Sveti-Stefan

Join us to enjoy rest, relaxation and exploration in two

countries – one fêted as an idyllic, holiday retreat, and the other rapidly emerging from decades hidden from the world and now keen to share its historic past. Delightful Montenegro and beautiful Albania – part of Twelfth Night’s magical, Kingdom of Illyria – wait to welcome you.

From your comfortable hotel base, you’ll join some wonderful included excursions, heading first to Budva, one of the Adriatic’s oldest settlements, with its beaches and picture-postcard-perfect Old Town. You’ll also take in impossibly beautiful island village Sveti-Stefan, the ruins of ancient Stari Bar, the spectacular Bay of Kotor and UNESCO-listed Kotor town, and another tour journeys inland to beautiful Lake Skadar. A final excursion sees you cross into Albania, for decades hidden behind the Iron Curtain, but today welcoming curious visitors to its beautiful landscape and hillside Krujë with its ancient Ottoman bazaar selling handcrafted curios. With plenty of time to enjoy leisurely lunches by the shore, this is a wonderful Mediterranean holiday with a difference.
