Review of the $37 Skadar Lake boat tour to Kom Monastery, with wine, water lilies, wildlife, swimming, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.

“Our guide Petar was knowledgeable, friendly, humorous & entertaining. Lake Skadar was beautiful, the bird & plant life abundant. I truly enjoyed visiting the monastery & seeing the frescoes. Lovely wine & home made pastries were a nice touch! The only down side is we did not get to swim- apparently where Petar had planned for us to swim, the wind kicked up a bit so it was a no-go😪 swim”

Review of Kingfisher’s two-hour Skadar Lake boat tour from Virpazar, with mountain views, wildlife, swimming, local wine, and practical tips.

“It wasn’t hard to find the location to pick up the tickets—parking was available just before the bridge, which made everything easier. The trip started right on time, and overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable experience. During the boat ride, the guide could have shared a bit more information, as the commentary was quite basic. That said, we still enjoyed ourselves. The welcome wine was a nice touch—and it turned into more than just a glass! Our family ended up sharing a whole bottle, which was a pleasant surprise 😅 We later found out that this isn’t always the case, but we appreciated the captain’s generosity and gave him…”
