There’s no better way to catch a sunset than over the water in Kotor — and if you’re going to do it, why not go big? While you're at it, swing by the jaw-dropping Ostrog Monastery, dramatically carved into a vertical cliffside, and hang out in the highest inhabited spot in the Balkans. Medieval towns, epic landscapes, and new travel buddies — what more could you want from a seven-day adventure in the Balkans? Trust us, this trip is one for the books.
◆Arrive at any time. Head out tonight with your fellow travellers to Kotor's old town. Make new friends as you explore the beautiful medieval architecture.
◆Set off to explore Kotor today by land and by sea. Immerse yourself in the beautiful landscape with a hike to the Kotor Fortress; there's no better way to connect with the region. Snap photos of the beautiful vistas before heading down for free time for lunch. Later in the afternoon, work on your sea legs with a sunset boat tour of the Bay of Kotor, passing several small islands and historical sites and visit the old town of Perast before returning to Kotor for the night.
◆
Drive north out of Kotor into the country's interior with a stop to stretch your legs at Nevidio canyon, said to have the most stunning landscapes in all of Montenegro. Continue to the small town of Žabljak, located in the mountains near the picturesque Durmitor National Park, full of crystal clear lakes and thick pine forests along the Tara river. Set out on foot today with a hike through the beautiful mountain landscapes of Durmitor National Park before sitting down for dinner in the evening.
◆Set off to Budva this morning, stopping at the Ostrog Monastery along the way. Carved in the side of a cliff in the 17th century, this monastery is one of the most important religious sites in Montenegro and is sure to impress with it's brilliant white exterior against contrasting rugged stone. Once in Budva, set off with your CEO on a short walking exploration of the old town before an optional dinner out with the group and free evening.
◆Take advantage of a free day in Budva to fill your time however you like. Beach bums are welcome to spend time on the local beaches, rent a SUP or kayak, or choose to take a catamaran cruise to hit up various swimming spots and to explore the Blue Cave. In the evening, have a Big Night Out on the town to check out the lively nightlife that Budva is known for.
◆As bittersweet as it is, say goodbye to your newfound friends today. Depart at any time but feel free to sneak some last-minute photos before you go.
