Njegusi
After the departure from your hotel, we will drive to our first destination for approximately 2 hours of travel time. The first stop for the day is Njeguši, the village known as the birthplace of the royal dynasty Petrović and a ‘guardian’ of the authentic architecture and cuisine in the region. Njeguški sir and pršut (cheese and prosciutto of Njeguši), a real treat for true food lovers, are genuine contributions to Montenegrin cuisine, produced only in this area, following the traditional recipe for smoking and curing meat. Tasting the most famous specialties of the region makes us ready for a breath-taking peak.
Lovcen National Park
The National Park Lovćen encompasses the central and the highest part of the Lovćen massif, covering an area of 6.400 hectares. On top of one of the mountain’s two imposing peaks lies a magnificent mausoleum – the tomb of Montenegro’s most significant person in history: Petar II Petrović Njegoš. It takes 461 steps to climb to reach. However, the journey is well worth the effort – you will be rewarded with a spectacular viewpoint from the world’s highest mausoleum.
Cetinje
The trip continues to the Old Royal Town of Cetinje, in which you will grasp more about the Petrović Njegoš dynasty and the history of our country. After such a fulfilled day, it is time to return to the hotel and finish our tour. The drive to your hotel will take approximately 1-2 hours of travel time.
