Mini Montenegro Tour

Overview

Embark on an unforgettable journey as you step off your ship at the port and meet your friendly driver. Your adventure begins with a scenic drive inland, peppered with two captivating photo stops. The first offers a breathtaking introduction to the Budva Riviera, while the second treats you to panoramic vistas of Budva, the coast, and St. Nicholas Island from a lofty vantage point. It’s the very same view that stirred Lord Byron to pen his poetic words: “At the birth of our planet, the most beautiful encounter of sea and land happened along the Montenegrin coastline.”.

Delve into Montenegro’s History at Cetinje

Next, we journey to Cetinje, the historic capital of Montenegro for over five centuries. Nestled amidst towering mountains, this city served as a bastion of protection against invaders throughout its storied past. Explore the legacy of the ruling dynasty, with a visit to the opulent palace of the last Montenegrin king, Nikola. With an hour of free time, immerse yourself in Cetinje’s vibrant culture and rich heritage. Discover why it’s affectionately known as the “town of museums, students, and linden trees.”.

Experience Authentic Montenegrin Village Life in Njegusi

Venture deeper into the mountains to uncover the charming village of Njegusi. Renowned for its plethora of churches and unique methods of ham and cheese production, this quaint settlement offers a glimpse into authentic Montenegrin life. Indulge your senses with a visit to a traditional smokehouse, savoring the distinctive flavors of local delicacies. Wander through stone-clad streets adorned with picturesque gardens, and immerse yourself in the warm embrace of village life.

Mesmerizing Views on the Return to Kotor
