All Podgorica Tours & Excursions in 2026

I had an incredible experience on the MONASTERY PRIVATE TOUR – Impressive Montenegrin Monasteries in Podgorica, and I can’t recommend it highly enough—especially with Tamara as a guide! From start to finish, the tour was beautifully organized and deeply enriching. Visiting the stunning Ostrog Monastery was truly unforgettable. Built into the sheer rock face, it’s not only breathtaking visually but also incredibly moving spiritually. Tamara shared fascinating historical insights and local stories that brought the monastery’s past and significance to life. We also explored Dajbabe Monastery, a hidden gem carved into a cave. The peaceful atmosphere and unique architecture made it a highlight of the day. Tamara’s knowledge of Montenegrin history, religion, and culture added so much depth to the experience. What made this tour exceptional was Tamara herself—professional, warm, and genuinely passionate about her country. She answered every question thoughtfully and made the day feel personal rather than rushed. Her attention to detail and friendly nature made the entire journey comfortable and memorable. If you’re visiting Montenegro and want a meaningful, well-guided exploration of its spiritual and historical treasures, this private monastery tour from Podgorica is an absolute must. Thank you, Tamara, for such a special day!

What an awesome day it was! The scenery was truly breathtaking. The monastery, perched high in the mountains was unearthly, comforting the soul, no matter what religion a visitor might confess. But all five stars go to Dragan, the amazing tour guide, who rendered the best service ever. His easy-going manner, communication skills and thorough knowledge made the day complete. I sincerely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Podgorica despite the length of the stay.

We had a private tour with Marko, who was both knowledgeable and genuinely funny. He tailored the itinerary to our interests, which made the whole experience feel personal and easy. The tour itself was very pleasant, though trying to cover a large part of the country in one go means there isn’t much time for stops. The mountain scenery was breathtaking, but Montenegro still lacks tourism infrastructure like roadside viewpoints. We missed plenty of photo opportunities simply because the roads were too narrow and the shoulders too low to pull over safely. That said, it was still a wonderful way to see a lot in a short time, and Marko made it engaging from start to finish.

The stunning locations of Kotor Bay, Budva, and Sveti Stefan offered breathtaking views and remarkable attractions, each steeped in rich history. However, the highlight of our journey was undoubtedly our guide, Dushan, whose efforts transformed our trip into an unforgettable experience. Dushan had a unique knack for bringing history to life. His engaging storytelling turned even the most mundane facts into captivating narratives. He is not only exceptionally knowledgeable about Montenegro—his beloved home country—but also well-versed in the broader region and global affairs. Conversations with Dushan were a true delight, providing insights on a wide range of topics. While the trip itself was extraordinary, it was Dushan who truly elevated the experience, making it both memorable and enlightening. Thank you, Dushan! We wish you best of luck! Asida and Raul.

The trip to the 2 Monasteries with our guide Petar was really enjoyable he made it so interesting we learnt not only about their history and the life of the monks and nuns but also about the history and people of Montenegro . We had plenty of time at each stop and were made to feel so welcome by the nun that showed us around , we enjoyed the home made Turkish delight she gave us and it was as so relaxing sitting in the garden talking to Petar and the other guest on the trip . The final stop to a viewpoint above Sveti Stefan was amazing at sunset with views to the island and Budva Bay . We thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it .

There is a lot of driving involved relative to the time spent at the main sights and the Tara Canyon was a little disappointing as all the books tell you it’s the second deepest in the world but the bridge is nowhere near the deepest part, which is essentially inaccessible to all but mountaineers. However, you do see a lot of the country. The reason for the five stars is our guide, Vladimir Markovic, who was excellent. As well as being a good guide with perfect English, he was a great travelling companion and we ended the trip as good friends.
