The best way to experience Montenegro's vibrant past and its mix of cultures is to immerse yourself in the streets of Podgorica, the modern capital, and wander through Cetinje, the capital of days gone by.
Your journey through time begins at the Clock Tower, and from here, you'll head into “Stara Varoš”, the historic center of Podgorica.
As you stroll its streets, you will come across socialist-era palaces and Ottoman stone bridges, and your guide will tell you just how all these places are intertwined.
To get to know the country's eventful history in depth, it is time to head to Cetinje: the old capital, which has retained its historic importance since 1482.
Within the halls of the National Museum, it feels as if time has stood still since King Nikola Petrovich I ruled: the rooms, furniture and clothes are preserved just as they were originally!
After filling up on history, it's time to eat: savor years of culinary tradition with a lunch served in a local restaurant.
