Tivat
Meeting at the airport, transfer to the hotel. After check in, rest of the day at Leisure. Dinner
After
the breakfast be ready to explore most beautiful bay in Adriatic coast. You
will get know history, nature, landscapes of two UNESCO cities Kotor and
Perast.
Over 2000 years old,
with its Venetian palaces, churches, museums and squares, it is truly a
fortification masterpiece.
Located in a surreal
and unique atmosphere of Boka Bay, trapped in time, Kotor will tell you about
the ancient legends and some amazing stories.
Perast is one of the most beautiful little places in Boka
Bay, located just a few kilometers from Kotor. It looks like a piece of Venice
that has floated down the Adriatic. This tiny town boasts 16 churches and 17
formerly grand palazzos. Perast’s most famous landmarks are actually right in
the middle of the waters- two picturesque islands with quite the story behind
them.
In front of Perast sits Lady of the
Rocks.
Island is a man-made. The
story begins on July 22, 1452: two sailors, returning to Perast from a
difficult voyage, discovered an icon of the Madonna and Child resting on a rock
in a shallow part of the Bay. Considering the find a miracle, they vowed to
build a church on the spot. The sailors dropped stones around the spot where
the icon was found, slowly creating an islet and building a small chapel.
It soon became a tradition for sailors to drop stones in the water around the
chapel before a voyage. Nowadays at sunset on July 22, countless local boats are
decorated with garlands and sail out into the Bay to drop a stone around the
island.
Back in Tivat. Rest of the day at leisure. Dinner
After breakfast open horizon for spirit in Old
capital city –Cetinje. Cetinje is located in a valley surrounded by the
beautiful slopes of the National Park Lovcen. This is a marvelous city, a pure treasure of history,
culture and tradition of Montenegro. When you visit Cetinje, you will have the feeling as
if time had stopped. You will be surrounded by numerous old buildings, which
were once important mission of all countries. Two buildings are certainly the most representative:
Cetinje Monastery and Biljarda.

National
park Lovcen,
which provides an amazing opportunity for an unforgettable visit to the highest
mausoleum in the world (entrance included). National Park Lovcen offers a very

As Montenegro’s busiest tourist destination, Budva is
certainly a city that should be on every traveler’s list. Budva’s Old Town is a
Venetian maze of cobblestone streets, anchored by the 15th century
citadel.
Excellent hotels, villas and apartments attract
tourists to spend their vacation there.
Near Budva is situated the tiny island of Sveti Stefan just off the Montenegrin
coast and it used to be a fishing village. Today, it’s a luxury resort ready to
meet your needs. Connected to the

bridge, with the stone houses tightly packed together on top of the rocks
(entrance not included 25,00 pp).
