3 Monday Dobreč Beach and the Blue Cave Boat Tour Roko Palmic Sales and Marketing Director Once you arrive at Regent Porto Montenegro, the beauty of Boka Bay, a UNESCO world heritage site, is right in front of you, inviting you to explore. After your morning coffee and breakfast, start your day with a boat trip to secluded Dobreč beach. Relax while listening to the sea and enjoy the wonderful surrounding scenery. The expert team at the beach s authentic, local restaurant will prepare a refreshing drink for you. My suggestion for the next stop would be one of the local fish restaurants nearby. Savor freshly caught fish and other seafood, prepared in a traditional way paired with a Montenegrin wine of your choice. Following that, take a boat trip to see the Blue Cave and witness the miracle of nature the waters are a kaleidoscope of blues.

Make your next stop the Savina Monastery which is located on the hill from where you can enjoy the wonderful view. Besides enjoying the stunning beauty and peace the Monastery offers, you should also try the wines from the Savina Winery and Vineyard set in the gardens of the Monastery. Part of the Monastery s vineyards were given to the Obradović family, making them become the first registered wine producer in this area. The tour of the Savina Winery and Vineyard will introduce you to the secrets behind successful wine production and take you on a memorable journey through the authentic tastes of Montenegro. After experiencing the Savina Winery and Vineyard, you may make your Tuesday in Boka Bay even more special by going on the Boka Bay boat tour.

5 Wednesday Njegoš Mausoleum, Ivanova Korita and Cetinje Elena Ljiljanić PR & Marketing Manager Visit Njegoš Mausoleum, set at the top of the second highest peak of Lovćen mountain, where you will gain insight into the heart and soul of Montenegro s past and its people. Petar II Petrović Njegoš was a Prince-Bishop of Montenegro, a poet and philosopher whose master pieces are considered among the most important in Balkan literature. Climb 461 steps to reach the Mausoleum and chapel built at the behest of Njegoš, and be rewarded by truly amazing views of the surroundings. The next stop of your Montenegrin adventure is Ivanova Korita, the perfect setting for a picnic in the fresh mountain air, right in the center of Lovćen National Park. For the more adventurous, the Adventure Park in Ivanova Korita is a great choice. On your way back to Regent Porto Montenegro, stop by the Royal Capital of Montenegro Cetinje - and continue exploring Montenegro s rich history. `` A great tour for families and all nature-lovers`` 5

6 Thursday Boka Bay Samy Ibrahim Spa Manager Once you are in Regent Porto Montenegro, located in the very heart of Boka Bay, there is no excuse not to visit two hidden jewels of the Adriatic: stunning Our Lady of the Rocks and St George. Ten minutes long boat ride takes you to the most iconic church built in 17 th century on the artificial island which was made by citizens of Perast - the coast s prettiest Venetian village. This church is also a home to the small museum, which contains an assortment of stone monuments, frescos, and relics. Be sure to read up on the legend of the island s creation - an essential part of its magic. Your next stop Perast: This impeccably preserved, UNESCO protected hamlet was the last place on earth to fly the flag of the Venetian Republic. Today it is a jewel in the Boka Bay s crown and an ideal lunch spot. Intriguing shore line will take you to Kotor built between 12 th and 14 th century, known as the city of traders and sailors. This medieval town hides exquisite list of places-to-visit as well as a long list of exciting summer event. Combine with a boat ride around the Bay for the ideal day trip. 6

7 Friday Ribarsko Selo Restaurant Željko Knezović Executive Chef For those who are willing to discover a real taste of the Adriatic, a short boat trip to Žanjice beach set a terrific start for a truly unique experience. Famous for its pristine water and spectacular sunset, Žanjice is a home of one of a kind Ribarsko Selo restaurant. Elegant yet cozy setting and direct access to the beach deck is an ideal setup for a perfect summer day which is perfectly complemented by simple yet divine gastronomy concept which is based on the catch of the day. Every day between 11 and 12 am local fishermen visit the village and bring in the newly caught fish and sea food. Catch of the day concept is upgraded with fresh local ingredients and vegetables organically grown in nearby garden. The unmissable holiday spot 7

8 Saturday Pržno Cove Žana Zeković HR Manager Pržno Cove is one of Montenegro s most charming villages, originally a fishermen s village, and filled with history. The locals have preserved the traditional way of life and so you can still spot them coming back from the sea with their boats full of fish. This beach is ideal for family weekends where tasting the best local food is the must. Today, there are more visitors from all over the world visiting the restaurants, but the food is just as good. My recommendation: A scenic walk down the old path along the sea from Pržno to Sveti Stefan, through Miločer Park. The walk will take you by King s beach and Queen s beach where you will see Villa Miločer which was built almost 100 years ago and served as a residence for the royal family of Yugoslavia. `` The Adriatic as it used to be`` 8

9 Sunday Skadar Lake Dragan Bespaljko Concierge Manager For all nature-lovers, a one-day trip to the Skadar Lake is a must do for the the holiday Agenda. The Skadar Lake is transboundary wetland shared among Albania and Montenegro. This sensational National Park holds numerous secrets waiting to be discovered and tales about the glorious past heard. The site of the breathtaking beauty holds the number of the interesting facts among which the most prominent one should serve as the introduction only: Skadar Lake is the largest lake of the Balkans, it is the home of the Dalmatian Pelicans and one of their last breeding colonies not to mention that it shelters more than 40 islands and islets. The day tour to the Lake shall include a boat tour of it, a visit of one of the local restaurants where the home-made wine and other delicious Montenegrin specialties brought to the table with the warm Montenegrin hospitality. The special shades of green invites the romantic ones and the active ones to discover numerous faces of this Lake on its own terms. A wild wonder waiting to be explored 9
