Next, venture out onto the glistening waters of Skadar Lake on a 2-hour long boat cruise. As you sail across the tranquil surface, allow yourself a moment to enjoy the untouched beauty of the surrounding mountains and lush greenery. The boat will take you to one of the quiet beaches on the lake as well, taking the time for swimming breaks. You will have a chance to swim in the clear water of the lake. Skadar Lake is home to 280 species of birds and 50 species of fish. If you are lucky, you will get to see the pelicans, symbols of Skadar Lake.

After the boat cruise, you will enjoy a wine-tasting experience with traditional Montenegrin starters. Some of the best Montenegrin wines come from this region due to its unique geographic position and fertile soil.

Finally, you will make your way to the charming town of Virpazar, where you’ll embark on a walking tour.
