Registered on April 15, 2022

I was born in this beautiful country of Montenegro and I believe that all people, at least once in their lives, should visit it. It is great for all types of travelers, whether those who like to travel full of adrenaline or those who like slow and easy days. Accordingly, I am ready to offer city tours lasting 2-3 hours, or on special requests, weekend gastro-wine tours, or full-day tours in Montenegro. For more information about private tours don't hesitate to contact me here.

Tour description

If no schedules are available for the selected date, please get in touch with me. Maybe someone won’t come but didn’t cancel.

Please cancel your booking at least 24 hours prior if you are not genuinely interested in my tour. Last-minute cancelation in less than 24 hours doesn’t help. Other walkers plan in advance, and they’ll find the tour unavailable because of the false bookings.
 

The tour starts in the oldest part of Podgorica city, in front of the Clock Tower, on the side looking at the clock, at Becir Beg Osmanagic Square.

As we walk along the narrow streets of “Old Varosh,” you will see essential monuments and townhouses and learn more about the old part of the city, its medieval ramparts, and the old bridge at the confluence of two rivers.
From the Ottoman period to the latest history, I am going to tell you some exciting stories.   
The tour ends in front of the Fountain at Independence Square.

Tour Include (mention): 


  • Clock Tower and Old Town
  • Starodoganjska Mosque
  • Depedogen Fortress
  • Stone bridge on Sastavci (river Ribnica Bridge)
  • King’s Nikola Monument
  • Petar II Petrovic Njegos’s Park and Monument
  • National Theatre
  • Bokeska Street
  • Municipality Building and Statue of Marko Miljanov
  • Library 
  • Independence Square (formerly Square of the Republic)


Additional Information:

The tour includes walking on stairs, but nothing strenuous. Choose walking shoes/sneakers that perform equally well in changing weather conditions. Also, don’t forget to bring water and a hat/sunscreen during summer. I’ll try to find some shade, though :)


IMPORTANT: MINIMUM NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS:
- Summer - 3
- Rest of the year - 2
(If this number is not reached, the booking will be canceled).
 - The tour will be called off if a hailstorm or heavy rain leads to street flooding along the route or being unsafe due to hail stones.  
- During the summer, the tour will be canceled if the temperature goes above 38° Celsius.

How much does this tour cost?

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).

"Exploring Podgorica's rich history with Tatjana as a tour guide was an enlightening experience. Her depth of knowledge and passion for the city's past brought each landmark to life, from ancient ruins to modern monuments. She skillfully navigated us through the layers of history, weaving captivating stories that made the city's heritage feel alive. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Podgorica's cultural tapestry."

Was a very nice tour lead by Tatjana and I learned a lot about Podgorica. It rained the whole time which spoiled the tour slightly but the weather is not Tatjana’s fault and I thank her for running the tour in the rain!!

Tatjana was full of knowledge about anything that anyone might want to know about Podgorica. She was well spoken, funny and informative. She also gave us great tips on where to eat (and what to eat) and what to see. Would definitely recommend her tour!
