Cetinje, Njeguši, Kotor and Budva Discovery

  • Depart as scheduled and drive to Cetinje - the old royal capital of Montenegro (duration: 1-2 hours, depending on the city of departure). Upon arrival in Cetinje, enjoy sightseeing in the city. See the Cetinje Monastery, Ćipuri Church, the former Njegoš residence - Biljarda, King Nikola's Museum, the Presidential Palace, the Royal Theater "Zeta House", and the monument of Ivan Crnojević, ruler of Zeta and founder of Cetinje (duration: 1 hour).

  • Drive towards Njeguši. Reach the village of Njeguši - the birthplace of Petar II Petrović Njegoš. The place is also known for its traditional prosciutto, homemade cheese, honey, and wine. Savour a tasting of traditional products (about 1 hour and 15 minutes).

  • Continue driving to the Lovćen Serpentine (duration: 1 hour and 20 minutes). Pause for photos along the road. According to legend, the designer Joseph Slade devoted this route to Princess Milena, so this part of the route is shaped like her initials.

  • Embark on Kotor city sightseeing: the Old Town, the Square of Arms, the Cathedral of St. Triphon, the Church of St. Luke, the Maritime Museum, and Cat Square.

    • Enjoy free time for food at one of the famous restaurants in town, shopping, or, for those who are more active, climbing the walls to the fortress of San Giovanni. The total free time in Kotor is 2 hours, so if you decide to climb the walls, you will need 45 minutes to 1 hour.

  • Drive to Budva (approx. 40 minutes). Go on a tour of Budva Old Town with its beautiful churches, squares, and citadel. Enjoy a walk through the winding streets and along the beautiful marina (about 1 hour).

  • Return to the starting point to end the tour.
