A delightful and delicious tour through old town with Jelena. A terrific historian, Jelena wove in stories and insights among the various food stops — all of which were tasty. The fresh mussels did not disappoint and were the highlight of the tour. Food was plentiful, the conversation was engaging making for a perfect day with Jelena. Super enjoyed.

Our private group of 7, including kids, had a great tour! Our guide met us at the port and communicated well with me through WhatsApp. To start our tour, we stopped by the farmer's market and tried a whole bunch of different olives and some local alcoholic drink and some punch. We walked through the Old Town and learned about the history and local buildings and then we had a wonderful lunch at the Square Pub which included a lot more food than I expected! The lunch included local cuisine like mussels and black risotto and also a whole variety of meat, bread, dips, etc. The tour was the perfect length and we had the rest of the afternoon to explore on our own. Highly recommend!

Our guide Jelena was a lovely lady and was very knowledgeable about Kotor Town, and was very passionate about it too. She met us as described and was waiting for us at the meeting point. After walking around some of the streets and being told what was what we then went to a restaurant to sample some of the local foods. Mostly this was ok but my husband has been very poorly following this food - he must have eaten a dodgy mussel and has spent the last two days in bed which has ruined our holiday. Not the fault of Jelena at all but because of this I cannot give it 5 stars.

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring Kotor with Jelena and that you appreciated her knowledge, passion, and warm approach. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to her.

While we work with trusted local partners and have not received similar reports, we understand how disappointing this must have been and how it affected your trip. We sincerely hope that he has made a full recovery. Thank you for recognizing that this was not related to Jelena's guiding service. We value your feedback and will continue working closely with our partners to ensure the best possible experience for our guests. We appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Montenegro in the future. Kind regards, Miro & Sons Team
