Me and my husband travelled from Seattle and booked this tour with NINO. He’s one of the best tour guy we’ve ever experienced. He went above and beyond, he was on time for pickup, provided water. He took us to zeta lake, old bar, we did a little drive of down town Podgorica. Gave us lots of recommendations on where to eat. He took to a local bar that had some great coffee and my husband had some Loza for the first time and loved it. Nino is also very knowledgeable of the area, his car was very clean. We’re looking to travel back to Montenegro and will for sure book Nino.

Nino was well informed about what we saw. He gave lots of facts about the area, culture, traditions. I enjoyed the nature walk. I appreciated the stories about the history of Ostrog as we were climbing up. Saint Vasilije is now always with me. The Niagara Falls was amazing! The Doclea Archeological site was also amazing, a bucket list for me. Lunch at Konoba Svera was fabulous. Get the salmon-trout. Yummo! And pomegranate drink or their house red. They make both. Thank you Nino!

I came to Montenegro with a friend, only for a few days. We hit the jackpot when we got Nino as our guide. He is knowledgeable, interesting, fun and was interested in what we wanted to do . We saw Roman ruins, monasteries, art galleries, the most beautiful natural landscapes, and had the most delicious and memorable lunch by the river. I couldn’t recommend Nino more. We will definitely come back to Montenegro after that one amazing day Neeta and Carly

Nino was very knowledgable and an excellent driver. We also went a bit off schedule to check a few extra sites that interested me. 11/10!
