This tour was not well organized and rather rushed & confusing. Our tour guide did not follow the itinerary we sign up for and kept offering us different options. He wanted us to vote on things with our group. It made it very awkward as we didn’t know each other. He was thoughtful and got us pastries & water. He would offer to take photos occasionally. His van was clean and well maintained. We were picked up an hour later than original itinerary so got to places later than plan which left us with some traffic and long lines. Which seemed to really stress out our guide which also made things awkward in van.

Tomi, was an excellent tour guide, He will stop to take photos and took our pictures too. It was an amazing tour. Will mostly recommend.
Do not use this company. Booked a small group tour 3 months ago for a party of 6 and they cancelled 3 days prior to our tour. No reason giving. Not reputable. Should be banned from TripAdvisor
We enjoyed Perast and Kotor. Beautiful area. But the border crossings are a big downside. It took almost two hours combined to get through, from and back to Dubrovnik.
Had a lovely day, although spent a lot of time in car due to distance but fortunately our wait time through customs was short. Tomiour driver/guide was friendly and informative and put couple of thoughtful touches with bottle water and some pastries.
So nice to be a small group… we all got along beautifully and everyone was a joy to be with. Our guide was Boris and he was a gem!! How fun! So well worth the trip! I booked two by mistake, and so happy I ended up choosing the smaller group!
It’s along day! 12 hrs plus so be ready for that. Car was comfortable. Our driver was a nice guy,knowledgeable, though he was hard to hear in the back of the car. Enjoyed the stops though I think one too many?
Cancelled 25 hours before the scheduled start time. On the phone they said they didn't fill the tour, which was billed as semi private and I find inexcusable. Via email they claimed weather but having had to rebook through my hotel at a higher rate it's very evident that was a lie. Do not book with this organizer.
Tomislav was an excellent guide. He communicated joining times etc the night before trip. Very informative and had a good sense of humour. Montenegro is stunning. Tomislav stopped for photo opportunities as well as scheduled stops. Tour felt relaxed and unhurried. Plenty of time at Kotor, Perast and another place I can’t remember the name of. It was suggested as an alternative to Budva due to roadworks. Good value and a great introduction to Montenegro.
Hi ,I am Prashanth from India.we went on this trip on 18th April and Mr Tomislav was our guide.It was very well organised and everything was taken care of.we had to pass border control and then we had a short coffee break. Tomi also has a good knowledge about the place,Its history and through out the trip he kept us engaged.He was also kind enough to take good pictures of us 😊.overall we enjoyed the tour and his company.on time pickup and drop was provided .enough free time was given to explore the place. Thanks to the operator and our guide Mr Tomislav for this trip.
Tomi is a seasoned driver, gives enough information and open to accommodate. He is also very helpful in taking pictures. We had loads of fun!
The trip was amazing, long but well worth it.We visited Trebinie, Kotor, Perast and Budva. Everything was planned perfectly. We had enough time of our own plus we learned so many interesting things about the history of the region. Tomislav ( our guide) was great. Highly recommend
Hi I sent my guest for this trip and they enjoyed it very very much Thanks and will definitely connect in future for more such tour 🤠
I was extremely excited to go on this tour to Montenegro and booked it few days in advance, however we got a cancellation notice 48 hours prior to departure and message from Toni advising not enough people have booked for the tour to take place. That is something that needs to be disclosed upfront prior to booked as you’re taking a big change that the tour may not happen at all if he does not have enough people booked. We had to scramble to find something similar and the expectations were not properly set that created more work and confusion being in limbo.
Our tour guides’ relentless effort to make our day trip visit to Montenegro a wonderful experience. Accommodating, friendly and sincere people in my opinion. Thanks to Tomi and Igor.
Tomi was awful. He had a very thick accent and he mumbled. Very difficult to understand. He also seemed to have his own agenda. He requested a pick up at 9 instead of 8 which was fine. Then wanted to take us to a town in Bosnia. One person said yes and the rest of us said that wasn’t part of the tour. Off we went to Bosnia. We got there and saw a lovely new church that had a great overlook. He wanted to take us to old town and we said we thought this was nice but we really wanted to go to Kotor as we had planned. That made him angry and he said ‘it’s nice but not nice enough to spend a half an hour walking around old town.’ We insisted we go to Kotor. But first we stopped at a grocery store where he got water. He also bought something for himself to eat and we headed out. It took quite a while to get there. He made several stops to look at the view and one long enough for us to use the restroom. When I asked if we could just get to Kotor he very curtly replied that he’d like to keep to the original schedule since that is what we wanted. ‘Is that ok? And used my name in almost a threatening manner. We finally got to Kotor at 2 pm. He parked at a casino a few blocks from the main gate. We walked there and asked for a lunch break. He said he had a place in Budva he was taking us when we were through here. He took us on a tour through town that consisted of reading the plaques on the wall. We stopped in front of St Tryphon and I asked about the Saint that was there. He told me there wasn’t one….but there is. Another person in my party asked him a question about another church and he said ‘Do you have a problem learning? I have already answered that question.’ We were tired, hot and hungry and he allowed us 20 minutes after his tour to do what we wanted. At the end of our 20 minutes he took us back to the car via the top of the wall. When we got to the car he asked if we needed the restroom….we did not but he said he did. He left us in the hot parking lot. It was about 90 degrees. After 10 minutes I went into the casino to see what was going on. He was chatting with a bar maid while we were out sweating in the hot sun. On to Budva. We took the scenic route through an industrial park. Parked the car at a construction site and walked to his restaurant. It was actually quite nice and we were starving as it was now 5 pm. After dinner he wanted to walk us around old town, it was 6:30 pm and we wanted to go home. So we took a roundabout way back to the car. We got back to Dubrovnik at 9:30 pm. Why weren’t we more forceful in telling him what we wanted? - because he was quite intimidating. None of us can speak Croatian and we were not sure what his agenda was as it appeared he had one other than the tour we signed up for. While we saw some of what we wanted it was not an enjoyable day. I would not recommend him as a guide for anyone
I booked a tour for my husband, my 2 kids (4 and 6 years old), my Sister in Law and Partner plus myself. We were all in Durbovnik for the week looking to explore outside of Croatia. I had heard wonderful things about Montenegro! However we had heard the border can take long crossing over. Communication leading up to the tour was great with Tomi. He is very knowledgeable in the area, best places to see, the history, culture etc. We started the day in Bosnia which had no line ups at the border. What a GEM that was to experience, was not on my to go list of places but I am so glad we got to see it. Then we had a few stops in Montenegro. Crossing the border from Bosnia to Montenegro was quick small lineups! The views were stunning, we had incredible food, plus we did the boat out to lady of the rock. Doesn't seem like much but when you get there it is a 360 view of just stunning small towns and mountains. It reminded me a lot of the fjords in Norway. One of the best parts of Bosnia and Montenegro is you get to see beautiful old towns, great natural views but without the CROWDS of Dubrovnik. This day trip is a must for anyone looking to explore past Croatia to all the hidden gems just on the other side of the border.
What an incredible experience! I booked this tour for my husband, my 2 kids (4 and 6) and my Sister in Law and her partner. We had heard good things about Montenegro so we were excited to check it out. Reading many reviews I had heard that the border crossing can be difficult and can take a long time. Leading up to the tour our guide Tomi was in communication and made arranging the final details easy. He is super knowledgeable about the area, from the history, culture, food, best little spots and knew when to hit the border and when to avoid it. Our family had the best time experiencing the beautiful sights and this is a MUST do if you are in Dubrovnik. The towns you stop at are STUNNING but it doesn't have the crazy crowds you get in Croatia - and it is more affordable for meals etc. Thank you Tomi for the most memorable tour!
Driver had car issues and was 1 hour late. He drove an unregistered car and we were stopped at the Montenegro border. The driver was fined 1,000 euros. Our passports were taken by the police and they would not release them back to us until he went to an ATM and came back to pay his fine. Worst experience ever. We never made it to the excursion due to all these issues. Tour was to start at 8:00 am. We were still at the border with police at 11:30 am.
The driver and guide, Tomi, very good, his explanations and all the places we visited. Very beautiful Montenegro. The excursion is a bit long due to traffic and because it is an always crowded area.
Nice day with nice, generous and knowledgeable guide. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to hear what was said in the car. Would be good if the guide got some kind of microphone! Beautiful scenery and good stops along the way. We stayed a little too many times for smaller things, which was nice and fun, but made us come back late.
We booked our tour of Montenegro with Tomi via tripadvisor. Tomi picked us up on time and at the scheduled place. He is an exceptional guide of great kindness! The guided tour began as soon as we got in the car. On the way, we discovered beautiful landscapes! Tomi stopped several times to explain and take pictures of us. We have beautiful souvenir photos thanks to him! The visit to Montenegro was very good. Tomi did everything to make it suitable for the group and adapted his schedule and route according to our desires. She is a super helpful person who speaks good English. His car was very clean and suitable for the excursion. The cities chosen are all different and give a beautiful overview of Montenegro. We will not hesitate to book more excursions with him on our future trips to the region.
