What awaits you

Are you ready for an unforgettable adventure in one of the most breathtaking countries in the world? My name is Ali and I'm from Ireland! I am obsessed with traveling the world and having meaningful and authentic experiences. To date I have visited 42 countries and with each new country I fall even more in love with experiencing new cultures. During our trip, we will immerse ourselves in the beauty of Montenegro, where crystal clear waters, majestic mountains and charming coastal towns await us. Get ready to fill your week with incredible experiences that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. Our itinerary is packed with exciting activities, including thrilling kayak and boat tours that will take us to hidden coves and secluded beaches along the Adriatic coast. We will also have the opportunity to take part in local cooking classes, where we will learn the secrets of Montenegrin cuisine and enjoy delicious traditional dishes. No trip to Montenegro would be complete without a visit to Lake Scutari, the largest lake in the Balkans. We will glide along its calm waters, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife. And for a unique experience, we will visit a local honey farm where we will learn about the art of beekeeping and enjoy the sweet flavors of Montenegrin honey. But that's not all! We will also have the opportunity to experience traditional rural life, where we can learn more about organic farming methods, try our hand at milking cows and enjoy the peaceful countryside. In Ireland, I organize social walks where I bring together a group of like-minded people to explore what Ireland has to offer. On each walk I am so happy to observe the most amazing connections and see everyone make lifelong friendships. On this trip I want you all to experience what I have experienced through traveling and organizing events, making new friends for life!!! Everyone is welcome, whether you are traveling with your partner or alone, you will quickly become part of our travel family. So, are you ready to join me on this incredible adventure in Montenegro?

Your highlight today: Get to know Budva on a city tour

Today is finally the day! You will meet Ali and your fellow travelers in person and set off on an unforgettable adventure with them. When you arrive at the airport, our English-speaking guide will be waiting for you. He will take us to our first accommodation in Budva. If there is enough time, we will have the opportunity to make a few stops for lunch or sightseeing on the way there.

Once we arrive in Budva, we check into our hotel before exploring the city together. From cute little alleyways to breathtaking views and beautiful beaches, the city has everything to offer.

To round off the first day, we will have dinner together in a traditional restaurant. There we will toast to another 4 wonderful days and round off the evening in a relaxed atmosphere.

Your highlights today: Enjoy a speedboat tour in the Bay of Kotor

After breakfast at our hotel, we head to Kotor today. A picturesque little town right on the Adriatic coast. Once again, we start our day by strolling around the town and exploring.

Then it's time for action! We take a speedboat towards the town of Perast and then to the island of "Our Lady of the Rocks". Back in Kotor, we make our way on foot to a Montenegrin family to get to know the country's traditional cuisine. We also have the opportunity to taste rakija, local wine and homemade juices.

In the evening we return to our accommodation in Budva, where you can enjoy some free time.

Your highlights today: Discover Lake Scutari & get to know the way of life of the locals

After a hearty breakfast, we set off on our way to Lake Scutari. Of course, we won't miss out on a wonderful boat trip here either! Just enjoy the unique nature around you or will you even venture into the water?

Back on the shore, we start our journey to the north of the country. We have about a 2-hour drive ahead of us until we reach the small village of Trubjela. There we meet a local who gives us an insight into his life here in Montenegro. He introduces us to the traditions of his family, shows us his beehives and lets us taste his homemade rakija. He also prepares a traditional meal for us, which we can all enjoy together afterwards.

After this exciting day, we continue on to our next accommodation in Zabljak.

This morning we will visit the Djurdjevica-Tara Bridge. It crosses the Tara River Canyon, which is considered the deepest canyon in Europe. There we have the opportunity to have breakfast, relax a little and optionally go ziplining.

Our Montenegro round trip then takes us to Durmitor National Park. It takes us just under 30 minutes to reach the famous "Black Lake". From there, we start our short hike to Zminje Lake, a glacial lake, and back again.

In the afternoon, we return to our accommodation, where we can enjoy our last evening together in peace and quiet.

Breakfast
