We were there a year ago this past November, and it was a true surprise on our cruise. We tendered from the bay, which was nice, and then we took a car tour of the country with a very nice couple. It was great, with so much history and hidden gems! We even had time when we got back from the guided tour to check out the old town. It was a bit drizzly, but it was fun otherwise. We did stop in a bar for some drinks before we went back to the ship, and it actually was kind of expensive (with a mandatory 20% tip. We enjoyed the time regardless.

We stopped their on our honeymoon cruise. We went on a short excursion to lipa cave. It was our break from going to see historical buildings. It was my first time in a cave. I thought it was awesome to see some different natural beauty than I was used too. Do know if you decide to go there it is very cold. Temperatures are close to freezing all year round. They do have parkas but even with their parkas it was still cold. Also the ride back on the historical serpent road is definitely something to experience.

Staying in Budva instead of Dubronvik is another option (which reduces the road trip to a single hour) as Budva also has marvellous sea and swimming opportunities (don't forget to take a photo with Ballerina Statue on the rocks when you are there; oh, also you should try Tuna Fish Barbeque if you like sea food. While you are there, you might consider adding the following to your visit list: Tivat, Perast, Podgorica, Herceg Novi and Iskodra. They are all beautiful with their own characteristics!

Montenegro is a beautiful country with diverse nature and great views. I really recommend going inland towards the 4 other national parks (besides Lovcen. Funny thing is that Montenegrans don't seem to realize how beautiful their country is. The Montenegran border police asked us: 'why are you going to Montenegro? ' Tourist visit. 'Really? why would you come to Montenegro for that? '
Maybe this has changed since 2012: p.

We were hoping to go to Croatia for my guys 50th birthday with several other couples in November We are most likely going to be pushing that to next year. Great video and will be watching others to get us ready for whenever we can go. PS I love your wine and whiskey Wednesdays. I have literally painted seven rooms in my house listening to replays of them during this lock down. Cheers from Northern Virginia

Regarding the language, Montenegrin, Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian are basically the same language, called different in different countries for political reasons ('Language is a dialect with an army and a navy. '. The official dialect of each of these languages is Shtokavian. So, whichever words you learn in one of those countries works in others as well: molim, hvala, dobar dan.

I too have been on that balcony; -) I'm NOT a shopaholic, but even I was impressed by the selection and the high quality in the shops. A specific tip; go to Kotorska Suvenirnica at Stari Grad #352, where they sell beautiful handmade Christmas decorations all year round (made in Montenegro)

In Canada they speak Canadian, but there is a lot of English speakers too: ) I am just trying to be funny, referring to when you mentioned Serbian language in MN. It's all one language, literally, but different accent, Croatia, Bosnia as well.
Lovely video, enjoyed

Kotor was on the itinerary of the Cruise we originally had scheduled for July, but we cancelled it in favor of Traditional train trip around Europe. In case we ever decide to do the cruise, this video will come in handy. Thanks Mark, This was very helpful.
