We will be in Tirana and are wanting to take this day tour into Montenegro. We are, however, staying the night in Budva. Instead of going back to Tirana, could we be dropped off in Budva? If not, no problem. We would also like to know if this is guaranteed to depart?

We're happy to let you know that, upon your request, we can offer FREE drop-off in Budva instead of Tirana if you decide to book this tour. The tour departure is guaranteed, even if it's just the two of you.

Is it possible to not return to Tirana from Kotor on this tour as I propose on going onto Sarajevo and this makes more sense.

We are happy to inform you that a drop off in Kotor is possible instead of returning back in Tirana, this will be without any additional cost.

I was looking at your tour to Montenegro and was curious if it would be possible to stay there at the end of the day tour instead of come in the transport back to Tirana?

Regarding your question I would like to confirm that you can stay there at the end of the tour if you want to.

Can you please send an itinarary with the timings breakdown?

This tour starts in Tirana at 7:00am and you will be back in Tirana at late afternoon 7pm, sometimes depending on the trafic. Firs stop of the tour is Budva and than we continue to Kotor, we spend around 2h in each destination.

How can I book a tour for a group?

You can book for 3 travelers and if a 4th person joins, you will only have to pay extra. We would need the information for the 4th person to join at least 2-3 days before.

Is the tour suitable for someone with mobility issues?

The tour involves some walking and encountering stairs, but we will assist and try to avoid difficult climbs.

Is there a winery tour included?

Such a fabulous day trip from Tirana. Budva and Kotor are stunning. Endri was an excellent driver and guide, and a genuinely lovely person to spend time with. It was really interesting to hear about life in Albania. Endri also went out of his way to accommodate my requests. Based on my experience, I’d thoroughly recommend Endri as well as Choose Balkans as a company - they responded quickly and arrived promptly. A lovely lady from Choose Balkans came with Endri to welcome me which was a nice extra detail; I’m not sure if that was just because I was a solo female traveller but it was a very kind gesture.Show more

Our Semi-Private Day Tour of Montenegro: Budva & Kotor from Tirana was an unforgettable experience, made even better by our fantastic guide, Toni. He was incredibly kind, accommodating, and funny, ensuring that we never felt rushed while exploring these breathtaking destinations. His explanations of each location, along with recommendations for must-see spots and must-try foods, added so much value to our trip. Toni made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey, giving us ample time to explore, dine, and shop without any pressure. His caring nature and great sense of humor made the experience even more enjoyable. Budva was absolutely stunning, and Kotor was simply unforgettable—both places were rich in history, charm, and incredible scenery. This tour was exceptionally well-organized, and Toni’s professionalism and warmth made it truly special. If you're looking for a seamless and enjoyable day trip, this tour is highly recommended!Show more
