Danilo and the driver did a fantastic job with this tour. It was customized with our time line. He was very knowledgeable and his English was excellent. If in Kotor for only a day, this was a great way to see all the highlights ahead of the bus crowds. We were traveling with an older couple and Danilo was very helpful and accommodating. Drop offs near entrances and even a golf cart shuttle to the boat transfer in Perast. 5 stars!!!
Dear Jacob, Thanks for nice comments. It was really our pleasure to show you great monasteries in combination of Boka Bay, to fit in your time and to customize tour according to your wishes. Hope we will see again! Warm greetings from Monte Mare Travel Team!
Our guide was very knowledgeable and generous with his time. He dove us around Montenegro's most notable highlights as well as to Ostrog & Cetinje monasteries. We did not go to Moraca monastery due to location and timing - it is practically impossible to achieve! We enjoyed local drinks & food while getting to know more about the capitol city as a bonus.
