River tubing – Discover Podgorica

MORAČA RIVER TUBING

A real hidden gem of Podgorica

Most visitors never imagine that just minutes from Podgorica's city centre they can float through the crystal-clear waters of the Morača river, swim in hidden spots, and relax by the riverbank after the tour. While locals have enjoyed this natural river game for generations, it makes its official debut as part of Podgorica's tourism offering for the summer 2026. Starting near the ancient Roman city of Doclea and ending a short walk from the city centre, this guided experience combines nature, history, and relaxation along the Morača in a way few capital cities can offer.

The Experience

Drift downstream through one of Podgorica’s most scenic and refreshing summer spots. While a few short, beginner-friendly rapids add a touch of excitement, this isn’t an adrenaline rush - it’s a relaxing yet active summer escape. Expect a mix of floating, swimming, and active hand-paddling on calmer sections, while your guide uncovers local history along the way.

Ending Point

The tour ends just a short walk from Podgorica's city centre, restaurants, cafés, and nightlife. No additional transportation is needed. Many guests choose to relax by the water with a cold drink before continuing their evening.
