A dynamic, exciting and unforgettable experience that combines Montenegro whitewater rafting, astonishing natural landscapes and the best local food!
Age, rafting and swimming experience are non-factors. Our professional and helpful rafting guides will insure that everyone enjoys a safe and thrilling adventure.
We start Tara Rafting Tour from our meeting point at 7:00 am.
After 20 minutes our first brief stop is the small baroque town of Perast, where we’ll see two famous islands – Our Lady of the Rocks and St. George – a perfect photo opportunity!
As we ascend above Risan Bay the magnificent views escalate - so, we stop to take photos of the rising sun above this majestic panorama. Leaving the Bay of Kotor behind, we continue to traverse ranges of lofty peaks.
We soon pass by Salt Lake, located near Nikšić, the second biggest city in Montenegro.
Another hour of driving takes us along an especially awe-inspiring vantage of Piva Lake – near Plužine town.
Piva Lake is 45 kilometers long and almost 200 meters deep! This is the largest artificial lake (reservoir with drinkable water) in the Balkans.
We’ll take a quick top at the 220 meter high dam – where you can view the wide and deep turquoise water on one side – the narrow ribbon of river discharge on the other.
We continue our Tara Rafting tour through the Piva River Canyon, unquestionably one of most dramatic and breathtaking road passages in Montenegro.
During about 30 kilometer distance we’ll drive through 56 hand-made tunnels which harmoniously blend into the natural landscape.
On the sharp cliffs and high steep walls of the canyon take note of the Black Pines that grow strait from the solid rock. Some of these trees are over 450 years old and can grow to heights of 30 meters.
It’s around 10:45am and we’re finally at our ultimate destination – the Tara River.
A traditional Montenegrin homemade breakfast is served at a restaurant along the riverbank, from which you can see into Bosnia (the river is a natural border between two countries).
Everyone is completely outfitted for the river adventure - all you’ll need is a swimsuit to wear underneath (cotton shirts or underwear are not recommended)
We’ll then board mini-vans to head towards our rafting launch point - 30 minutes away.
Allow the adventure to begin!
Tara River is one of the natural wonders of Montenegro - along with being its longest river (144 km). Known as the “Tear of Europe”, due to its pristinely clean, drinkable water.
The Tara is the deepest (up to 1,300 meters) canyon in Europe and second deepest in the WORLD (just after the Grand Canyon of Colorado!) Transparent blue, green and turquoise waters clearly expose every rock and fish through our river course - understandably, your adrenaline-pumped attention may be elsewhere!
There are numerous waterfalls descending from the surrounding cliffs – the most renown being Skakavica – with a water temperature which never goes above 4 degrees Celsius (39.2 F) where we stop for “an ice shower” and drinks at Bosnian land (passing to the other side of the river).
The section of the canyon we’ll descend is 18 km long - with 21 rapids out of a total of 50 that exist on the Tara River.
Licensed professional skippers will take care of you and make your day unforgettable!
For all adrenaline seekers, ask your skipper to point out cliffs and rocks particularly good for jumping into the water! Just make sure your GoPro is on!
Along the river we’ll have stops for jumping and swimming. Wet suits will help a lot but have in mind that river is cold all year around.
The flowing river takes us back to the base camp, where we change back to dry clothes and enjoy a delicious traditional Montenegrin lunch.
Around 4:00 pm we are likely ready to hit the road back to Kotor.
We’ll continue towards and arrive back in Kotor around 7:30 pm.
When applying, please have in mind summer traffic jams and unpredictable delays on sites - so the return time could be later than proposed.
We always do our best to respect the time schedule.
Thank you and welcome to the best Montenegro rafting experience!

26.06.2020 11:53:35Rafting on the Tara, driving through the canyon, and experiencing a taste of local foods left absolutely nothing to be desired add that to the historical knowledge and quick wit of our guide and this was a fun-filled, unforgettable day! This is a must do trip for anyone up for the adventure!

27.08.2019 14:34:14We had an amazing day at this tour. The drive to the rafting camp was very long, but also very beautiful. We had a few stops to enjoy the views and take some photos. And also our guide told us so much about Montenegro during the drive, so it wasn't too bad. The rafting was a lot of fun!!! The water was quite calm, but for us (first time rafters) it was perfect. The water was so clear and the mountains looked spectaculair. Our rafting guides were very professional and made you feel safe. They were also a lot of fun, they made everyone laugh!! Just one thing: the planning said that 19.00 would be the time that we would be back in Kotor, but we we arrived around 21.45 in Kotor. For us this was no problem, but just keep that in mind.

26.08.2019 16:24:16Thanks for the tour! It was really nice. I would like to give a special thanks to Luka, who is the best guide I've ever had. Awesome person! I will definitely recommend the tour to my friends :)

19.08.2019 20:09:37This is really the best activity and day of our vacation in Montenegro. Everything is well organized and the day is really full of surprise . We took that excursion with the full familly and all of us are saying the same thing.. this must be done... You can put my name next to it with pleasure.
Almira Tan
18.08.2019 14:21:32The tour was amazing. I didn't just experience rafting but also see the other beautiful sites of Montenegro. Nina was such an enjoyable tour guide as well. She was very friendly and approachable. It was also very convenient, from meal preparation to getting our gears, the transportation going to/from the rafting camp and Kotor. The rafting experience was not scary at all and we felt very safe in the raft even kids or beginners can try it. I would recommend for anyone visiting Montenegro to try this.
Roberts Contreras Lopez
16.08.2019 13:02:22Had a blast, met great people, 10/10. Our guide Nina was super helpful, professional and engaging, along with her instructor mates who were all very qualified and fun. Thanks again!

06.08.2019 16:53:30We really enjoyed our rafting tour! It was a very amazing adventure. Thank you so much! Our guide was really nice and tould us interessting things The only thing we wanna recommend is that we thought this wild water rafing tour is a litte bit more dangerous and faster. And it is a litte bit sad that we were not allowed to take our 12 year old brother with us . Because on the webside there is written 13+ and you have to bring the ID card. But in the end there were 3 children on board. All in all it war a geat trip and we loved it!

06.08.2019 11:37:11We had an excellent day. Picked up promptly from Kotor Old Town and transferred on a comfortable minibus. Our host on the bus was Luka and we made several stops on the way including Perast, black honey tasting and the Tara river dam. When we arrived we had a hearty late breakfast of meats, cheeses, bread and fruit. We had a vegetarian and a vegan in our party and both were taken care of in terms of food. Once we'd eaten we got kitted up with wet suits and life jackets and then taken over the border into Bosnia to the starting point of our rapids adventure. Our "captain" on the raft was Sergan, he was very friendly and lots of fun - he really added to the trip. After a quick safety talk we were off down the river. The surroundings are beautiful and the river itself crystal clear (and also extremely cold!). We were in a raft with four others. Our own party consisted of a 15 year old, 21 year old and their 2 middle aged parents. The activity was great for all of us and no one felt uncomfortable or out of their depth. There were a couple of stops to do some cliff jumping and walk underneath a waterfall - but there was no pressure to do these if you don't want to. There was also the opportunity to get out of the boat and swim or float down the river. We all had great fun and would thoroughly recommend it. Once the rapids were completed, which took a couple of hours, we were back to the restaurant for dinner. Orders had been taken at breakfast, so everything was ready and, again, our vegetarians and vegans were catered for. We then headed back to Kotor with a couple of stops on the way to stretch our legs. All in all, we would highly recommend the whole experience. It was well planned, lots of fun, all our guides were excellent and it was good value for money.

21.07.2019 21:26:12We heard about rafting on Tara River from a friend and decided to try it out. We are so glad we went with 360Monte! Although the tour started in Kotor, they accommodated pickup/dropoff to/from Budva. Nina and Stefan were our guide and driver and they took excellent care of us! They made sure we were happy and comfortable all day. Would definitely recommend going with this group! Two minor things to mention. First, make sure to have a sweatshirt or something with you as it's a bit chilly in the mountains (especially during breakfast). Second, the actual rafting guides are great but a few were smokers and I saw them throwing cigarette butts into the water. I said something to one and he picked it up. They really need to respect nature and understand with the number of smokers I saw just in that day, if everyone does that, they're going to ruin the river not to mention their livelihood.

18.07.2019 21:42:51Die Tara Rafting Tour hat super Spaß gemacht. Unser Guide Luka hat uns super begleitet und interessante Stories erzählt. Dadurch ist die Tour vielmehr als nur eine Raftingtour und man lernt auch super viel über Land und Kultur. Essen war super lecker. Skipper und auch Fahrer waren super kompetent. Preis Leistung super:)

07.07.2019 16:23:25I did this trip with my 2 sons and we absolutely loved it; it was the highlight of our holiday in Montenegro. We were well looked after by our tour guide and raft driver, they were friendly and knowledgeable and took time to make sure we got the most from our trip. We also loved the food and the riverside bars...all in all a highly recommended trip, thank you!!
Mikko Suur-Askola
02.07.2019 15:40:28Rafting is super fun, especially the part where you can jump into the rapids. All was good, no complaints whatsoever, only positive feelings. I would like to do this again some other time, so much fun and releases stress from work. Thanks to Luka, you were such a nice host!

Annika Evisalu
10.06.2019 17:30:28We got so much more, than just rafting! Luka was the best guide and Nikola leaded us on the river. The weather was bad, but perfect for rafting. At the bright side, we didn't get sunburned. Water was about 8°, so the rain was like hot shower to us. 😄We had a time of our life! The only bad thing was, that it ended so fast. 😄 Wish You all the best! Estonian girls PS! Sorry if names aren't correctly written.

Kaja Bogdan
30.09.2018 17:54:10Our Rafting trip with 360Monte was excelent! We had really high expectations but they didn’t let us down! Not only is there the whole rafting thing but you can also see a more rural part of Montenegro, talk to locals and eat really good lunch (we all recommend fish option). Our guide, Ognian was by far the best part of the trip! Very friendly and funny with perfect English :) He knew all the answers and made us feel really welcome! Thank you for everything :)

20.09.2018 10:12:15We had a fantastic day with 360.monte. Our guide Luca went above and beyond to give us the best experience possible. He made additional stops on request to take photos and provided us with really interesting information about Montenegro and its history. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him and he didn't even get mad when i accidentally stole his sunglasses :D We would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a real taste of Montenegro.

17.09.2018 23:44:37The daylong rafting trip was lots of fun. The rafting guide was great, and the scenery was beautiful. I would highly suggest this trip!

08.09.2018 15:05:52We really enjoyed the day. Luka was fantastic. Really friendly and helpful. Enjoyed photo stops and the food and restaurant really friendly too. Rafting was good perhaps not as exciting as we hoped but water was low which can’t be controlled by you

20.08.2018 14:35:52I couldn’t recommend this trip more it was the absolute highlight of a two week holiday. We left Kotor at 07.30 and Slavco was very knowledgable and really made the journey fly by making sure to stop at key view points and provide us with any information worth sharing. We arrived to the rafting start point and had a lovely and plentiful breakfast. The rafting was amazing and we were out on the water for quite a while, the water is the most beautiful I have ever seen. We got back to the base and had a tasty 2 course meal before heading back. We didn’t rush back and Slavco made sure to make key stops. I’d highly recommend and I can’t wait to do it again!!! It makes me want to book a trip back straight away :). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

16.08.2018 09:30:28Ceo dan je bio 100% organizovan!! Nismo očekivali prelep prekid putovanja, tako smo vidjeli zaliv Kotora sa visine, prelepu crkvu itd. zajednički doručak i ručak je bilo sjajno, upoznali smo strani ljudi, dobro smo ušli u razgovor! naš lider Miljan na čamac je bilo divan!!!! profesionalac, vrlo fin! vožnja nije bila dosadna, miljan uvek imao neku iznenadjenje. voziti pod vodopad i koreografija na vodi. pozdravljam ga puno!!!! naš vodič Luka je izuzetno odano! vidi se da voli njegov rad! veoma otvoren i prijateljski. kulturni program - profesionalac!!!!! Želim da kažem jednu belešku, Luka priča odlično engleski! ja sam sve razumela, ali su mi rekli naše francuske saputnici, za njih je bilo suviše brzo nisu sve razumeli. sve u svemu, imali smo jedan nezaboravan dan i hoćemo da se zahvalimo za to! puno pozdrav i za Luke i celu grupu 360monte Stafanie iz nemačke

05.08.2018 18:11:28It was an amazing trip with breathtaking views. Fully professional guide who told a lot of interesting facts about Montenegro. Delicious, local food and very hospitable people. Rafting itself was unforgettable adventure. We were equipped with wetsuits, footwear, life wests, helmets. The skippers were professional although we expected to hear a bit more about Tara River and canyon.

25.07.2018 14:19:57In my week in Montenegro myself and my partner went on two tours through 360.Monte the Tara rafting tour (with Luka) and the Great Montenegro tour (with Jelena) - both were well organised with really friendly, informative guides. I would recommend the tours to anyone who is in Montenegro and actually wants to see the country not just the beach/pool!
Rosemary Okoli
25.07.2018 09:04:42This tour was definitely one of the highlights of my trip! It came as described but the experience exceeded my expectations. Rafting the rapids was so amazing and the views from the river were phenomenal. I can’t rave enough about this tour! Breakfast and lunch were fantastic and our tour guide was good fun. I’ll definitely do this again.

11.07.2018 14:54:17Our family of five had an awesome day river rafting. The river is incredibly beautiful and the guide was excellent. We felt very safe. It was the perfect amount of time on the river. The food was pretty good. The meat was cooked in a traditional way which was really interesting to try. A very memorable day!

03.06.2018 15:39:03It was a very nice tour! When we started there was a problem with our bus so we had to wait for another one. But this slight inconvenience was compensated by the emotions of rafting and general experience of the tour. Our guide Luka was very pleasant and professional. Thank you for a wonderful day and unforgettable experience!
Anna Gibbs
14.05.2018 15:17:46Very easy to book and join in the tour. Tour guide was good and we saw some nice views on the way to the rafting. The scenery is amazing and worth going just for this. We really enjoyed the rafting for the views and a few rapids along the way. The only thing that was a little tough was getting down and to the raft as it was pretty slippery and rocky. The breakfast and lunch were good and filling too. Thanks very much :)
