Summary: Lovely day at the countryside of Montenegro. Highly recommended for everyone who likes to see more of Montenegro rather than being on the boat. Our guide Bobo is a great and genuine person as well as the owner, who took the time to greet us in person. It felt like a bespoke and tailored tour instead of a touristic routined itinerary.
