- Kotor Cable Car - The journey begins at 9:00 am from the designated meeting point.
To experience the breathtaking views of the Bay of Kotor and ascend Lovćen Mountain, the Cable Car offers a scenic ride, providing a stunning overlook of the historic Old Austro-Hungarian serpentine road from 1884, with spectacular vistas of Kotor and Tivat Bays - a truly memorable start to an incredible day!
- Kotor Serpentine - In the event of windy weather, the Cable Car ride may be canceled, and the journey will proceed via the old Austro-Hungarian road to reach the Njeguši village.
- Njegusi - After taking in the magnificent Bay of Kotor, the Great Montenegro tour continues over the slopes of Mt. Lovćen to the renowned village of Njeguši, famous for producing the finest prosciutto (smoked ham) in the region.
Along the winding road, travelers will pass numerous original Montenegrin stone houses over 300 years old. It’s not uncommon to see cows and goats grazing, resting, or even blocking the road in the surrounding fields and slopes.
By 09:30 am, everyone should be ready for a brief breakfast/snack at Montenegro’s oldest restaurant, first opened in 1881.
Before enjoying a meal, the guide will offer a complimentary traditional RAKIJA shot (a strong local brandy) to kickstart the day.
- Pre/post high season only
- Lovcen National Park - After a brief rest and delicious traditional food, the Great Montenegro tour continues towards the peaks of Lovćen. To conquer this “Sea of rocks,” the drive goes through the National Park of Lovćen, reaching the renowned Lake Peak at an altitude of 1,660 meters.
- Njegos Mausoleum - Atop the second-highest and impressive peak of Lovćen lies the world’s highest mausoleum, where the esteemed Montenegrin ruler and poet Petar II Petrović Njegoš is laid to rest.
- Cetinje - During the walking tour, the guide will showcase the most significant monuments, celebrated for their beauty and historical importance - Monastery of Cetinje, King Nikola’s Palace, Court Church at Ćipur, and Biljarda (residence of Peter II Petrović Njegoš), where visitors can view a concrete relief of Montenegro created by the Austro-Hungarian army during WWI.
-
Lake Skadar - The tour proceeds to the Crnojević River for stunning photo opportunities, a scenic boat ride, and a timely lunch break!
Here, participants will enjoy a picturesque and relaxing boat ride. As the Crnojević River flows into Skadar Lake, the lush vegetation, water lilies, and vibrant birdlife offer a similar experience to being at the lake itself. -
Sveti Stefan - A major attraction on the Budva Riviera is Sveti Stefan. This former fishing village, now an exclusive luxury hotel-town on a peninsula, restricts entry to non-guests.
There is just enough time to appreciate the island’s beauty and capture it in a photo from a viewpoint above the island.

Milo’s was amazing, would highly recommend - Milo’s was amazing. We had a fantastic tour with him and saw the mausoleum cedar and the right hand of John the Baptist. The overlooks/ views we saw were absolutely unparalleled and he is extremely knowledgeable on the history of Montenegro. He also has a great sense of humor (we had a great helicopter joke!) and the tour company was very communicative. We loved swimming on the lake and seeing the Lily pads would highly recommend.

A great trip made even better by the guide - Slavko was a brilliant guide, very personable and knowledgeable and with a great sense of humour. We got a full tour of Cetinje, the old capital, with Slavko telling us all about the history and culture of Montenegro, we got to swim in a beautiful lake, visited the highest mausoleum in the world, and saw absolutely breath-taking views of Kotor bay along the way. A fantastic trip.

Amazing trip!!! - We had an amazing experience on this trip. Starting from the cable car, I must say the best start of the trip with the areal view of Kotor, and the othe villages plus the surrounding mountains. It gets even better when we get ot the top of mountain where the great ruler of Montenegro rests in peace with 360 degree panoramic view of Mountains and valleys and boat ride with swimming experience and th fish lunch locally fished in the same river was the cherry on the top.
The guide Najia was just brilliant with her sense of humour and the information about the places or people or just general history. We got to know much about this country, its economical and cultural aspects. Without her, the trip wouldn't have been the same. So BIG SHOUT OUT TO OUR GUIDE !!!

The title says it all, A Great Montenegro Tour! - Every stop was truly a highlight. For first-time travelers, I highly recommend booking a tour guide to fully appreciate the rich history and culture of the country. Our tour guide, Vania, exceeded our expectations! She didn’t just explain the history. She made us feel like we were living it. The way she shared stories, especially about Petar II Petrović-Njegoš, brought Montenegro’s past to life right before our eyes. Thanks to her, we've fallen even more in love with this beautiful country.
We also want to give a big shoutout to our professional driver for making our journey as smooth and comfortable as possible. And of course, a huge thank you to 360 Monte for organizing such an unforgettable tour. Everything was seamless from start to finish.
We can’t wait to come back to Montenegro!

Fantastic tour to visit some of the highlights of Montenegro! - Beautiful sites with wonderful views and landscapes. I did the cable car (that I recommend), so you can see all the bay from the top! The food at the restaurant on the river was great and a good price (18€) for 3 courses.
This tour permitted me to visit all these places in one day, without depending and loosing time with local transportation.
Igor was a great tour guide, he explained all the sights, the history of the country and answer all the questions we had. The driver Zuro was also very professional and kind.
I highly recommend this tour, it's a good opportunity to learn more about Montenegro.

Beware of Montenegro 360 - We were so disappointed. Because we were a small group of 6, half the itinerary was dropped. It was advertised as a 12 hour trip but we left at 9.00 and were back in Kotor by 17.30. The reason given for not going on the cable car and going via the road instead was that the others in the group did not want to go on the cable car and they couldn’t split the group. Following conversations with the others it transpired that we had all wanted to do the cable car but were all told the same thing. Montenegro 360 lied to us. Neither did we visit Njeguši village to sample the local smoked cheese and prosciutto nor receive our complimentary shot of Rajika. The view of St Stefan was so far away I could not see it. If the full itinerary is not viable for small groups they should state this in the trip description.
It is a shame as The Mausoleum and boat trip were very enjoyable and our guide Nadia was very knowledgeable which is why we still gave her a tip. If you are allocated to a small group however beware!
