We ride the alpine coaster first and then headed down on our bikes. We stopped in multiple places to take in the beautiful views & take pictures. The roadside cafe/bar we stopped at for a drink had breathtaking panoramic views. I absolutely loved Montenegro and want to come back. I recommend this tour 100%!”

“Fantastic day with a great guide, we loved it. We did struggle a little to find the meeting point and only 1 persons phone from the party worked in Montenegro so we were a little bit worried at the start, but don’t let that put you off. The meeting point is by the wire fencing to the left of the Idea supermarket - the traffic was crazy on the morning of our trip so he was 10 mins late, which also worries us. Nonetheless when Rafi arrived we jumped on the van and headed off to the cable car - it’s about a 10 minute drive from town. We were…”

“We really enjoyed the tour, the places visited and our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. I did, however, find it difficult to get on and off a bike with a crossbar (normally for men) as I am not very tall and had to tilt the bike almost to the floor to mount and dismount. The roads can be very busy, which can be scary at times, but there are many places where you can use tracks at a lower level to avoid hills and the traffic too.”

The biking, on the other hand, is dangerous. The streets are narrow, and the cars just buzz around. Over all it was a good experience.”
