Fantastic day trip! - Mato, our guide, was fantastic. So informative and friendly. We loved visiting Montenegro and Bosnia and a day trip was perfect. We saw a lot, learned a lot and got to experience just a sliver of two fantastic countries and their people. A few snacks/lunch and plenty of time to walk around the small villages. Completely safe and everyone was welcoming. Thanks Mato

Montenegro by Ivan - We went to Montenegro with Ivan and it was great. We weren't sure because we are still English students, but his English was super clear and he even made jokes in Spanish because he has friends from there. It was fun and enjoyable. I would do it again.
Gracias Iván!

Top! - The truth is that the day was super fun. I never thought something as unusual as visiting two countries in one day could be so exciting. But we followed the advice of some friends who had done it in June with the same company and booked the tour.
Our driver was Ivan and we were very pleased. He gave us a brief explanation of both countries and had a very pleasant conversation during the trip.
Without a doubt, if we come back, we will do something similar with more time in each place.

Perfect day trip! - We had an amazing trip and throughly enjoyed seeing two countries in one day! Our tour guide was nothing but lovely and funny for the entirety of our trip whilst also being very knowledgeable. We didn’t have to wait at any borders which gave us more time to explore. Our tour guide was very flexible with how long the group wanted in each location and recommended and organised an outer boat trip whilst in Montenegro. Would highly recommend this tour.

Great day that was informative and fun - What a great trip to see 2 countries in one day - a big ask but our guide, Ivan, made it happen seamlessly. We didn’t even wait 5 minutes at any border which gave us more time to see the areas on Montenegra and Bosnia. I was skeptical of the tour but from pick up on time to border crossing, to city tours and boat trips and an interesting lunch it was a great day. We owe a lot of thanks to Ivan for making it happen!!!! Thanks Ivan - best guide in Dubrovnik.
