Day Trip Montenegro

Augusto_P, Oct 2023

Our tour guides’ relentless effort to make our day trip visit to Montenegro a wonderful experience. Accommodating, friendly and sincere people in my opinion. Thanks to Tomi and Igor.

Thank you, Mr Augusto!

The never ending day

Susan_W, Oct 2023

Tomi was awful. He had a very thick accent and he mumbled. Very difficult to understand. He also seemed to have his own agenda. He requested a pick up at 9 instead of 8 which was fine. Then wanted to take us to a town in Bosnia. One person said yes and the rest of us said that wasn’t part of the tour. Off we went to Bosnia. We got there and saw a lovely new church that had a great overlook. He wanted to take us to old town and we said we thought this was nice but we really wanted to go to Kotor as we had planned. That made him angry and he said ‘it’s nice but not nice enough to spend a half an hour walking around old town.’ We insisted we go to Kotor. But first we stopped at a grocery store where he got water. He also bought something for himself to eat and we headed out. It took quite a while to get there. He made several stops to look at the view and one long enough for us to use the restroom. When I asked if we could just get to Kotor he very curtly replied that he’d like to keep to the original schedule since that is what we wanted. ‘Is that ok? And used my name in almost a threatening manner. We finally got to Kotor at 2 pm. He parked at a casino a few blocks from the main gate. We walked there and asked for a lunch break. He said he had a place in Budva he was taking us when we were through here. He took us on a tour through town that consisted of reading the plaques on the wall. We stopped in front of St Tryphon and I asked about the Saint that was there. He told me there wasn’t one….but there is. Another person in my party asked him a question about another church and he said ‘Do you have a problem learning? I have already answered that question.’ We were tired, hot and hungry and he allowed us 20 minutes after his tour to do what we wanted. At the end of our 20 minutes he took us back to the car via the top of the wall. When we got to the car he asked if we needed the restroom….we did not but he said he did. He left us in the hot parking lot. It was about 90 degrees. After 10 minutes I went into the casino to see what was going on. He was chatting with a bar maid while we were out sweating in the hot sun. On to Budva. We took the scenic route through an industrial park. Parked the car at a construction site and walked to his restaurant. It was actually quite nice and we were starving as it was now 5 pm. After dinner he wanted to walk us around old town, it was 6:30 pm and we wanted to go home. So we took a roundabout way back to the car. We got back to Dubrovnik at 9:30 pm. Why weren’t we more forceful in telling him what we wanted? - because he was quite intimidating. None of us can speak Croatian and we were not sure what his agenda was as it appeared he had one other than the tour we signed up for. While we saw some of what we wanted it was not an enjoyable day. I would not recommend him as a guide for anyone

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Hi Susan, i am afraid you misunderstood a few things offered to you ... extra stops (town in Bosnia and a few more places with a view wasn't for me,i am there every few days),complimentary(visiting a store,ferry ride ...),recommendations (place for a lunch,rest stops etc). I am responsibble for traffic conditions on the road and border crossing checkpoint as well,seems. Thanks,anyway. Tomi

Incredible Day Exploring Montenegro

Gina_K, Sep 2023

What an incredible experience! I booked this tour for my husband, my 2 kids (4 and 6) and my Sister in Law and her partner. We had heard good things about Montenegro so we were excited to check it out. Reading many reviews I had heard that the border crossing can be difficult and can take a long time. Leading up to the tour our guide Tomi was in communication and made arranging the final details easy. He is super knowledgeable about the area, from the history, culture, food, best little spots and knew when to hit the border and when to avoid it. Our family had the best time experiencing the beautiful sights and this is a MUST do if you are in Dubrovnik. The towns you stop at are STUNNING but it doesn't have the crazy crowds you get in Croatia - and it is more affordable for meals etc. Thank you Tomi for the most memorable tour!

Worst experience ever.

Randall_T, Aug 2023

Driver had car issues and was 1 hour late. He drove an unregistered car and we were stopped at the Montenegro border. The driver was fined 1,000 euros. Our passports were taken by the police and they would not release them back to us until he went to an ATM and came back to pay his fine. Worst experience ever. We never made it to the excursion due to all these issues. Tour was to start at 8:00 am. We were still at the border with police at 11:30 am.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

A number of unexpected circumstances occurred for this tour. My vehicle became disabled and i was able to secure a friend's vehicle as a replacement. I notified the couple that I would be one hour late. After meeting the couple and driving to the border check point, the vehicle was stopped for inspection for expired license. Since I had just borrowed this vehicle from my friend, I had no idea the license had expired. By the time I was able to obtain the 1000 euros, i agree that we were behind schedule. However, I offered to complete the tour for them. The couple informed me that they no longer wanted to continue the tour. I returned them as requested and provided a full refund. I did the best I could under the circumstances. Believe me when I say: " I too wish this tour would have gone as advertised and planned",
