Globtour Dubrovnik Budva recent customer reviews

The coach broke down, the driver couldn't communicate with us and we were stuck at the side of the road in Montenegro for an hour. The coach was dirty and the ceiling was leaking and no one sat in their allocated seat.

Absolutely awful. I am still on the bus that was meant to arrive over 5 hours ago. I am using the time to start a charge back claim

The drive was beautiful. The driver was fun but there was a bit of misunderstanding with there being no English spoken by him. He seemed quite rushed so maybe a little relaxation on your part to give him just 10 extra minutes to do his job. Overall was fine and a very good price.
