This was our second tour this holiday with 360 Monte. And once again, we were guided by the excellent Slavko, a man of immense knowledge, wit and easy-going charm. Slavko first took us to Lovcen and the King’s mausoleum. Lovcen looked magical beneath a covering of unseasonal April snow and the views from the mausoleum were magnificent and well worth the climb. We then descended to the former royal city of Cetinje where Slavko took us on a brief and informative walking tour during which we learned some of the history of Montenegro’s old capital. Finally we drove across country to Lake Skadar for a picturesque boat ride. We had visited the lake on our previous tour but this time we set-off from a different location and experienced a new side of the lake’s beauty and charm. 360 Monte laid on a fantastic value-for-money tour that ran like clockwork. My wife and I would like to thank Slavko, Sara and all the 360 Monte staff for an excellent day out

Full description

• To reach the amazing views of the Bay of Kotor and conquer Lovćen Mountain we will take the Cable Car, overlooking the famous Old Austro-Hungarian serpentine road from 1884 offering spectacular views of Kotor and Tivat Bays - an unforgettable start to an amazing day!
• Enjoy breakfast in Njegusi village, best known as the birthplace of the Petrović dynasty, which ruled Montenegro from 1696 to 1918.
• The mausoleum sits at the top of a climb of 461 steps. The most impressive part of the mausoleum is the chapel which has 6 sides, and the beautiful ceiling covered with over 200,000 gilded tiles creating a fascinating mosaic.

• Then, enjoy a 1-hour walking tour through Cetinje, visiting its main sights, such as Cetinje Monastery where several relics are kept including the remains of St. Peter of Cetinje, particles of the True Cross, and the Icon of the Philermos Mother of God along with many more.
Discover museums, the royal theater, historic foreign embassies, and Vlaska Church, built in 1450, with its fence made out of barrels of captured enemy rifles.

The next stop is River Crnojevica, a small historical town in Central Montenegro on the ancient trading route through the country. It is worth visiting for both the lake and the old architecture left over from the trader days.
Our lunch break will be here and don't hesitate to try the local fish. Here, take a 1-hour boat ride along the river.
• Afterward, visit the viewpoint above St. Stefan island for a photo stop, before returning to Kotor.
