Even better than we expected!

Even better than we expected! Beautiful countries with warm and welcoming people. Both Angelica and Drazen were absolutely fantastic to work with. They both covered ever fine detail of the trip and Drazen was there to take calls even into the evening. Bikes were great also. Got a flat and they fixed it for us. The accommodations were always wonderful with some stays in historical fortresses. A trip of a lifetime that we will always have fond memories of.

Wonderful customer support/Great hikes

Went ona hiking tour with a group of five the first week of October. An unexpected SNOWSTORM made some of our planned hikes inaccessible. Drazen, our 3e travel representative met with us personally on day one to discuss a new itinerary that would enable us to see different equally gorgeous scenery. He found us new accommodations and arranged transportation right away. He was available throughout the week whenever needed. I highly highly recommend this organization. And Montenegro is beautiful!

Our bike trip was simply perfect and the organisation was absolutely professional. The support from the agency (Angelika in particular) was warm, committed and always on hand when support was needed. The hotels were excellently chosen: charming, comfortable and always with a touch of local flair. After a long day on the bike, it was always a pleasure to arrive and simply relax. The routes led through breathtaking landscapes - mountains, lakes and the sea - and were perfectly harmonised. Challenging, but never overwhelming. For anyone who wants to discover Montenegro on two wheels: This tour is a must! I would book it again at any time. Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience! 🚵‍♂️🇲🇪

I rented a touring bike from these guys and they were brilliant. The bike was exactly what I needed for a 3 week tour of Albania and Montenegro and they supplied panniers too. Communication was good so it was easy to extend my rental and arrange a new dropoff date.

Top, Top Tour Operator

We set out to tour Montenegro by bike, hoping to explore as much of this beautiful country as possible in just three days—a challenging goal given the time constraints. Boris and his team exceeded our expectations, crafting an incredible journey that was both breathtaking and diverse. From towering mountains and tranquil lakes to stunning coastal views and rich wildlife, every aspect of Montenegro's natural beauty was included. We stayed in charming, character-filled locations that added to the experience. The tour culminated in an unforgettable 19-mile downhill ride into Kotor, which left our entire group in awe. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment that will stay with us forever. We opted for the 3-star hotel package, which, to be honest, felt more like a 2-star by UK standards. However, this didn't detract from the overall experience, and I'd suggest adjusting expectations if hotel quality is important to you. There’s also a 4-star option that might be better for those seeking a bit more comfort. The entire trip was fully supported, and the Trek (e) bikes provided were sturdy touring models with enough range (in eco mode) to cover each day's rides. Boris and his team also offered 24-hour support, and any necessary spares were on hand. All transfers were seamlessly arranged by Boris, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Communication was excellent both while we were in Montenegro and beforehand. A special note: we found it far more cost-effective to book directly with 3e Travel, cutting out the UK middleman. Overall, I can't recommend this company enough. I’m hoping to return in the not so distant future and I will, without doubt, use these guys again.

We recently completed a self-guided six-day trek in Montenegro, and the logistics were handled flawlessly. Everything ran smoothly, thanks to the professionalism and attentiveness of the team. They were incredibly accommodating to all our requests, which made the entire experience truly enjoyable and stress-free. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a well-organized and successful adventure!"

We couldn’t recommend 3e travel more highly! We did a self guided cycle trip in Montenegro for 8 days. The accommodation choices and itinerary were perfect for us, the support along the way to adjust to thunderstorms etc was above and beyond our expectations, and the communication always easy. What an amazing country- so much variety and charm! Thank you for a fabulous trip 🙂Kath

This was not the first time that we booked that kind of hiking trip but the first time we have been so well treated. 1A! Dražen was always there for us and helped us in many ways. Thank you so much! Montenegro would not have been so beautiful without you!!!

Amazing customised 10-day tour of Montenegro for 40 people

I cannot praise Angelika and the team at 3e highly enough. I wanted to organise a trip for 40 friends to Montenegro to celebrate my partner's 50th birthday. a friend recommended 3e. I contacted Angelika and explained our rather complicated requirements - with a combination of long hikes and adventure sports for some, relaxation for others, lots of culture and history, authentic experiences, good food and wine, hip locations and boutique accommodation, and all of it for not too high a budget! much to my amazement, she came back to me within 24 hours with a proposed itinerary which exactly matched our requirements - she immediately understood the style that our group was looking for, and after that we only made minor changes to the basic itinerary. From then on, everything about the organisation could not have been smoother - the communication back and forth was fast, the 3e team successfully greeted our guests arriving at 3 different airports on multiple different days, all of our guides and drivers were excellent, the accommodation in each part of the country was local and authentic as requested, and most importantly we got exactly the amazing set of experiences that we were looking for: skiing and show-shoeing, long hikes, stunning views, historical tours, private tours and tastings at vineyards, bee-farms, olive farms and herb farms, boat-rides, oyster tasting, and many excellent meals and wine-tastings. 40 people left Montenegro as ambassadors of the country, and we all hope to return again. If anyone is planning a trip to Montenegro or any of the neighbouring countries, I will always recommend the 3e team. our itinerary included many of the individual experiences listed on this page and all were excellent: hiking the Ladder of Kotor, an amazing hike from Stari Bar to Lake Skadar, culinary and wine tours around Lake Skadar, a boat-excursion and oyster feast on the Bay of Kotor, a guided tour around Cetinje, etc.

A wonderful day

My husband and I requested a custom tour, which ended up including food and wine tasting and a cookery class with some local families. We had a really wonderful day, I was very impressed how much we were able to personalise the tour to what we wanted. The tour guide was very friendly, and we were able to find out and experience so much more than we would have on our own.

Wonderful Montenegrin food and cookery tour

The Feel Montenegro team organised a great custom tour for me and my partner; a food and cookery tour which visited some local families, including the honey and wine farm. We got to cook and taste some amazing food and local produce. Our guide was brilliant and we learned a lot about the area, the country and scenery was beautiful, and it was the highlight of our trip - can't say better than that! Very grateful to feel Montenegro for accommodating us on a very specialised tour!

Highlight of our trip

We were met by Janko our guild and immediately felt like we were spending time with an old friend. He whisked out group away to the top of a mountain with spectacular views. The bikes caravanned behind us in their own vehicle and once we all made our adjustments on the bikes, we were on our way. It was an old road that is seldom used and offered spectacular views from every elevation. We had the luck of entering into a goat hearding traffic jam and watched affectionately as they moved their way on. They were too cute! Upon reaching the bottom we entered a beautiful mosaic museum. We then headed to the Island of Gospa (Our Lady of Rocks) across from Perast. All the while we had been touring Janko shared the rich history of the area. We ended the tour, and Janko was so enthusastic that we should at least see Old Town before we left. So he took a few extra minutes with us after the group disbanded and gave us a little private walking tour. He was truely a professional and we would love to come back again. Our kids were spell bound by the beauty of the region, and so were we. It's a must see.

Rented a touring bicycle for a week

I rented a bicycle from Feel Montenegro (3etravel.me) for a week to ride through Montenegro and Albania. I had to use a mountain bike the first day because one of their touring bikes was returned in poor condition, but they were kind enough to bring me a touring bike in Budva the next day. They also provided a helmet, locks and tools. Staff were responsive and helpful, and I would recommend them for bike rentals. Montenegro and Albania are spectacular for riding!

Biking along Boka Bay

Our group of four did an escorted bike ride of approximately 14 miles along Boka Bay, while there on a cruise. Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable. The bikes were in great condition and we had a beautiful time enjoying the gorgeous scenery in Kotor!

A genuine taste of Montenegro

Loved this experience - saw some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever come across in my life, and cannot rate the guides highly enough. The food, prepared by Vlado's parents and eaten on their farm, was exceptional and copius. Only note is that this is pretty expensive - one day costs almost the equivalent of one month Montenegrian salary. But we'd do it again, well worth it for us.

Tour of Montenegro

We hired three mountain bikes for a 5-day tour of Montenegro, stopping in Podgorica, Budva, Kotor and Niksic with a day trip to Dubrovnik as well. We had a great time and the bikes did not let us down. They and came with panniers, helmets, maps, inner tubes and repair kit all included. The service offered by Boris, Vlado and Pavle was fantastic and very friendly. We had some minor techincal problems with the bike rack but they went out of their way to solve them in no time. I would definitely recommend them.

Exhausting but amazing day

We left Dubrovnick at 7.00 and travelled to the border of Montenegro. The views were amazing and just got better. Our first stop was Kotor Bay and the Medieval town.The maze of alleys were full of beautiful shops , churches and museums. We contuecccocccccccccccl we left Dubrovnick at 7.00 a.m. and continued to the border of Montenegro. The scenery was beautiful and we arrived at our first stop of Kotor Bay and the medieval town of Kotor with its maze of alleys - there were churches,museums and some really upmarket shops. From there we ventured up to the mountains - the roads are very narrow and winding - where we had lunch in a small village. Then the journey continued down to Budva an ancient town but which is now a lively tourist resort. Again there r a maze of alleys in the old town that reach down to the sea. This tour gave us an insite into some really ancient towns and to see some really amazing views.

The best company out there!

3E Travel were amazing. We were a group of friends who hiked Durmitor with them and went on a multi-day cycling tour through the Bay of Kotor.

Cycling: Ladder of Kotor

Our 26 year old son, LOVED the extreme decent and fantastic views. Me, I was less enthusiastic about the riding as it is all about braking and I am not great with such heights. I am an experienced cyclist and very comfortable on a bike. So “Very Good” is the composite rating. Our guide drove us to the top of the mountain for a tour of a small farm house. Be sure to use the bathrooms located near the farm house as this is your only option on the tour. The bikes are well maintained and have disk brakes. The ascent is a bit scary and the decent more so. You do ride with with vehicles along the route down and you should be comfortable on a bike. Views are spectacular. We were a group of six with some riders wanting to go faster and some liking the pace. Guide was very nice.

Lost Booking

So we booked a self-guided tour through Viator/Tripadvisor and turned up at the main gate as instructed at 9am. After waiting a while, we phoned the office who said they had no record of the our booking. To be fair, the office were very apologetic, and they got back to me fairly promptly to say that they had found our booking (but had missed it), managed to source bikes (from a different travel office) and offered a full refund in addition (which we didn't take, because we still went!) The route itself was great and we enjoyed making our own way around the bay. It's hard to get lost and is pretty flat for the most part. As a final point, we noted that the cost of renting the bikes at the local office where the bikes were sourced was significantly cheaper than the online booking. So if you don't need the certainty (and that can't be promised!) then consider booking when in Kotor from a local agent.

Riding brakes and fighting traffic

We hired bikes and tour leader to ride from the Lovcen Park down the Austro-Hungarian road down to Kotor. It's a steep ride, so the most exercise you are getting is with the use of brakes. It's a scenic ride, with 24 switchbacks, but it is also the main road up to the park, so we were battling the tour buses coming up as we were riding down. This was a major disappointment. I wish we had taken the olive grove tour with bike ride instead. It would have provided more cycling and less traffic management. The tour guide was fabulous, however, and did the best she could.
