Skadar Lake National Park: Guided Boat Tour to Kom Monastery

1.Skadar Lake National Park: Guided Boat Tour to Kom Monastery

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,344 reviews · 3 hours · from $37Our pick

Boat through Skadar Lake’s narrow canals to Kom Monastery, past Lesendro ruins, with wine tastings and time to swim.

“Excellent experience with Yohan and the folks at Kingfisher. Views are stunning and the guide was generous in anecdotes and stories. Only « down » side, if there is any, was the visit to the Monastery. It’s basically a walk up to a place where they sell honey and local products made by the monk who lives there… but no visit of the Monastery, as advertised.”
