Explore the Adriatic gem
A Montenegro cruise whisks travellers away into a world of beauty and enchantment. Rugged mountains, mediaeval villages and a strip of beaches lining the Adriatic Sea – name it and Montenegro has it all! Despite being one of the smallest countries in Europe and the tiniest fully recognised Balkan country, Montenegro doesn’t fall short of phenomenal natural diversity and rich turbulent history, with top-notch gastronomy and pleasant sunny weather to add to its lustre.
This Adriatic gem is home to Europe’s deepest canyon and the world’s second next to the Grand Canyon – the Tara River Canyon. Drifting through the Tara River, also called the Tears of Europe Rapids, is a quintessential experience for adrenaline junkies. Where the Bay of Kotor meets the Adriatic Sea lies a fortified town named Kotor, the gateway port of Montenegro cruises. Once you enter the Sea Gate to the Old Town, meander through the winding streets and you’ll come upon several Romanesque churches, charming boutiques and historical monuments within the walls. If you’re feeling a little more adventurous, hike to the hilltop fortress and catch breathtaking views of the Bay of Kotor and the ancient town from above. A Kotor Bay boat trip will transport you to a nearby island, Our Lady of the Rocks, steeped with fascinating stories and legends!
