White Water Rafting on Tara River
The River Tara is the longest and most beautiful river in Montenegro. Its canyon is world famous being the second deepest in the world after The Grand Canyon! It is also known throughout Montenegro as ‘The Pearl of the Mountains’ with water that is drinkable along its entire flow.
Tara is also really interesting for its extreme sports. First of all rafting! Rafting is really popular as for the locals same for the tourists. There are plenty of companies and agencies who can offer you to go rafting, but the main and the most important thing for you to know is who are the professionals. You can not go with anybody, because this could be dangerous, and in that case you would prefer to have a pro next to you. Advice, for choosing the agency to go rafting with, you can get from the Local Tourism Boards, when you are in Montenegro, or you can contact us. There are different kinds of offer, and those mostly depend on the length of the rafting. There are: one-day rafting (12 or 30 km long) from 9:30 am – 2 pm or from 2 pm – 5 pm or two day rafting (75 km long). If you decide for longer one you will stay one night in the rafting camp, eating national food and hanging out with the locals. Rafting can be tremendously fun and you need to be an adventurer spirit to like it. On the spot where it starts you get all the equipment needed: special suit, helmet, special shoes etc. Remember, water is freezing even in the middle of the summer, so you need to put on all the equipment you get from the organizer. Everyone joining one rafting boat needs to work hard as a part of the team, to make one rafting success. Price is 35 € per person with breakfast and lunch included if you choose one day rafting. If you are staying over the night in the camp, then you pay for the accommodation too.
Tara Zip Line
If you prefer heights rather than depths, you should choose an activity on Tara River where you see this river from the air. Tara Zip Line was invented by the people living in the mountains, because they needed a way to transport things from one mountain to another on the places where it wasn’t possible to build some bridge or any kind of a road. This style of transportation represents a touristic attraction today. Metal cables are placed between two hills, and a professional team will prepare you to slide down the cable from one side to another. This is unique opportunity to take magnificent photos, to see mountains from different angle and to actually see the second largest canyon in the world from a unique perspective. The thrillng ride takes about 10 minutes, but the feeling after it lasts much longer. Price is 20 € per person.

Serpentine Walk
If you are keen on hiking, then Montenegro is the right destination for you! We suggest you to go hiking from Kotor to Lovćen by foot and to experience a wonderful time of your life. In the old times there was a market in Kotor. People from the coast were selling tobacco, ships were importing goods from overseas and the residents of the central part of the country, especially Cetinje and villages around, were coming to market to buy the things they needed They travelled on foot, but they always brought donkeys with them, because they couldn’t walk back, up on the mountain, with all the things they bought!
