Your Captain

Meet Vasilije.
Your Guide.

I'm Vasilije, and this is my home. I've been working on these waters for 7+ years, learning every hidden corner and secret of Skadar Lake since I was young. I run these tours together with my uncle Pavle. When you book with us, you're not just getting a tour — you're getting a personal guide and friend who truly loves this place and wants to share its magic with you.

What Our
Guests Say

"Absolutely unmissable. Doing the Lake Skadar boat trip is best from Rijeka Crnojevića, as it's nicer to start from the river side. We booked our trip even before we flew to Montenegro and Vasilije responded quickly and provided all the information on the various options and prices we needed to make a decision. Any follow up questions were also answered with detail and patience. Vasilije is very friendly and knowledgeable and we had a fantastic time on the trip. We really felt we saw a lot of the river and lake. He also made sure our kids could have a little swim and our son could even drive the boat for a while. Altogether it was an unforgettable experience (also important: definitely value for money) and I can highly recommend Vasilije!"
