Es una excursión larga pero muy completa por el norte y te permite ver cosas que sin coche no podrías. En temporada alta cuesta 84 euros + 5 de la entrafa al parque Durmitor, lo cual se pone en casi 90 y me parece un picotazo. No me gustó que las paradas para desayunar y comer se hicieran en dos restaurantes concertados, porque habría preferido coger algo ligero y deambular por ahí en ese rato, pero es verdad que la comida estuvo buena. ¿Lo mejor? Nuestro guía Slavko, súper entretenido y majo. Translate this opinion into English.

It's a long but very comprehensive tour of the north, allowing you to see things you wouldn't be able to without a car. In high season, it costs €84 plus €5 for the entrance fee to Durmitor National Park, which brings the total to almost €90, and I think that's a bit steep. I didn't like that the stops for breakfast and lunch were at two pre-arranged restaurants, as I would have preferred to grab something light and wander around during that time, but the food was indeed good. The best part? Our guide, Slavko, was incredibly entertaining and friendly. Opinion translated. Show original.

Activitat de natura de mintanya. No vam poder anar al monestir per exces de gent i molt hàbilment van canvia la ruta cap l 'anell de Durmitor. Impresionant. Moltes gràcies Goran i Zuro Translate this opinion into English.

Mountain nature activity. We couldn't go to the monastery due to too many people and they very skillfully changed the route to the Durmitor ring. Impressive. Thank you very much Goran and Zuro Opinion translated. Show original.

Abbiamo prenotato questa escursione, che non costa poco , 95 euro a persona circa, e CI SIAMO TROVATI A FARNE UN’ALTRA in quanto al sabato non ti portano al monastero in quanto sembra ci sia troppo affollamento . Nessuno si è degnato di avvisarci ne’ a voce all’arrivo al luogo d’incontro-dove l’unica cosa è stata chiederci i soldi di entrata per il parco- , ne’ per iscritto. Non avrei mai fatto l’escursione se solo l’avessi saputo . State quindi attenti a non prenotarla il sabato.

We booked this excursion, which is not cheap, about 95 euros per person, and WE ENDED UP DOING ANOTHER one because on Saturdays they don't take you to the monastery as it seems there is too much crowding. No one bothered to inform us either verbally upon arrival at the meeting point—where the only thing was to ask us for the entrance fee for the park—or in writing. I would never have done the excursion if I had known. So be careful not to book it on Saturdays.

Tour ben organizzato e piacevole alla scoperta della natura, dei panorami mozzafiato e della storia del Montenegro. Slatvo, la nostra guida, è stato simpatico e ci ha trasmesso il suo legame con la sua cultura e il suo paese! Consigliatissimo! Translate this opinion into English.

Excursión muy interesante y divertida gracias a las explicaciones de Milos. Los paisajes son espectaculares, hacen varias paradas en diferentes miradores oara poder hacerse fotos. No se puede ir a Montenegro y no visitar el lago negro. El día que habíamos reservado no se podía ir al monasterio por una festividad y nos ofrecieron cambiar al Durmitor ring lo que fue un acierto total. Translate this opinion into English.

A very interesting and fun excursion thanks to Milos's explanations. The landscapes are spectacular, and they make several stops at different viewpoints for photo opportunities. You can't go to Montenegro without visiting the Black Lake. The day we had booked was not possible due to a holiday, so they offered to change us to the Durmitor Ring, which was a great idea.

The tour was excellent, and a must if you are in Montenegro. We saw many attractions and had time to explore and rest in between and had the chance to taste local food. The tour guide Vania was the perfect balance, knowledgable, funny, light touch, and just someone who made a 13 hr road trip very bearable. I also have to complement the driver who was very good and made us feel so comfortable. The walk/hikes were minimal we did 10,000 steps only so don’t be discouraged by the length of the trip.

Muy interesante, aunque el trayecto se termina haciendo un poco pesado al final. Nos ha gustado sobre todo el parque Durmitor y la visita al monasterio. El guía, Milo, es un personaje interesante: actor, escritor, director de teatro... Los embotellamientos a la vuelta a Kotor son lo único que borraría si pudiera. Translate this opinion into English.

Very interesting, although the journey ends up being a bit tiresome at the end. We especially enjoyed Durmitor Park and the visit to the monastery. The guide, Milo, is an interesting character: actor, writer, theater director... The traffic jams on the way back to Kotor are the only thing I'd skip if I could. Opinion translated. Show original.

If you are pushed for time in Montenegro and don't know where to go, this is the best way to get a blink of It. For us It was the perfect activity because we didn't have a car and stayed just three days in Kotor. Thanks to this, we visited amazing places in all around Montenegro. From throwing ourselves through a Zip line to swimming in the Black Lake, it was an unforgettable experience. Our guide was the best we've ever had, he knew all about the country and made It so interesting for us.

La actividad está muy bien planteada con muchas paradas para que el trayecto sea ameno. La guía que nos acompañó (Vania) de 10, contando un montón de historias y recomendaciones durante todo el día. La entrada al parque nacional debería estar incluida en el precio. Habíamos reservado la salida desde Budva y se olvidaron de venir a buscarnos. Lo solucionaron regalándonos un desayuno y ofreciéndonos la excursión al día siguiente. La organización es mejorable. Pero la experiencia muy recomendable Translate this opinion into English.

The activity is very well planned with many stops to make the journey enjoyable. The guide that accompanied us (Vania) was 10, telling a lot of stories and recommendations throughout the day. Entrance to the national park should be included in the price. We had booked the departure from Budva and they forgot to come pick us up. They solved it by giving us breakfast and offering us the excursion the next day. The organization can be improved. But the experience is highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad está muy bien, puedes ver en unas horas muchos lugares de Montenegro que no verías por libre, cruzando prácticamente todo el país. Vania fue muy agradable y resolvió los problemas con total amabilidad. Y el conductor del autobús está hecho un Fitipaldi, aún no sé cómo consiguió subir al monasterio de Ostrog por esas carreteras estrechas. Tal vez lo único a reseñar es el precio. Ni el desayuno ni la comida están incluidos. Por lo demás, todo perfecto. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity is very good, you can see in a few hours many places in Montenegro that you would not see on your own, crossing practically the entire country. Vania was very nice and solved the problems with total kindness. And the bus driver is a Fitipaldi, I still don't know how he managed to get to the Ostrog monastery on those narrow roads. Perhaps the only thing to review is the price. Neither breakfast nor lunch is included. Otherwise everything perfect. Opinion translated. Show original.

Conductor y guia bien. No paramos en Perast 15 min como indica la excursión, pasamos en bus de lejos, no llegué a verlo si quiera ya que estaba detrás en el bus, pensaba que iban a parar a la vuelta y nada. Una pena porque la excursión no es barata.

The driver and guide were excellent. We didn't stop in Perast for 15 minutes as indicated on the tour; we passed by on the bus from a distance. I didn't even see it because I was behind them on the bus. I thought they were going to stop on the way back, but nothing happened. It's a shame because the tour isn't cheap.
