Continuing to Budva, the tour reveals the vibrant heart of Montenegro. The Old Town, with its cobblestone streets and medieval architecture, is a testament to the region’s rich history. A photo break at Fortress Mogren captures the essence of the Budvanska Riviera, where the sea meets the sky in a dance of colors.
