    The places that the guide took me were exceptional. The guide was very very knowledgeable and made me feel as if I was a local. We had a great meal at the end and had fresh figs, pomegranates and other berries. Such a memorable trip

    Thank you Lourdes! We are happy to hear that:) Thanks for all the inspiring stories you've shared with us. Wish you all the best!

    Good day to enjoy.

    Amazing views of a different part of montenegro and our guide was very helpful and informative. Very considerate and checking everything was okay. We enjoyed the monastery and views of lake and visit to Montenegrin family. Nice cake, wine, juice. Only criticism would be that some more walking in the beautiful nature park and along the river would make it even better. Such a calm peaceful area and we were yearning to do a good walk.

    Response from Host, Feb 2023

    Thank you for the kind words and suggestion. We are always in the mood for more walks, but sometimes it is not easy to fit it into the program and the desire is maybe not clearly expressed. Thank you again for understanding, wish you all the best!

    Amazing private tour and experience.

    Nino was a wonderful guide whilst I was on my solo travelling in Montenegro and made it much more authentic even during the stormy weather of that particular day. Nature park Zeta especially, is an amazing sight and a lovely part was Nino taking me to visit his parents house who happen to live within the park and being able to try some of their homemade wine and dried figs. Nino is very knowledgeable with the history, geography and religious aspects of Montenegro which was great to learn about. One of the best experiences and private tours i’ve been on.

    Response from Host, Nov 2022

    Thank you Georgia, have a good time in Manchester. Cheers!

    Beautiful nature, Roman ruins, fresh air, warm hospitality

    Laura_H, Oct 2022
    Difficult to choose just one favorite thing, considering all that was included! Today I saw the clearest water I have ever seen cascading down a natural waterfall. I had fresh, homemade pomegranate juice at a local village as a guest in a home. I saw one of the most visited Orthodox monasteries in the region, and I walked through an ancient Roman settlement. It was an amazing day in a beautiful setting!

    Thank you Laura very much for being a great company!

    Great Tour of Central Montenegro

    MARK_P, Jul 2022
    The private tour of Ostrog Monastery, Doclea, and Nature Park Zeta by Natour Montenegro Travel Agency was exceptional and a great way to see important sites in central Montenegro. My driver/guide, Nino, picked me up at my hotel in Podgorica on time in his clean and comfortable car and delivered me to my next hotel at the end of the day. Nino is very knowledgeable about Montenegro's history, geography, culture, politics, and food, etc., and was very flexible and accommodating. He always stopped when I wanted to take pictures along the way and provided me with water during the record heat wave. Nino was able to answer all of my many questions, particularly about the Roman ruins at Doclea and the Ostrog Monastery. Nino was considerate when we climbed up the hundreds of rock-carved steps to the Ostrog Monastery, stopping periodically for a rest and ensuring that I drank plenty of water in the heat and at high altitude. A special treat was meeting Nino's parents, who live in the Nature Park Zeta, where I enjoyed home-made pomegranate juice, local red wine, and dates. He stopped for lunch along the Zeta River, where we ate grilled trout that had been freshly caught. Nino also made a couple of additional stops at my request to visit the Orthodox Cathedral of Christ's Resurrection in Podgorica and the dramatic Nijagara Waterfall. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting these important sites in central Montenegro.
