★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $113

Review of a private four-hour kayak tour on Skadar Lake, with fortress visits, swimming, drinks, gear, transport, and practical booking advice.

“Highly recommended! Amazingly beautiful views, great conversations and refreshingly active. It was so easy to communicate with Milija and his instructions were very clear. I really enjoyed hearing from him a lot about what life is like in Montenegro but also getting some historical context and information on the region. We kayaked on quite a wavy day (the previous day was very rainy) so it was physically quite hard, however on calm days I would believe it can be done by people in moderate shape as well. I highly recommend this activity!!!”
