I am a local Montenegrin guide with over 20 years of experience in tourism and hospitality. Throughout my career, I have worked as a supervisor at Podgorica Airport for several European airlines, managed a hotel on the Montenegrin coast, and served as Executive Director of one of Europe’s largest travel agencies, based in Belgrade. My passion is sharing the rich history, culture, and authentic everyday life of Montenegro and the region. Whether you are looking for a deep dive into our medieval history or a quiet glass of wine in a hidden mountain village, I am dedicated to crafting a journey that feels less like a tour and more like an invitation into the heart of my home. I love welcoming guests as friends, showing breathtaking landscapes, local traditions, legends, and hidden gems, known only to a locals, while creating warm, memorable experiences that go far beyond a typical tour.

Overview of your Bar tour

Leave the coast behind and discover the wild heart of Montenegro. From Bar Cruise Port, we'll follow quiet roads through the Crmnica region to Virpazar, gateway to Skadar Lake National Park. Wander its old streets, meet locals and uncover stories from Montenegro's remarkable past. At the Visitor Centre, discover the lake's unique wildlife—from Dalmatian pelicans and cormorants to wolves and foxes—and step inside a traditional Montenegrin room filled with authentic everyday objects from generations past. Those wishing can join an optional private boat cruise past St. Nicholas Monastery and the legendary prison island of Grmožur, with time for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear lake (bring your swimsuit! :) ) Complete the experience with an optional family-hosted lunch of fresh lake fish and homemade specialties before returning to Bar.
