What is the best private car tour from Budva for first-time visitors?
The “Best of Montenegro” tour covering Sveti Stefan, Cetinje, Njegusi, Kotor, and Budva is ideal. It packs iconic sights, culture, and local tasting into one seamless 8-hour private car tour, perfect for getting a comprehensive overview.
Are private car tours in Montenegro worth the cost?
Absolutely. Compared to crowded group buses, you get flexibility, personalized attention, and access to hidden spots. For families or small groups, the cost per person for a private car tour often becomes very competitive and offers far better value.
Can I customize the itinerary on a private car tour?
Yes, customization is the key benefit! Most private tours, especially luxury ones like the “Tailored Discovery from Dubrovnik,” are designed around your interests. You can often request specific stops, adjust duration, and focus on your preferred sights.
What should I book first: a coastal tour or a mountain tour?
If time allows, do both! Start with a coastal tour to see Budva, Kotor, and Sveti Stefan. Then, book a separate day for the mountains (like our Top Pick to Durmitor). This gives you the full Montenegro experience—dramatic coastline and majestic alpine scenery.
