The Ostrog Monastery was built in the XVII century by both people and nature. Carved inside the cliff of the mountain Ostroška Greda, it represents the most sacred place, visited by religious people from all around the world. Famous for its healing powers of Saint Basil relics, Ostrog Monastery is the most visited religious place after Mount Athos and place where Christ was buried.
It is located 900 meters above sea level, in the central part of Montenegro, with two-hour drive from Kotor.

This is tour is a must if you’re staying in, around Kotor. Nikola our guide made the day so brilliant. He was friendly, chatty, knowledgeable of the places we were visiting, nothing was too much trouble for him.
Picked up for our hotel at a time we chose, stoped for Turkish coffee on route, and told all about the monastery and the area from Nikola.
Great views for the bay from high up in the mountains! We had a brilliant day and cannot recommend Nikola or the service enough. Even if there was some fog that slightly blocked our view from the bay, was all still brilliant!

This was such a great day. We ended up getting stuck for more than an hour in road construction so this became a much longer tour. Ostrog was beautiful. Make sure and wear pants or something to cover your knees.
He ended up being able to drive us to the top instead of us walking, since we were so delayed in traffic. We came home a different route so we would not have to wait in construction again. It was a beautiful route down the mountain zigzagging through switchbacks. Our guide was knowledgeable, funny, knew history of the areas we traveled through, pointed out different landmarks, knew
where to stop for photo opps, what restaurants to eat at in Kotor. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

This was a fantastic tour with the right balance of a relaxing pace while at the same time seeing a lot. The trip to the Monastery was great with a lot of suspense as we drove higher and higher in the mist only to find the clouds and rain clear up for our arrival. We had a leisurely trip back to kotor stopping at a picturesque restaurant with a terrace overlooking the hills for coffee and also a stop in Perast. Our tour guide, Milan, was very friendly, helpful and entertaining throughout.
