Budva is a lively resort, with a handful of first-class beaches to pick from. The old town is characterised by Venetian houses, bell towers and shady piazzas.The oldest part of Budva has been in existence since around 400BC and since then, its swapped hands several times – Greeks, Romans, Slavs, Venetians, Turks, Saracens and Austrians have all made their presence known. The Old Town (Stari Grad) is Budva’s showstopper, offering winding streets, historic churches and a centuries-old citadel to explore. But this walled fortress is also the ideal place to sit back and relax with a drink, or enjoy a spot of souvenir shopping in the quaint shops. There are spacious beaches and the resort is filled with restaurants, bars, pavement cafes and shops - there really are plenty of things to do in Budva.

Cuisine-wise, Montenegro has an extraordinary choice of dishes to show off. As you’re on the coast, perhaps you will want to try some of the seafood dishes in one of the harbourside restaurants. Squid, octopus, tuna, shrimp and mussels are almost guaranteed to be prepared to perfection - black risotto with cuttlefish is worth asking for if you're seeking inspiration or something a little different.

Although you’ll find no shortage of things to see and do in Budva itself, it also makes an ideal base for exploring other parts of the country. Spend a day sailing the spectacular Kotorska Fjord, – an awe-inspiring, fjord-like inlet that carves its way from the mountains out to sea. Enjoy time at sea and view the beautiful coastline from a different angle and enjoy some delicious seafood on our fish picnic by boat.

Excursions & Itinerary

Day 1 Fly to Tivat or Dubrovnik

Fly from your chosen UK airport to Tivat in Montenegro or Dubrovnik in Croatia. On arrival you’ll be met and transferred to our hotel in Becici.

Days 2 to 7

During our stay we have arranged a programme of three included excursions. There are also three days at leisure when you can relax in the comfortable surroundings and enjoy the extensive leisure of our hotel, or explore our resort and nearby attractions.

Fish Picnic by Boat

We meet our local guide after breakfast and head to the harbour, where we board our boat for a panoramic cruise along the most beautiful stretch of the coastline. After sailing out of the harbour of Budva, we pass the island of St. Nicola, the hotel-island Sveti Stefan, and some hidden exotic beaches. We’ll stop at one of the beaches for a picnic fish lunch on board, with a drink included. After lunch, you’ll have the chance to swim in the crystal-clear water or simply relax in the sun. Later this afternoon, we return by boat to Budva.

Kotorska Fjord & Kotor

After breakfast this morning our coach takes us to Tivat, where we board the boat which will take us into the breathtaking Kotorska Fjord which is surrounded by dramatic mountains. The sight of them, combined with calm sea water, will take your breath away. As the only fjord on the Mediterranean, Boka Kotorska was added to UNESCO’s list of 25 of the most beautiful bays in the world in July 2000, the others being mainly in Scandinavia. We pass through a narrow passage, Verige, and nearby small coastal towns – Lepetani, Stoliv, Prcanj, Muo and the old town of Kotor, which is encircled by ancient walls. In the heart of the Bay we stop at the small island, Gospa od Skpjela, to visit a church from the 17th century - a well-known holy place decorated with 68 frescoes painted by famous baroque painter of the area, Tripo Kokolja. At the end of our cruise we disembark in Kotor and return by coach to the hotel.

Budva Old Town Walking Tour

Step back in time as we explore Budva’s enchanting Old Town on a guided walking tour. Enclosed by centuries-old stone walls, this historic quarter is a charming blend of narrow cobbled streets, hidden courtyards, and Venetian-style architecture. Our guide will lead you through its fascinating history, from its ancient origins to its time under Greek, Roman, and Venetian rule. Along the way, you’ll discover some of Budva’s most iconic landmarks, including the Church of St John, the Church of the Holy Trinity, and the impressive Citadel, which offers stunning views over the Adriatic. As we stroll through the bustling squares and shaded piazzas, you’ll also have the chance to browse quaint boutiques, admire local art, or simply soak up the lively atmosphere of this coastal gem. After the guided tour, you’ll have free time to explore at your own pace. Perhaps enjoy a coffee in one of the charming cafés, pick up a unique souvenir, or wander down to the picturesque harbour to watch the boats drift by. This relaxed tour is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the history and culture of Budva, all while enjoying its beautiful seaside setting.

Day 8 Fly to the UK

It’s farewell to Montenegro today, returning to the airport to catch your flight back home after a fascinating week in this little-known Balkan country.
