If the required number is not met, tours may not take place, or optional tour/activity prices, content, and vehicles used may vary based on the number of participants.

Triple rooms are assigned based on hotel availability. In such rooms, the bed provided for the 3rd person may be smaller than standard beds. Triple rooms consist of one large bed and one extra bed.

Tour Program
Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen – Podgorica – Budva
Meeting with our valued guests at the Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport International Departures Terminal at least 3 hours prior to departure. After completing ticket, baggage, and passport procedures, we will depart on Pegasus Airlines' scheduled flight PC 261 at 10:45 for Podgorica. Arrival in Podgorica is scheduled for 11:35 local time. Following passport and ticket formalities, we will leave the airport area to begin our city tour. We then proceed towards Budva. Upon arrival in Budva, one of the most renowned holiday destinations in the Balkans known for its stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife, we will embark on a walking tour visiting Stari Grad (the old town center) and the castle. Afterwards, we will transfer to our hotel for check-in. Guests who wish may enjoy Budva's nightlife at its exquisite restaurants and entertainment venues. Overnight stay at our hotel.
Budva (Tivat-Porto Montenegro-Perast-Kotor)
After breakfast, an optional full-day excursion to Kotor and the Fjords is available for 75 euros. During this tour, we will visit Tivat, Porto Montenegro, Kotor, and Perast, including a round-trip boat trip to Our Lady of the Rocks in Perast. We will first depart for Tivat and explore Porto Montenegro, a luxurious marina known for its impressive architecture. Next, we will visit Kotor, a historic and tourist town nestled among white stone buildings and bathed in Mediterranean sunlight, recognized on UNESCO's World Heritage list. Kotor, located in southwestern Montenegro near southern Croatia, is Europe's second-largest fjord after Norway's and serves as a natural harbor. It consists of four bays connected by narrow straits, with bare mountains dropping steeply toward the coast. After our guided city tour of Kotor, you will have free time for personal exploration and activities before we proceed to Perast, a charming baroque town famous for its small islands in the Bay of Kotor. In Perast, we will enjoy a pleasant boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks, visit the island, and return. Perast is one of the most beautiful places in Montenegro for swimming; please don't forget your swimsuit. After enjoying the sea and sun in Perast, we will return to Budva. Guests who wish may optionally join the extra "Montenegro Night" evening event (75 euros). This includes a special dinner at a lovely restaurant on Budva beach, accompanied by live music and limited drinks. The menu features: appetizer platter with cheese and cured meats, Sopka salad, grilled sea bass served with potatoes and spinach sauce, dessert, one local rakija, and one soft drink (wine/beer/cola, etc.). Guests who do not eat fish can substitute their main course with meatballs or chicken, provided they inform us one day in advance. Overnight accommodation will be at our hotel.
Budva (Cetinje - Virpazar - Lake Skadar - Bar - Sveti Stefan)
After breakfast, an optional half-day boat tour of Budva's beaches, Petrovac, and Sveti Stefan (75 euros) will take place. During this excursion, we board our private boat from the shores of Budva and begin our journey. First, we stop at Sveti Nikola (Hawaii) Island for a swimming break, followed by a visit to Sveti Stefan Island. We then continue by boat to the charming coastal town of Petrovac, where we spend approximately two hours on board. Petrovac, a small tourist town along the Adriatic coast, is also one of Montenegro's oldest seaside settlements. After enjoying the sun and sea at Petrovac's beaches, we have a free lunch before returning by road to depart from Petrovac. On the way back, we admire the extraordinary views of Sveti Stefan from land. Once a fishing village surrounded by walls in the 15th century, Sveti Stefan was later expropriated and sold to a Singaporean hotel chain. Today, after extensive restoration work, it has become a major tourist destination. Until the 1950s, it remained a fishing village, and during the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, it hosted famous personalities such as Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, and Elizabeth Taylor. We pause for photos at a vantage point offering panoramic views of Sveti Stefan before heading back to Budva. *** Outside the summer season (spring, autumn, and winter), this tour will be conducted entirely by road under the name "Budva Beaches, Sveti Stefan, Petrovac, and Stari Bar Tour," without a boat. Guests who wish may join an additional afternoon excursion: a boat tour on Lake Skadar, a visit to Cetinje—Montenegro's former royal capital—and an evening dinner at a national restaurant (110 euros). In this tour, we first travel to the picturesque town of Virpazar, from where we embark on a private boat for a leisurely cruise through the Lake Skadar National Park. Aboard the boat, you will have the opportunity to sample renowned Montenegrin wines. As home to around 250 bird species, including pelicans, Lake Skadar—the largest lake in the Balkans—offers a unique chance to observe these magnificent birds. Following the boat tour, we explore Cetinje, Montenegro's historic royal capital. Highlights of our panoramic tour include the former Turkish Consulate, the small Cetinje square, King Nikola's residence, and the historic Serbian Orthodox monastery. Dinner will be served at sunset at a famous local and national restaurant in Montenegro. Menu: Seasonal salad, cheese platter, meat platter (beef) with boiled potatoes in sauce, and one large glass of local wine. This meal allows guests to experience traditional Montenegrin cheeses, meats, and wines. Vegetarian guests may request to substitute their main course with meatballs or chicken, provided they notify us one day in advance. Overnight accommodation will be at our hotel.
