Why Choose This Tour?

Bay of Kotor old military trails, side roads, single trails Lovcen National Park Cetinje Lake Skadar National Park Old Bar Budva Sveti Stefan Island Choice of arrival/departure airports The ride from Cetinje to Kotor was a real highlight.
Lovely to see a bit of the old capital and the 18km climb to the top was not as bad as we thought it would be.
The road on the way up was really quiet and the coffee and cake stop was fantastic.
The views from the very top were amazing and the descent was a real blast.
Some of the downhill rides, in particular the downhill through the Vramac range and down into Kotor Bay were truly breath-taking.
We also loved the experience of crossing the borders into Bosnia and Croatia on our bicycles.
The most memorable part of the holiday was finding a little cafe on the side of a hill on our way to Virpazar.
It came along just at the right time when we were needing some refreshments and shade.
We had a lovely plate of cheese, bread and olives made for us which went down treat.
They also made us cherry juice 'to go' to take with us.
The scenery, food and cycling were amazing and we would recommend it highly.
The organisation was excellent in the bikes we used and transferring our luggage.
I was extremely impressed by the scenic variety and the architectural and natural beauties of this small country.
Much was relayed to me about it’s complicated history and culture which has made me keen on learning more about both.
The whole trip was memorable because of the changing scenery each day.
There was a really nice contrast between the coast, the mountains and Skadar Lake, which gave us a really good insight into what Montenegro has to offer We did 250 km by bike in 7 days.
All the rides were great, there was a special one, when we had to bike through a 1.3 km long tunnel inside the mountain, and we met a lot of cows obstructing the exit....
The scenery, people, food and holiday itself were wonderful.
Cycling down the mountain to Lake Skadar on day 4.
The views were just breathtaking.
Loved it.
Wish i was still on it.
The guys who organised were so helpful and nice.
The most memorable was mountain biking in the area around Lake Skadar and in remote mountain areas.
Wildlife was really amazing there.
Great experience and very well organised!
A most scenic, rewarding and relaxing holiday.
The 7 day self guided tour really gave us an insight to Montenegro past and present.
Our bikes were well maintained and suited to the terrain, the routes were well explained (maps provided) and our guides were great A great mix of physical activity, relaxation, sunshine and the reassurance that we were being looked after made this a holiday that we would recommend to anyone who also enjoys variety in their days.
A great trip to a stunning country.
