Geotoura – Hotel concept

When we include a hotel in our programme, it is not only a high standard of quality that is important to us. We prefer typical local accommodation, often boutique hotels with a special ambience. They emphasise the character of an individual trip: Panoramic views, particularly lovely furnishings, a location in historic centres, no mass tourism and, of course, exceptionally friendly hosts – these are important criteria for us.

We divide our hotels into four separate Geotoura categories. Of course, you have the choice and can also combine the categories on one trip.

Boutique Hotels – Four categories

Encantador (“Charming”): Our most affordable option. Lovingly furnished rooms that offer everything the discerning traveller expects.

Especial (“Special”): Hotels with a special ambience – historic palaces, monasteries, haciendas or beach hotels with exceptional charm. Perfect for the classic cultural tour.

Extraordinario (“Extraordinary”): Luxurious hotels in excellent locations and with the highest level of comfort, often in centuries-old aristocratic palaces, old oil mills or haciendas.

Luna de Miel (“honeymoon”): For the honeymoon – span. Luna de miel – or if you want to treat yourself to something out of the ordinary …

Character of this travel idea

On this 9-day round trip through Montenegro, discover a country where the clocks go a little slower, a country with charming, rather small towns and stunning natural landscapes.

Experience culture

Podgorica is a lively metropolis. But even here you will discover places where time seems to have stood still. One of them is on Gorica Hill – a tiny, rather simple little church: Sveti Đorđe. Built around the year 1000, the small church is one of the oldest buildings in the city. When you step inside, you are greeted by artistic frescoes from the 17th century. Duklija, the ancient city that flourished long before Podgorica and now lies just outside the city gates, is also lost in time.

The meadows have since conquered the ancient city. However, the ground plans, columns, stonemasonry and inscriptions still tell of life at the turn of the century, when the ancient Romans were in charge here.

Experience nature

Montenegro’s national parks are the perfect opportunity to get away from it all. Enter the wild realm of bears and wolves, majestic eagles and giant vultures in Durmitor National Park. In this landscape, you will wander through a Europe as it may have looked everywhere before the arrival of man.

Here in the silence at the end of the world yawns the gigantic Tara Gorge in the Durmitor massif. The gorge is up to 1,600 metres deep. So it’s no wonder that goose bumps creep down your spine when you look down from the bridge to the river.

Montenegro - unadulteratedly delicious

Not only the landscape of Montenegro is rich in contrasts, but also its cuisine. Freshly caught fish and seafood, smoked carp or bleak from Lake Skadar and gratinated eel make the hearts of fish lovers beat faster.

Do you prefer meat? Then how about air-dried ham or sausage from Njeguši? Or maybe you prefer lamb or goat meat boiled in milk and cooked under the bell, which is also roasted under the bell together with potatoes. These typical dishes can be found on almost all Montenegrin menus. The country’s cheese specialities are also delicious, such as the cheese from Njeguši, the cheese from Pljevlja, which has been awarded a quality label, leaf cheese or the kajmak produced in the north.

High-quality olive oils, honey, morels, dried apricots, figs and the popular cornelian cherry are other ingredients that flavour dishes, desserts and juices. A good meal also needs a good drop of wine. A particularly good wine is the white Krstač, the Vranac or Čubrica, which is aged for years in wooden barrels. Let your palate be spoilt by the regional finesse.

 

The authentic Montenegro

Get a little closer to the marvellous nature on an individual guided tour through Biogradska Gora National Park than on a hike alone. Discover a rare European rainforest at Biogradsko Jezero and get to know the large and also the very small, inconspicuous and yet interesting inhabitants of the park.

You can't plan a trip better than Geotoura did for us. Starting with the extremely friendly correspondence and support from the customer service team, to putting together the route according to our wishes and the personalised travel guide, right through to the choice of hotels. It was an absolute dream holiday in Portugal with memories that will last forever! We had no administrative hassle, everything went smoothly - we will definitely book with Geotoura again and again!

I would like to thank Geotoura for the fantastic tour of the Peloponnese. I felt well looked after from start to finish, all my individual requests for the route were addressed and the tips on the route were great. The accompanying material - the personalised travel guide - was great. And everything worked out perfectly on site. The accommodation ranged from great to fantastic and the people there were super friendly and welcoming. The mix of sea and culture was just right. I'd be happy to go again and again, I'm already looking forward to my next trip with Geotoura.

Geotoura organised a great trip to northern Spain for us, tailored to our individual needs: the route, hotels, flights and the booklet with information and tips put together especially for our trip were simply perfect.

‘Handing over’ the organisation of our trip to Scotland to Geotoura was the best decision! Everything worked out perfectly, the choice of hotels was superb and the tour (from Glasgow up the west coast to Thurso in the north and then back down the east coast to Edinburgh) was perfect. The visit to the Military Tattoo in Edinburgh was the highlight and the crowning glory of our trip. Even the weather played along and it only rained on two days in total during our three-week trip. Thanks to the organisers - it was perfect.

If you have a flair for Arabic, Oriental and African customs and traditions, Andalusia is the right place for you. It's amazing what the Andalusians have done with all these influences. From snow-capped mountains to the sea in 2 hours by car. From fertile regions to absolute drought in less than 2 hours by car. Geographically as interesting as it is culinary.

We were very satisfied with Geotoura. Good service, great start to the holiday. Travelling to adventurous countries like Albania requires exactly that.

We organised our holiday trip with Geotoura for the first time. The travel plan to Madeira with hotels and company car was perfectly organised by Geotoura in advance. Our wishes were fully accepted and implemented. We were travelling as 2 adults with 3 children and were satisfied throughout. We will organise our next major holiday with Geotoura again.

The trip to Northern Spain with Geotoura was very successful overall. Beautiful hotels, great cities, some of which could be described as as yet undiscovered gems, travel planning that worked one hundred per cent and saved us a lot of our own time. We have already recommended Geotoura to others and would book here again at any time. Thank you very much for the wonderful moments!

We are completely satisfied with Geotoura - this is already our third trip with this provider. Everything is perfect: competent and friendly telephone advice, patient attention to our special requests, careful hotel selection, perfect travel documents, everything delivered on time, and the Portugal trip itself fully met our expectations. Well done!
