We took a full day tour to Mostar from Dubrovnik with Boris. He was wonderful in communicating our pick up point and pre-planning. He arrived on time with a clean and comfortable van. The ride to Mostar was approx 2.5/3 hours in which he gave us background info on the country, war, politics and anything else we asked about. He’s quite friendly and knowledgeable. We first stopped to see the Kravica waterfall and enjoyed a break and coffee there. We visited for about an hour and a half. We then proceeded to Mostar. Once in Mostar, we stopped for a few pictures and then had lunch at a restaurant he arranged for us in the heart of things. The food at this restaurant (wish I could remember the name) was my favorite meal on the trip! We ordered the national platter (had a little of everything) as well as other tasting platters. After lunch we watched someone dive from the bridge, followed by time to walk around town and see the 400+ year old mosque. Boris took great pictures of us throughout. On the way back we had an option to see an old Turkish built town but everyone was too tired. We returned to Dubrovnik by 8:30pm. Boris was a huge part of the success and enjoyment of the day! He made sure everything was well planned, smooth and fun! He even moved our tour around the weather as it was a rainy day!

We are on a 6wk trip around the world with two kids 9 and 10 and I can hand on heart say this was my favourite day of our trip. Marijan was possibly the best and most perfectly suited travel guide to any experience we have ever had. A veteran of the Croatian war of independence Marijan took us on a magical ride through the history of the former states of Yugoslavia and how each country arrived to where they are today. Our daughters were equally fascinated by his stories and descriptions and honestly Montenegro may be one of the greatest hidden gems for travellers in the world. Breath taking scenery like driving the Amalfi Coast, the walled cities of Kotor and Budva just take you to a different time and place. Marijan walked us into each of the walled cities and carefully walked us through the history. His patience and willingness to suggest things suitable for us was great. Convincing our girls to walk the halfway point to the church of the high walls of Kotor was a total highlight and Marijan reserving time so we could have a dip in Budva was incredible. I will never forget the day we spent together and going to the War Museum at Mt Srd the next day was so meaningful after his stories. Simply thank you

The tour company director advised us to go as early as we could to avoid crowds, because Montenegro doesn’t limit the number of cruise ships like Dubrovnik does. What great advice! We left at 7 a.m. Traffic was light-to-moderate, it was so much more relaxed than other crowded day trips we’ve taken, and the sights were beautiful. The history of the country is fascinating, and the views gorgeous. Our guide, Marijan, was so knowledgeable, friendly and caring. We can’t recommend him enough. It’s a long day, but worth it. Thank you, Marijan!

8 of us had a free day in Dubrovnik and decided to take a day trip to Montenegro. After a lot of research we decided to go with Dubrovnik Top Tours because of the price, ease of communicating with them to set up the tour and where their driver/tour guide would take us. We were so glad we went with them. First off, the driver, Boris Topalovic, was right on time to pick us up at our hotel. The van was very clean. Boris introduced himself and we immediately knew we were in for a very fun day with him. He is a character and had us laughing throughout the day. He was very knowledgeable about the entire Balkan region and really gave us a lot of history and culture of the differing countries in the region. He took us to all the gorgeous sites in Montenegro and recommended a great restaurant for lunch. He made sure we were comfortable in the van and at one stop, he dropped us off and then went looking for a place to park. When we were done, he ran to get the van so that we didn't have to walk a long distance to where he had to park. At the end of the day, we were running late and had dinner reservations at a restaurant so he called the restaurant for us and told them we were running late and he dropped us off at the restaurant. I would highly recommend Dubrovnik Top Tours if you are planning a day trip. Hopefully Boris will be your driver/guide because of his knowledge of the region and his crazy sense of humor. He literally had all 8 of us in hysterics throughout the day. BTW, his English is excellent so no issue in understanding him and he is a very safe driver.

we went on a day trip to montenegro with Daf, it was an amazing experience. The drive there, the sight seeing, and the trip as a whole was unforgettable. He made sure we were able to see as much of the country as possible without rushing any of us along. He was pleasant, enjoyable and the best driver we could ask for! Not to mention takes great photos.

We spent 3 days in Dubrovnik and took 3 tours with Dubrovnik Top tours (Mostar, Montenegro and Dubrovnik walking tour). We were assigned Boris for those tours. I would venture to label him Mr Dubronik or Mr Croatia!. Boris is a fantastic guide with a wealth of knowledge of history. He practically knows everyone on the street or more accurately stated, a lot of people know him. We had a very enjoyable time with him. We learnt a lot and saw the charm of Croatia. We never ran out of conversation. He can talk for hours on anything!. He was also very punctual and was also very flexible throughout those 3 days. Booking the tours was a breeze and Ivana who manages the company was very professional and prompt. I would give the highest rating for tours offered by Dubrovnik Top Tours. I highly recommend them.

Our driver, Boris, was excellent, tailoring the day’s tour to our interests and needs. We enjoyed the beauty of Kotor Bay and the lovely countryside outside Dubrovnik on our return. We particularly appreciated his driving us through some of the villages damaged by the war and his description of people involved in the fighting. It was a delightful way to sample Montenegro.

We had a great day traveling from Dubrovnik to Montenegro with Boris. It's a full day but his energy and enthusiasm throughout made it incredibly enjoyable. He provided so much good background, gave terrific guidance on what to see and where to go, and yet was flexible throughout the day adjusting to what we wanted to see and do. His love of all things Croatia (especially Croatia football!) was contagious. Boris seemed to know everyone we met whether it was at the border crossing, the parking at Perast, the shops in Kotor, or navigating with the restaurant for the perfect lunch table overlooking the Bay. We felt in great hands as he was so knowledgeable and gave insight into what to expect and perfect ideas for a wonderful day. He was on time and waiting for us with water and a friendly smile first thing in the morning, so we knew we were in for a good day. Our first stop was Verige for photos and then on Perast for some exploring and a boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks. Then on to the city of Kotor for a terrific lunch and afternoon of sightseeing. Lots of details taken care of in advance so the day was smoooth and hassle-free. The communication with Dubrovnik Top Tours, and Ivana in particular, was excellent. She was so detailed and quick & timely with her responses, and accomadating - incredibly appreciative. Great day!

This was a wonderful experience! We were picked up at our hotel in Dubrovnik and spent the entire day visiting coastal Montenegro, including Perast, Kotor and Budva. Our driver, MARIJAN SCAPEC, was amazing! He shared with us a great deal of history of both Croatia and Montenegro and skillfully and unhurriedly maximized our experience of seeing the most of costal Montenegro. We would HIGHLY recommend this tour and MARIJAN.

After reading many reviews of tours to Montenegro, we chose this one. It was everything we hoped for! Marijan was the perfect host and driver. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him. The day started with a conversation about Croatian history. My husband asked a great many questions and Marijan answered all of them. Marijan is very knowledgeable and very proud of his country and city of Dubrovnik. We chatted nonstop on our trip to Perast, Kotor and Budva. Marijan knew the best ways to go to minimize traffic and wait times at the border. He is a very skilled driver. Very thoughtful and kind. The cities were beautiful and Marijan gave us the history of each one. This day was wonderful in all ways and we would not hesitate to take another tour with this company. And we would want Marijan to be our guide!!! Thank you Marijan!!!!

Boris lived up to the stellar reviews we read on Trip Advisor! This day trip to the beautiful Bay of Kotor requires many hours in the car…but Boris’ depth of knowledge, coupled with his effervescent personality, makes it all enjoyable.

Great trip! Very informative and friendly tour guide; marian!! Beautiful scenic drive with stops along the way!!

Our day trip to Montenegro was fantastic. Boris, our guide, is incredibly knowledgeable, fun, friendly and enthusiastic and he was a fascinating source of information and knowledge. We had such a great day - the vehicle is large, comfortable and air conditioned and Boris made sure we had a very fast border crossing and continuously beat the crowds along the way while also knowing the best places to stop, organising a wonderful table for lunch and adapting the trip to the heat of the day. We had such a great experience - thank you Boris.

Our driver was fantastic! He talked about the history and current issues of the areas we visited. He gave us the option to spend as much time as we wanted at every stop and gave recommendations on what to do. He made sure we had time to visit Medugorje.

Dubrovnik top tours was really really TOPS!! Our guide and owner of the company BORIS was amazing.. very knowledgeable, extremely flexible, accommodating and really “read” our crowd of 10 perfectly. We loved his personal stories ( we egged him on!) and his ability to make all the history come alive but mostly he had a great sense of humor and kept us laughing for 10 hours straight! It was such a memorable experience and would highly recommend him and his company to anyone who wants to learn and laugh at the same time!
