Places to Visit

I’ve visited Montenegro many times, and while each place has its charm, Perast will always be my favorite. This small, peaceful town by the Bay of Kotor, with its baroque palaces and island churches, feels like stepping into a postcard. It’s the kind...

Stari Bar is a must-see for history lovers. It’s atmospheric, slightly eerie, and beautifully preserved. The quiet setting also makes it ideal for slow travelers looking to explore ruins in peace.
Old Fortress, Stari Bar

While you can’t walk inside without paying, the visual appeal alone is worth the stop. It’s romantic, photogenic, and symbolic of Montenegro’s high-end coastal charm.
Sveti Stefan, Montenegro

This is great for families or curious adventurers. The cave feels safe but mysterious, making it an easy win for something unusual on your itinerary.
Lipa Cave

A nature lover’s paradise. Ideal for peaceful exploration or photography. Perfect if you want to avoid crowds and connect with nature.

Go here if you love nightlife and buzzy beaches. But don’t miss the Old Town it’s a delightful contrast to the modern chaos and worth a few hours of wandering.
Budva, Montenegro

Adventurers will love it here. Even if you’re not rafting, the sheer depth and raw beauty of the canyon are breathtaking.
Tara River Canyon

One of the best national parks in the Balkans. Great for hikers of all levels. Prutaš Peak offers a quieter trail alternative to the popular Bobotov Kuk.
Durmitor National Park

This coastal town feels like a hidden gem. Quieter than Budva and less touristy, with a rich atmosphere. The hilly terrain could be a challenge, though.
Herceg-Novi, Montenegro

If you’re a romantic or a history buff, you’ll fall in love with Perast. The boat ride to the islands adds a nice touch.

Arguably the crown jewel of Montenegro. You could spend days here exploring every corner. The climb to the fortress is steep but totally worth it for the views.
Kotor, Montenegro

If you like viewpoints and cultural depth, this park is essential. The winding road itself is an experience, and the views from the mausoleum are jaw-dropping.
Lovcen National Park

This is off the beaten path and best for seasoned hikers. Expect fewer tourists and dramatic landscapes. A real hidden treasure of Europe.
Prokletije National Park

Enjoyable 3 hours, the boats were comfy, the driver was friendly and knowledgable and the music was good. The blue cave was beautiful and interesting pass by on submarine tunnels and Mamula island.

Absolutely breathtaking tour. The jeep driver/tour guide was remarkable. The biggest highlight was eating lunch at the top of the mountain in the private residence of the owner of the tour company.
