Highlights

With '' Monte Mare Travel '', start a tour of Platije - an impressive canyon that leaves breathless. The canyon persists through the vertical rocks and cliffs, which rise up to 1,000 meters above sea level. In departure, you will enjoy the view of the canyon from the height, while in return we pass through the narrowest and deepest part of the canyon where we take a break for photographing this natural force. The Railway Belgrade - Bar line, 476 km long, is considered to be the most attractive railroad in Europe. Its construction lasted for 25 years, from 1951 to 1976. It was put into operation on May 28, 1976. Then the '' Blue train ''; passed through the line, where the first passenger was former Yugoslav president Josip Broz Tito with his wife Jovanka, and the state leadership of all republics and the Federation. In this train, the then president hosted many political leaders including: Nehru, Nasser, Arafat, Breschnew, Mitterrand.

About Kotor

Kotor is a walled medieval town at the head of a winding bay in Montenegro, with mountain walls, Venetian palaces and a fortress high above.

Kotor lies at the end of the Bay of Kotor, a deep, winding inlet often described as a fjord, though it is really a drowned river canyon, with steep mountains rising directly from the water. The old town, a UNESCO site, is enclosed by Venetian-era walls and entered by the Sea Gate, and inside are small squares, a clock tower and the Romanesque cathedral of St Tryphon, consecrated in 1166.

Top-ranked sights in Kotor: Bay of Kotor, Our Lady of the Rocks (Gospa od Skrpjela), Kotor Old Town.
