All Budva Tours & Excursions in 2026

We booked this amazing experience through viator with no issues. Out of all our wonderful excursion that we did during our 10-day Mediterranean cruise, this was my favorite. The host was extremely communicative even before the experience making sure that the proper car seat was provided for our 4-year-old. He also provided very clear instructions on the meet up point, itinerary, and paths of communication which I very much appreciated. The day before, we were in communication to confirm details and to alert him that our cruise was delayed in leaving the previous port which would most likely cause a delay in our arrival at Bar. He was very responsive and assured me he would be monitoring and would make sure we would still be picked up even with a late arrival. Our arrival was about 2 hours late and he made sure there was someone there to pick us up exactly where he said they would be. Once we were all accounted for and began our excursion I knew we were in great hands and immediately relaxed and began to enjoy the beauty of Bar. I loved the fact that it was us and only one other family, so we were able to really get to know our tour guide and ask all the questions we wanted. Milan graciously answered all our questions and taught us so much about the history of Bar. We started at one of the world's oldest olive trees and learned all its rich history. We then were driven up to a beautiful olive tree grove and stopped for some refreshing and cool mountain water. The tour was at our pace, which was so relaxing and comforting. We stopped several times as we were making our way up the mountain to admire and take in the beautiful views. It truly was stunning. We finally arrived at our destination, which was our host’s beautiful mountain cabin. He and his crew had prepared a delicious meal of fresh meat, vegetables, bread, olive oil, and amazing cake. This meal was top 5 best meals of my life with an incredible view. In addition to all the food, we had Montenegrin wine (homemade by Drago!), fresh pomegranate juice and local beer. The wine was so good I brought a bottle home. He made sure our plates or glasses were never empty and it truly felt like we were having a beautiful family meal. We really got to know Drago, his crew, and the other family on the tour. We laughed, ate, and drank until our bellies could hold no more and then sadly we had to make our way back down the mountain and back to the cruise ship. I didn’t want our time to end. Milan made sure we were back to our ship safely and on time. Despite being on some small mountain roads, Milan navigated without any issues, and we knew we were in great hands. I don’t know when we will be back to Bar but if we ever are lucky enough to go back, I would absolutely book this excursion again. Not only was it fun, informative and leisurely but we felt like we had made new friends when we left. The people of Bar were so warm and were happy we were there and you could really feel that. I loved everything about this tour and was so glad that we booked it!

Beautiful scenery. Lovely stops. Herceg Novi and Kotor are so nice. The bay is just stunning. It was difficult to hear the guide on the boat though as it was just over a speaker so passengers just talked over him which I did mention to the captain. He just said it's different cultures etc. At Kotor I was given vague instructions on where to find the coach back to Budva (only because I asked) and it wasn't where we were told so we had to ring the company and be sent the map location. Not sure how we would have known otherwise, apparently other passengers weren't told either and just guessed/kept walking further than where we were told.

Our driver, Dragan, was very experienced with these roads. He was very polite and made sure we were all safe. I traveled by myself and as soon as got into the mini bus I was made very comfortable. The A/C was great and well needed. Plus with only 7 of us altogether we were able to talk to everyone. Dragan, told us all about our trip as we went and he stopped many times for us to take photos. We stopped in a small restaurant for lunch high up in the mountains with a great view, plus a lovely breeze on such a hot day. Dragan, explained all the menu, which was much needed. The food was lovely, although far too much, and the prices were very good. For sure if I ever do this trip again I will be asking for Dragan, (space class) to take me. Every euro was well worth paying for such a fantastic tour.
