If you love the great outdoors, adventures and nature, then this is a tour for you. On this tour you will visit beautiful little town of Rijeka Crnojevica, have an unforgettable boat Tripand hike to Obod cave nearby. On the boat ride you will see many different species of birds and different animals (we might even see dears), water lilies, hills rising from the lake and old monasteries.

Picturesque Rijeka Crnojevica is a significant historical site of Montenegro and it is a place you can`t miss while in Montenegro. It was once the capital of the Crnojevic dynasty (15th century) and the first printed book in Europe “Oktoih prvoglasnik”, was printed in a printing house in this very place. Can you believe that we printed a book in 1494, just 2 years after Columbus discovered America? How amazing is that?

This tour is a perfect opportunity to experience and see the old Montenegro.
