Why we chose this tour

Montenegro Tour By Train from Podgorica will immerse you in some of the most breathtaking natural features in Europe. This day trip takes advantage of the historic Belgrade–Bar railway to show you the best of Montenegro’s natural beauty - Platije canyon, Morača River, and one of the last three virgin rainforests in Europe, Biogradska Gora, which contains a rich array of flora and fauna and a beautiful lake. Taking in the natural scenery will be interspersed with visits to Morača Monastery, and free time to roam around Kolašin and sample traditionally prepared Montenegrin specialties. This private tour is perfect for those who want to spend a day getting lost in Montenegro’s stunning mountain scenery and can be booked for any day of the week.

The tour will kick off at the train station in Podgorica, where guests will depart on a train ride that snakes through the peaks and cliffs of the Platije canyon. This scenic journey will take you past mountain peaks and the Morača river, crossing one of Europe’s highest bridges, the Mala Rijeka. The historic Belgrade-Bar railway line is famous for Yugoslav president Josip Broz Tito hosting train meetings with world leaders including Nehru, Nasser, Arafat, Breschnew, and Mitterrand.

After climbing to the railway’s highest point at the holiday town of Kolašin – 954 m above sea level – guests will get to stretch their legs before taking a sightseeing tour around the Biogradska Gora National Park- home to one of the last virgin rainforests in Europe, with a stunning natural lake in its heart. After some free time to wander around Kolašin and sample some of the local fares, the tour moves on to its last point- Morača monastery, a medieval Orthodox monastery built in 1252. Nestled against a backdrop of verdant mountains, guests will experience the harmony of the modest life led by the monastery’s residents.
