Top Kotor Day Trips - page 3

Mirko was a great host for our short Montenegro stay. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about his country and we enjoyed our tour. We stopped at the oldest restaurant in the country and sampled their prosciutto and local wines. What a delight. With every twisting switchback combined with dense fog, we were grateful to have such a skilled driver.

Plus points: Excellent guide- Davor is an absolute gem. Lots of information and engages in a good discussion on topics. Good knowledge gained about the places and also the country. Most of the locations are well covered, especially the Skadar Lake tour and Njegos' mausoleum. Just be mindful- there are 461 steps to reach the mausoleum, but the ascent is worth it and also the view from the top. Make sure to pack extra layers as it can be chilly at this location. Good vehicle- minivan was comfortable. I would recommend this tour, especially if Davor is the guide. Negatives: The description mentioned that there will be a free Rakija shot- this didn't materialise. We just clicked photos of Sveti Stefan and Budva from a photo point, and passed through Budva. We didn't really explore Budva. Perhaps this can be included in the tours in the future. Cetinje walking tour- would have been great to visit Njegos' house (Billiarda). Unfortunately, couldn't do the cable car on that day (it was undergoing maintenance)- not the organiser's fault.

Jelena was a lovely guide, she was easy to talk to and she was keen to answer all our questions. She was very knowledgeable about Kotor old town and we found out a lot about the history of it and more about the culture of Montenegro. The food was good value if you like mussels, maybe consider a different vegetarian option than salad? The whole experience was very worth while and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

I have done many boat days in different countries and this one was perfect. 32 people seemed like a lot when reading the description of the tour, but the boat is huge and very well laid out. Our guide did a great job of giving some historical information while letting us just enjoy the ride the majority of the time.

Very informative walking tour. Jelena (the guide ) is a delightful and friendly guide, with impeccable English ( she is professor for English) .She answered all our questions, gave us some recommendations re activities and food tastings in Kotor.. I enjoyed the tour very much.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Speed Boat Tour; it was truly an amazing experience and well worth the time and money. The journey to the Blue Cave took about an hour, and we had plenty of time to swim and appreciate the beautiful blue waters. There were 9 of us on the tour, including our operator. Our operator was very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the city, providing interesting information at each stop. He also allowed ample time for us to take pictures. We felt very safe throughout the tour, especially at the cave, as our operator was clearly concerned for our safety. Even when the water was bumpy at high speeds, he skillfully maneuvered the boat, and we always felt secure.

A really interesting and fun day out. Being able to jump off the boat at the swimming spot was a highlight. Bear in mind there are lots of boats that go to the same places so it's VERY busy. The ride is extremely bumpy so I wouldn't recommend if you don't have good strength to hold on or if you have a bad back. We were thrown around quite a lot!

What a fantastic tour and fantastic guide Nicholas made this an unforgettable experience. He is very knowledgeable about the whole area and while the tour has a itinerary, Nicholas is very accommodating if you want to tweak the itinerary Highly recommend
