Tour starts from Kotor, driving trough old Austrian serpentine road for about 1 hour, all way uphill to the Lovcen mountain. Lovcen is National park where you would hike 461 stairs to the top of Jezerski peak, where is Njegos II Petrovic Mausoleum, our most important monument. You would have time to walk around and visit Mausoleum and monument of Njegos II and his tomb. After 30 minutes, we are going to restaurant for coffee or drink. Later we are going to Cetinje city to visit Cetinje Monastery, the most important Orthodox monastery in region, where are sacred relics of St Petar I Cetinjski and hand of John the Baptist. Close to monastery is National museum where you can see Icon of Holy Mother Filermosa which is the most precious icon in the World. Later you have short walk to visit Castle of King Nikola, which is today City Museum. On the way back we would stop to the village Njegusi to visit traditional prsuto production and have local food tasting or lunch, depends on your wish.

Truly an unrepeatable journey. The most exciting part was climbing over 461 steps to the mausoleum. The air is so clean and the view beautiful. As for the Cetinje monastery, I was surprised primarily by the fact that it was demolished and rebuilt three times. I carry so many impressions from this trip that it is even a shame to write longer. I recommend that you definitely visit those places if you are traveling to Montenegro.
