It’s a unique opportunity to see contrasts of Montenegro in just one day. The departure is from the sea coast to the Skadar lake and Zeta Plain, along the winding way through the fascinating canyon of the Morača river which will raise your adrenaline and give you delight.

Visit to the Morača Monastery - one of the most famous historical and cultural monuments of Montenegro, the endowment of Nemanjić from 1252. For centuries it was a spiritual, enlightening, cultural and liberating center. It is surrounded by a high stone wall, with lodgings in the courtyard, decorated with frescoes and artistic carvings.

The most monumental painting of the Moravian cycle represents the prophet Elijah, persecuted, standing alone in the mountains, lonely, with a sole raven that brings him food.

The road takes you past Kolašin and Mojkovac along the Tara canyon... is one of the most beautiful canyons in the world, with its length of 82 km, in some places it is 1300 m deep, it is the second largest canyon in the world after the Colorado canyon. The canyon is not only the beauty of Montenegro, but also a natural pearl of planetary importance, so it was included in the UNESCO world heritage list. The Jurjevicha Tara bridge is one of the most visited destinations in Montenegro and one of several largest and most beautiful bridges in the world.

Since 1980, Durmitor National Park has been on the list of UNESCO's World Natural and Cultural Heritage. There are 18 glacial lakes in the park which give a special charm to it. The most beautiful among them is the Black lake. You will return to the Adriatic coast by another way but no less beautiful. It leads through Nikšić to sea side.

The return to the Adriatic coast takes you through other, no less beautiful areas, via Nikšić to the sea coast.

In the evening, return to the hotel and have free time to walk around the city.
