful little islands. On 22 July 1452, Our Lady of the Rocks was artificially created around a rock where the icon of the Madonna with Child was found. The island was made by accumulation of stone pieces and of old sunken ships loaded with stones around that rock. We can go on a short boat ride to see a magnificent church with the same name that was erected in 1630. Inside, there are baroque paintings, hundreds of silver votive tablets and a small museum where you’ll find the most unusual exhibit. It is a must feel experience, highly recommended from every tourist that visited Montenegro. From Perast, in 1:30 minutes ride (or less, depends on the meeting point), we arrive in our meeting point.
