Morning light skims the Ribnica and the city is waking: trampling shoes, the low hum of an air-conditioned car idling by the Millennium Bridge, and a guide pointing out a clock tower that remembered Ottoman watchmen. This private three-hour tour threads Podgorica’s recent history and its raw limestone edges—an urban walk through Tito-era boulevards and a quick drive to the Cijevna River canyon where the local “Niagara” throws itself over a series of small falls.
