Registered on August 24, 2023

With a background in managing 5-star restaurants and bars, I've interacted with people worldwide and realized their curiosity about Montenegro. Combined with my passion for biking, kayaking and hiking, it has driven me to transition into tour guiding. So now I'm licensed tour guide and - for the beginning - I would like to show you the best of my hometown. Welcome to Podgorica !

Was a great morning!! Starting with the fact that Nikola was so patient because at the beginning I couldn't find the meeting point, and continuing with the fact that I was the only person in the tour, all the time he was very kind and attentive!! He explained me the history of the city and places from both a personal and historical point of view. The walking was completely interesting, cannot think in a better way to know this particular and amazing city. I highly recommend this tour!! Thank you!!!

A fantastic GuruWalk. I really enjoyed it and was the only one on it so I got lots of time to ask as many questions as I wanted. Nikola really knew his stuff and explained everything in just the right detail. It was a fascinating afternoon.

Nikola fue un guía excelente. Nos encontramos en el punto acordado a la hora exacta. Se adaptó a nuestras necesidades y se preocupó de llevarnos a lugares que no conocíamos de Podgorica. Al final del recorrido nos recomendó un par de sitios económicos para comer y tomar café. Recomendable 100%!
