About this experience
This tour perfectly combines natural beauties and cultural heritage of “Old Montenegro”. This region offers an abundance of spectacular natural beauties, famous viewing points, and rare forests with two national parks almost crossing their boundaries… The lookout at Pavlova strana provides the most beautiful view on the Skadar Lake, while the lookout above Boka Bay is frequently mentioned as one of the loveliest in the world. In addition, there is a view from “Montenegrin Olimp” – Lovcen Mountain, which is a home to the one of the highest mausoleum in the world. On our way through national park Lovcen we won't miss the chance to take a stroll through an amazing beech forest, breathe deeply the air from a famous air spa at Ivanova Korita. On our way back from the mountain we will go through the known village of Njegusi, and in the oldest cafe in the Montenegro we recommend you to taste far-known cheese & smoked ham. Very much recommended is boat ride down meanders of Crnojevica river

Amazing diverse tour of Montenegro.
I was only a few days in Montenegro, and I wanted to make them count. This tour did exactly that. The tour is very nicely balanced with a combination of natural, historical and urban sites. It was very comfortable and the guide Nino was amazing! With genuine interest for my interests and making sure that everything was well enjoyed he made this certainly one of the best tours I have been on! I 100% reccomend it.
Response from the operator: Thank you Jelmer! It was great to spend the day with you. See you! Cheers!

Super enjoyable day trip.
We had the most amazing and fun time exploring Montenegro with Nino. From the visit to the Mausoleum to the monastery and every spot in between, it was just the right combo of history, culture, nature for us. Nino is a careful driver and we felt like we were visiting with a friend. Highly recommend!!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much Silvia & Jeff! It was great pleasure to show you around and spend 2 days with you. All the best! Enjoy your traveling and living in Chattanooga! Cheers!

Private day trip to Skadar Lake National Park, Cetinje, Njeguši and Lovcen National Park
I had a fabulous day trip to several several attractions in one day in central Montenegro. The best part was the boat trip in Rijeka Crnojevića, which was spectacular because of the fabulous birds you can watch closely, including egrets, herons, cormorants and specially kingfishers. Cetinje is a well preserved city, with a serene atmosphere. The Cetinje monastery, where you can see beautiful icons and the right hand of St. John the Baptist, is specially worth visiting.
Response from the operator: Thank you Charles! It was pleasure to meet you and to chat with you! All the best!

Excellent tour! Enjoyed immensely!
Lovcen NP. And also all of Cetinje. Would've liked to have visited Skadar Lake NP. But overall, excellent tour. My guide, Marko, was very informative. Enjoyed our conversations very much. He is extremely knowledgeable!
Response from the operator: Thank you Roy! All the best!

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Podgorica.
How much does Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Podgorica usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Podgorica is not rushed.
Is Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Podgorica, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro?
+
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 Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro?
+
Around 3 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 Podgorica 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 Podgorica and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour- Skadar lake NP, Cetinje, Lovćen NP - The beauty of old Montenegro 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 Podgorica 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 Podgorica?
+
On Outty we rank every Podgorica experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best from our coast (Kotor bay, Budva, Sv Stefan, Skadar lake), Skadar Lake National Park Guided Boat Tour with Wooden Boat, GREAT MONTENEGRO TOUR Cetinje – Njeguši – Kotor – Budva. 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 Podgorica?
+
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 Podgorica?
+
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.
