Itinerary
The Blue Cave is about an hour from Kotor, and the scenic speedboat ride through the Bay of Kotor and into the open Adriatic Sea is an experience in itself. Once we arrive, you'll have around 25 minutes to enjoy one of the most beautiful spots on the Montenegrin coast. Sunlight enters the cave and reflects off the seabed, turning the water a bright, glowing blue. You can swim and relax while surrounded by this magical natural phenomenon.
You will enjoy a panoramic view of the fortress on Mamula Island, a small, circular island at the entrance of the Bay of Kotor. Once used as a military fortress, it stands strong against the sea, offering a striking and memorable sight from the boat.
Here, we will visit the former submarine tunnels along the coast of Luštica Peninsula and go inside. These hidden tunnels were once used to shelter military submarines, and today you can explore them by boat and experience this unique piece of history up close.
Beautiful artificial island which began forming in 1452 when local sailors started dropping rocks after successful voyages. Here, you will enjoy views of this island and St.George while you are walking in Perast, one of the most beautiful towns in Montenegro.
Pass by the peaceful island of St. George, known for its centuries-old Benedictine monastery and cypress trees. Together with Our Lady of the Rocks, it creates one of the most recognizable views in the Bay of Kotor.
You will have 20 minutes of free time in the old town of Perast to walk, relax, and enjoy its quiet charm. This small, historic town is known for its stone houses, narrow streets, and beautiful views of the bay, making it a perfect spot to take photos or simply soak in the peaceful atmosphere. After this, return to the starting point in Kotor.

Everything was as stated in the group VIP package, super professional crew/captain and deal customer service

We put a lot of attention into keeping our tours well organized and making sure guests know what to expect. It was a pleasure having you on board.
It was good experience, to beat the heat and take boat tour/ride during day time. Girl at operator office was kind and helpful, so does the captian and his crew member.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're glad you chose to spend part of your day on the water and that our team looked after you from the moment you arrived at our office to the end of the tour. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to our office team, captain, and crew member. We truly appreciate you joining our boat tour and hope to see you on board again in the future.
Fantastic private boat tour! The kids loved swimming in the beautiful area by the private cave. The water was crystal clear, the scenery was breathtaking, and the crew was friendly and welcoming. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Kotor. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your lovely words. We're so pleased to hear that your family had such an enjoyable time with us. It's especially nice to know the swimming stop was a highlight for the kids and that the beauty of the bay made your visit to Kotor even more memorable. We truly appreciate you choosing us and hope to welcome your family on board again in the future.
Very good experience. The team is very friendly. The blue cave is very beautiful as well as the whole trip in the bay.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the beauty of the Blue Cave and Boka Bay. Our team works hard to make every tour both enjoyable and memorable, so your kind words truly mean a lot to us. Thank you for choosing us!
It is probably written somewhere in the travel description that you actually ride a motorboat for 2 hours, then can swim for 15 minutes in the open sea near the Blue Grotto, and then go back; for us, the sun canopy broke after 10 minutes, so we sat in the midday sun the whole time! Was not great!
I would like to clarify a couple of points regarding your experience. The duration and itinerary of our 3-hour Blue Cave tour are clearly outlined in the tour description, including the approximate cruising time to the Blue Cave and the time allocated for swimming. This is done so my guests now exactly where they will be at every point during the tour. Regarding the sunshade, it developed an unexpected mechanical issue shortly after departure. Unfortunately, this was not something that could have been anticipated or safely repaired while the boat was operating. The issue was addressed immediately after the tour and the sunshade was repaired before the boat returned to service. I understand that the lack of shade affected your comfort, particularly on a hot day. However, this was an unforeseen equipment issue rather than a normal condition of our boats. I take maintenance and the comfort of my guests seriously and addressed the problem at the first safe opportunity.

Fantastic customer service. We had to change the time and they worked with me to do this. Boat was not overcrowded and super fast . The young skipper and his mate were wonderful and very informative.
