The Bay of Kotor (Serbian and Montenegrin: Бока Которска / Boka Kotorska), also known as the Boka, is the winding bay of the Adriatic Sea in southwestern Montenegro and the region of Montenegro concentrated around the bay. The bay has been inhabited since antiquity. Its well-preserved medieval towns of Kotor, Risan, Tivat, Perast, Prčanj and Herceg Novi, along with their natural surroundings, are major tourist attractions. The Natural and Culturo-Historical Region of Kotor was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. Its numerous Orthodox and Catholic churches and monasteries attract numerous religious and cultural pilgrims.
Perast (Serbian Cyrillic: Пераст) is an old town in the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro. It is situated a few kilometres northwest of Kotor and is noted for its proximity to the islets of St. George and Our Lady of the Rocks.
Kotor is a fortified town on Montenegro’s Adriatic coast, in a bay near the limestone cliffs of Mt. Lovćen. Characterized by winding streets and squares, its medieval old town has several Romanesque churches, including Kotor Cathedral. It's also home to the Maritime Museum, which explores local seafaring history.
Budva is a town in Montenegro on the Adriatic Sea. Part of the Budva Riviera, it's known for sandy beaches and nightlife. Stone walls built by the Venetians surround the narrow streets of the medieval old town (Stari Grad).

It was really great trip in a small group. Fantastic guide Darko, talkative and funny. Thanks to him we found out a lot of interesting things. Thank You 🙂
Had an amazing day exploring Montenegro. Darko was a brilliant guide and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the day. Can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you!
The guide Darko was great. I was travelling solo and he was kind enough to take some snapshots of me when we stopped to take pictures at scenic viewpoints. Along the route he gave info and history on places we were visiting, local cuisine suggestions and got us through both border crossings with a minimum of hassle. The trip was well planned and he kept us on schedule with clear instructions on drop off and meet up times and places. He posted his location when it was close to the meet up times so we could find him, as some of the places are busy and a confusing to navigate and everything was self guided. Perast, Kotor and Budva are beautiful and the boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks which costs an additional 10 EUR is well worth it. We stopped there first, so nothing on the island was open yet, but since we were the first group to arrive it was not super hot and we had the island to ourselves. It was a long, hot (35C) day with a lot of destinations crammed in, so the transportation to each place was a nice rest in the air conditioned van! Well worth spending the money for the convenience of not having to plan or drive and having a guide.
Our day trip to Montenegro was unforgettable, with breathtaking scenery, rich culture, and fantastic food. Special thanks to our driver Petar, who ensured a safe journey and enriched the experience with his extensive local knowledge—Montenegro truly exceeded our expectations.
Perfect way to visit Montenegro while staying in Dubrovnik! Petar was a wonderful driver and gave us great information along the way. 3 stops in total, with a total of 5 hours of stopping divided in the 3 stops. Perast 1 hour, Kotor 2 hours, and Budva 2 hours. Also the border crossing was made a lot easier with a small group! Since we left early, we had a very short wait on both sides of the border! Highly recommend while in the area!
Great experience. The guide was fabulous and looked after everyone. He was great with children. Lots to see. Good overview of Montenegro. Well managed border crossings to avoid lots of waiting. Air conditioned car. Would definitely do another trip. Thank you
Great day trip! We had a great driver and tour guide Darko who gave us lots of history and information about each stop as well as pointing out cool things along the way. I would recommend this tour for those looking for a day trip to Montenegro!
This trip was great. Our driver / host, Ivo, was fantastic - it was so much fun and we learned a lot of interesting history from Ivo - he was also really nice and thoughtful. The cities visited were cool and there was a lot beautiful scenery on the drive and at the various locations - the smaller tour group setting gave us a better opportunity to meet other travelers too. We had so much fun - would highly recommend. Thanks, Ivo!!
We were picked up on time. Darko was professional, provided useful and interesting information. Drove us safely and on time. He knew ways to avoid long border wait times so glad I went with the small group. 8 people. Border wait time was only 10 to 15 minutes. Andrea was very prompt to answering questions. We seem to always arrive at location a head of crowds so it was great. Glad I chose Dubrovnick Smile. Thank you!
Enjoyable, loads of info, the driver/host was wonderful too.
