Tour programme
A city walking tour that will introduce you to Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, and it's administrative, cultural and economic centre.
The wider area has been inhabited since the Stone Age, but its urban history starts with the arrival of the Romans in the 2nd century B.C. Dating from the period of Illyrian-Roman wars, Podgorica was always at the crossroads for Greek travellers, Roman legionnaires, Byzantine messengers, Serbian noblemen, Venetian merchants, Turkish invaders, Montenegrin warriors...
More than 70 bombings in the Second World War have wiped out many buildings and monuments from the previous centuries. During our 90 minutes walk, we will pass by some of these remaining traces of the previous centuries but will also take a look at the way the city was rebuilt during the communist period and in the later decades.
Trg Republike, Novaka Miloseva, Podgorica, Podgorica Municipality Monteneg
Our meeting point is at the centre of Podgorica – Independence Square (formerly Square of the Republic), at the fountain. In case of rain, the guide will be positioned by the Societe Generale Bank, under the eaves surrounding the square.
We will pass by Municipality building, briefly stop in front of the statue of Marko Miljanov, one the famous generals and writers from the end of the 19 century.

Sastavci, Moraca Ribnice, Podgorica, Podgorica Municipality
Sastavci or Skaline is a very picturesque site, but admittedly uncared for. Above the confluence stand barely visible ruins of the fortress of Ribnica. These are known as Nemanjin grad, as it was here that Stefan Nemanja who subsequently founded Nemanjic dynasty, was born.
