This was a great tour - my friend and I had a lovely time. Our tour guide (whose name escapes me) was very knowledgeable, and gave great background to each town while we were driving to it, so that we could maximize our time in each. Our only complaint was that it was a VERY warm day, and the bus AC did not seem to be working well, meaning the trip back to Dubrovnik that evening was very warm, to the point of being uncomfortable.

Great tour! Kinda packs a lot into a single day. As long as youre ok with that you will enjoy.

The tour from Dubrovnik to Montenegro Kotor and Budva was disappointing for two reasons. First, The tour was given in two languages. That in itself is NOT a problem. Where it became a problem is when the English group outnumbering the second group 2:1 received less than half the guides information! When I broached the subject with the tour guide, her response was that she could not speak two languages at once. However, offering the English tour guests less than half the explaination the others received AND engaging in personal conversations with two of the other language group was off-setting. Secondly, Budva as a second destination to Kotor as part of the trip should be eliminated. More time should be spent in Kotor. Thats where the history, the beauty and interests lie.

Loved this tour and our guide. She was funny and energetic. Crossing the border can be rather time consuming, so be prepared to sit at the border between 30 minutes to an hour and a half. Kotor is beautiful! One thing that is different than the online description is that we didn't drive up the mountain for a beautiful view of Kotor. That road is under construction and has been closed to traffic for a long time. Instead, you get extra time in Budva. Budva is less enjoyable than Kotor. My recommendation: eat a late lunch in Budva that way you can maximize your time in Kotor!

Beautiful but 13 hour tour and day was more riding on a bus with no breaks than sights. The drive up mountains were amazing. Just toooooooooo long.

This was the first of our tours on this trip and it did not disappoint. Our time to get through the border was not too long but I gather it can be worse mid-season so we had a quite a lot of free time at Kotor. Our guide was Montenegrin and very informative about the independence of Montenegro and the customs and language of the people and their relationships to the countries around them. Once we left Kotor we were taken to a high spot where we could photograph Kotor and the surrounding area and then onto Budva which is very much a seaside resort town. We were advised where we could get a good meal and after seeing the old town which is quite small we had something to eat before heading back. It was a good day which we thoroughly enjoyed

It was great as the tour guide was friendly and worked hard to get everyone happy. He was using English and French to explain to us. Montenegro was nice!

A long day but well worth it. Montenegro was beautiful and so different to the scenery around Dubrovnik. Cator is an amazing city with so many winding streets to explore and the stunning mountain backdrop. Budva was less interesting, though what remains of the old town is lovely. Great thanks to our guide who was very knowledgeable yet gave us lots of freedom to explore on our own. Recommended!

We probably expected too much. Bay of Kotor is spectacular. The town is okay! We climbed uptill the fortress overlooking the old town. The trek was amazing! We loved Budva more somehow. It is better kept._br/_ Evana was a gracious, sweet, kind and knowledgeable guide. Would help if they would help us with a guide at kotor.

This was really a road trip through beautiful landscapes rather than just a trip to Montenegro. Kotor lived up to it's reputation and Budva was quaint at it's heart if not entirely dwarfed by the new town.

Quality of stops poor. We could have used the restaurants on the walk through a local village. So we have been to Montenegro, an extra day in Dubrovnic would be better value.

It's a long day but well worth it.

Our guide Maria was caring, kind and helpful. She took care of us especially when we left and entered the boarders._br/_ Montenegro was stunning and we had enough time to hang around the Old Town. It was a great tour and could experience something special other than in Croatia.
Review by: jacques T, October 2017
Well organised, interesting and fantastic landscapes. The bus needs about one hour to get through the customs both ways, so take a book with you!
Review by: richard f, October 2017
Kotor and Budva was good stops. the guide could have been better explaining Montenegro, culture, war, people,etc. Long day and border crossing very time consuming.
Review by: Vincent C, October 2017
Great day out for us and our 4 year old daughter. Ivana from Elite Travel was a fantastic guide._br/_ Would definitely recommend this trip to others.
