Description

The tour begins in the early morning with a 2 to 3-hour drive to Šćepan Polje, depending on your departure city.

Upon arrival, meet your skippers and fellow participants for a traditional Montenegrin breakfast by the riverside (approximately 1 hour 30 minutes).

Next, prepare for rafting by fitting neoprene clothing, footwear, safety belts, and helmets equipped for GoPro cameras (about 30 minutes). Waterproof bags are available in the boats for cameras and phones, which can be used during breaks and in calmer river sections.

Then, take a 40-minute off-road drive to the rafting starting point at Brštanovica. The licensed skipper will provide detailed instructions before you set off.
