A Symphony of Senses: Budva’s Indoor Escapes

As the rain gently taps against the windows, Budva reveals its hidden indoor treasures, inviting you to explore its cultural and culinary delights. Begin your journey with the Montenegro Wine Tour(https://example.com) on the morning of May 10th or 11th.

The journey continues through Cetinje, where the echoes of Montenegro’s royal past linger in the air.

At the heart of this tour lies a family-owned winery, where ancient methods and organic practices create wines that are as unique as the landscape itself. Here, you will savor the flavors of Lake Skadar, paired with wines that tell the story of the land. The experience is a dance of flavors and aromas, set against the backdrop of a 300-year-old stone house. As you sip and savor, the rain outside becomes a distant memory, replaced by the warmth of Montenegrin hospitality.

Monastic Marvels: A Journey Through Time

Available from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM on May 10th and 11th, this tour offers a glimpse into Montenegro’s spiritual heart. The journey begins at the Praskvica Monastery, perched above the luxurious Sveti Stefan resort. Here, the scent of peaches from a nearby spring mingles with the rich history of the Paštrovići tribe.

As you wander through the monastery’s treasury, the rain outside becomes a gentle accompaniment to the stories of the past. The tour continues to the Rustovo Monastery, where the tranquility of the location is matched only by the warmth of the nuns who call it home. Their handcrafted products offer a tangible connection to the land and its traditions. The tour concludes with breathtaking views from Celobrdo, where the rain-kissed landscape stretches out before you, a testament to the enduring beauty of Montenegro.

“Incredible experience! Petar was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and his English is impeccable. The three monasteries are beautiful, but most particularly the one run by Nuns (hint - make sure you go into their shop, the hand cream is incredible). Such stunning views, and such great history of Montenegro, absolutely recommend this tour!” - Reviewed at 2024-10-03
