You can’t visit Montenegro without getting acquainted with the history and traditions of this region. On this trip you will learn about the history of the state, visit its ancient capital, and visit a traditional village where local “prosciutto” and “homemade cheese” are made. You will also see an unforgettable panorama of the Bay of Kotor from a bird's eye view and the pearl of architecture in Montenegro - the medieval city of Kotor and the Lipa Cave. You can't miss this!

The tour will start in the morning at 9.00. Don't forget to take warm clothes: the air temperature on the coast and in the mountains can differ significantly. Comfortable shoes and some clothes to cover your shoulders and legs, since you will be visiting a monastery.

This route passes along high-altitude (but safe) roads, from where stunning panoramas of the Budva Riviera and the Bay of Kotor open.

The first stop will be a sightseeing at an altitude of 850 meters above sea level on Mount Braichi, where a magnificent view of the Budva Riviera, the sea and the island of St. Nicholas!

Then the path will continue to the ancient capital of Montenegro - Cetinje. A little before reaching the city, we will park in the mountains, where we will visit our first destination - the Lipa Cave.

From here we will get to it on a fun tourist train. In front of the entrance there will be an incredible view of Lake Skadar and the majestic peaks of the Kučki Mountains.

At the entrance to the cave, friendly, professional guides await us and will accompany us during the walk. The adventure begins in a long tunnel that leads us to the underground kingdom. Here you will feel gusts of cold wind and a sharp change in air temperature - in the cave the temperature stays within 8-12 degrees all year round.

We will walk a distance of 400 meters through the main tunnel of the Lipa Cave, where you will see untouched natural beauty. During a detailed examination of the various shapes of the cave walls, we will be able to feel the full power of this natural creation. Next we will go to the Njegus Hall, where we can plunge into the true darkness of the cave and see the most beautiful stalactites. If it rains, we will be able to enjoy the waterfall filling the space underneath with water. We will also be able to witness the “love story” of stalactites and stalagmites, which reach each other for thousands of years and, when they finally merge together, form an inseparable whole, which experts call a stalagnate.

Then the path will continue to the ancient capital of Montenegro - Cetinje.

During a walking tour of the city of Cetinje, the old capital of Montenegro, you will get acquainted with the history of the city, which dates back to the 15th century. You will be pleasantly surprised by a huge number of attractions: the Palace of Prince Nikola, the Blue Palace, the State Museum, the Vlas Church of the 15th century with a fence made of the barrels of two thousand guns and many more interesting things. Visiting museums (optional).

After the walk, we will visit the Cetinje Monastery. It is rich in history and preserves the Hand of St. John the Baptist - three fingers who baptized Jesus Christ, a piece of the life-giving cross of the Lord on which Jesus Christ was crucified and the relics of Peter of Cetinje - the founder of the monastery. If you have crosses on your body and everything you buy in the monastery shop, be sure to consecrate it on the holy relics by venerating them. As in Ostrog, you can also light candles here and write notes for your health and peace. The Cetinje Monastery is the center of the Montenegrin metropolis for the entire Serbian-Montenegrin Orthodoxy.

After a long stop in Cetinje, we will travel 22 km through incredibly beautiful places called the “Stone Sea of Montenegro” and rise even higher towards the ancient mountain village of Njegusi - the birthplace of the Petrovich dynasty. This village is famous for its delicacies, such as pršut - smoked pork ham, Njeguš cheese and delicious mead and rakia, and if you like it, you can take a couple of legs with you.. During the excursion, stop in the village for tasting, purchasing local specialties and souvenirs. And also a separate time for lunch.

After lunch we continue our journey towards the sea along a unique serpentine road with 25 turns, called the “Cattaro staircase” due to the steepness of the climb, built by the Austrians, which leads to the Bay of Kotor and the city of Kotor. The elevation difference is 1000 m. The road offers a magnificent view of Bokokotor Bay.

Let's go downto sea level where a walking tour of the city awaits. Kotor is a real treasury of medieval history and culture. Walking through the intricate labyrinth of narrow streets, through the most hidden alleys, you will see places that are not shown on regular tours. See the chambers of aristocratic families, hear the story of St. Tryphon - the patron saint of the city and see the Cathedral of St. Tryphon (1166) - the oldest operating temple in the Eastern Adriatic, as well as the unique 12th century church of St. Luke - one of the apostles of Jesus Christ, which has survived to this day!

You will also have some free time for an independent walk around the city, sit in local restaurants to drink soft drinks and simply buy various souvenirs for yourself and your family!

Numerous photo stops and a lunch break are planned throughout the route. Lunch is provided in a national restaurant with famous local food: Lamb from Pod Sachem, grilled trout, dried meat, prosciutto, cheese, chorby (local soups), kajmak, Shopska salad, young red wine and much more to your taste and choice!

We return back around 18.00 in the evening. This excursion is not tiring and is ideal for families with children, lovers of history, sea and mountain landscapes.

All excursions are conducted only with a Russian-speaking, experienced, licensed guide!
