Guided tours – Explore and experience with a knowledgeable tour guide.

If you value perfect organisation and would enjoy the security of exploring with an experienced guide, our guided tours are ideal for you. From accommodation to food and transportation – everything is arranged. Our trained and certified guides accompany you throughout your entire trip.

Most accommodations also offer packed lunch service (€ 5-6); please inform them the evening before your departure.

It’s important to layer your clothing for different climates, as our tour may traverse cool high mountain passes one day and warm valley lowlands the next. 

Rain in the mountains can occur unexpectedly. A helmet is a must unless you have made other arrangements with us. 

In the event of lost luggage, we will provide you with a helmet and riding gear until yours arrives.

Essentials:

• Helmet
• Suitcase/backpack/travel bag for your main luggage

Our fleet of rental bicycles comprises models from 2018 onwards for all our tours. When booking, make sure to provide us with details so we can reserve the most appropriate bike for you. 

You can choose from touring bikes, road bikes, or e-bikes for all hard surface tours. MTB tours are indicated separately. 

We offer the following sizes: 

• Touring XS – XXL, 
• Road bike 48 – 58, 
• Ebike S-M-L, 
• MTB 15”– 21”. 

Along with the rental bikes, you’ll receive a waterproof pannier (20 l), a repair kit, spare tyres, and a helmet (disinfected, but we advise you to bring your own). All bikes have two bottle holders. Please bring your bottles.

If your tour includes border crossings, these are easy. Everyone must have their passports or ID (EU citizens) on them at all times. Just show your passport; usually, you have to show it twice, when leaving and again when entering. If you have our luggage transfer service included, please make sure your luggage is not locked.

The routing follows small side roads with little traffic. In Montenegro, there are no bike lanes except in the capital of Podgorica and Tivat. You are shuttled to avoid any longer sections on main roads, which might get stressful since main roads in Montenegro are busy and narrow.

Montenegro’s natural diversity is reflected on your plate or glass. We recommend asking for local dishes which each restaurant will proudly present to you. 

In the northern and central parts, sheep and beef are popular and very delicious. 

In the central part, Podgorica, Cetinje, and Lake Skadar, you’ll find lake fish, vegetables, and of course, a glass of ‘Vranac’ wine to make your day. Always ask for local cheese, as it’s an essential part of Montenegrin cuisine. 

Cheese from Njegusi, Pljevlja, or Kolasin is well-known, but any homemade cheese will match those easily in quality and taste. 

Coastal Montenegro offers fish and seafood. For example, in the Bay of Kotor, we’re happy to organise an oyster and mussel tasting right at the mussel farm – a nice treat while cycling. Another highlight for your taste buds is Montenegrin olive oil, produced all along the coast from Ulcinj to Herceg Novi.

You can spice up any of our tours with tastings of local products. We encourage you to taste wine, olive oil, honey, dairy, ham, and oysters with wonderful families along the way. 

Wine and food tasting experiences range from € 10 – 25/per person depending on the kind of tasting. 

Please get in touch with us for details.

Should you wish to delve deeper into a certain topic or the history of a place, please contact us. We gladly organise the perfect expert for you. We can link you to local activity providers offering city tours, bird watching, sea kayaking, (speed) boat tours, crafters, cooking classes, and more.

While travelling without an accompanying vehicle, it is your responsibility to reach the next hotel every day, even in adverse weather conditions or if you don’t feel like walking anymore. However, in case of serious trouble such as a physical emergency, call our emergency hotline, and we will provide as much support as possible, whether by sending a van or advising you on public transportation options such as trains and buses.

The coastal walks are gentler, requiring 5-6 hours, and elevation gains up to +900 m, leading across less remote areas.
