The Best Boat Tours in Virpazar

Lake Skadar Boat Trips in Virpazar, Montenegro

Today we, my wife and I and our kids aged 15 and 13, had a wonderful 3 hour tour of the lake with Golden Frog, hosted and guided by the excellent Ivana. She made every effort to personalise the tour information for each member of our family covering all kinds of topics from wildlife, the environment, politics and history. Ivana’s English was excellent, her knowledge was very broad and she was passionate about everything. She (and the Captain) knew where to find the wildlife and we spotted a very wide range of birds. The boat was comfortable and included basic refreshments - including a delicious water melon, local wine and soft drinks. I highly recommend this tour to any travellers visiting the lake. 😀

After reading many many reviews we booked a private boat tour with the Golden Frog to discover the Skadar lake. A beautiful and calm place. It was amazing! Ivana really knows a lot about the nature and wildlife around this area. She's a very communicative, positive and welcoming person and her English is absolutely perfect. It's an honest family business which I can highly recommend.

Ivana and her shipper welcomed us warmly and did a great job for our trip on the lake, it was really calm and we enjoyed it enormously, including a swim in the lake! She even knows the names of the birds in many languages including Dutch and her English is fluent! I highly recommend

We can warmly recommend the Golden Frog to all who wish a tour on the Skadar lake. Ivana was the perfect guide. So friendly and knowledgeable, while speaking great English. With her captain which could navigate the lake with closed eyes, they took us through the most amazing small channels and hidden gems along the lake. We were able to feel the passion these people have for their country and the work they do. At the same time, they respect the nature and people living at the villages, which is more than you can say for some of the competitors. Definitely worth the money - please do yourself a favor and chose these kind people and this respectable company, for your tour on the lake!

Really lovely boat tour; great communication beforehand, Ivana met us on time and was very friendly, and helped us buy the national park entry tickets just up the road (4€ per adult) before we returned to start the trip. There are no local public toilets on shore so make sure to factor in a cafe stop! The boat is lovely, and Ivana was attentive but not overwhelmingly enthusiastic - I think she read that we are happiest to sit back and enjoy. It was early in the season and there were blankets for our laps, and the offer of a complimentary drink halfway round. Binoculars helped us to spot some lovely birds. It was a fantastic tour & we would recommend this company.
