We saw all the sites and had a great time. This is only for a driver and our driver didn’t speak very much English so it wasn’t a guide. If you need just to get around the sites without a guide we would recommend. Very fun day!

Our driver Davor was very friendly and helpful, giving us umbrellas when it started to rain. (Please do read carefully that this is just for a driver and not a guide. He had very basic English.)

Great scenery but the trip to see Sveti Stefan is only from a lookout looking down on it from afar so it’s really not a visit. Make sure you see that this tour is only with a driver. Our driver was nice and drove very well but he is not a guide and his English skills are very basic so conversation was limited at best.
