Tour Description

Duration: Approximately 4 hours

Departure point: Kotor Port Gate

Before arriving in Perast, stop at a panoramic viewpoint for photos of Perast and its two islands. From Perast, take a short boat ride (€5 per person, not included) to the artificial island of Our Lady of the Rocks. Explore the historic church and museum (entrance €5, not included) showcasing maritime history and silver votive tablets.

You will have one hour of free time in Perast to wander the stone streets, visit the local museum or St. Nikola church, or relax at a seaside café.

Next, drive 40 minutes to the Mount Lovćen cable car station located near Kotor’s Old Town. The round-trip cable car ticket (€22, not included) takes about 11 minutes each way to ascend and descend the 1,348m peak. Spend one hour at the summit enjoying views of Boka Bay, relaxing at the mountain bar, or for thrill-seekers, riding the Alpine Coaster rollercoaster (subject to weather conditions).

The driver will return you to Kotor in 20 minutes. You may be dropped off at the cruise ship terminal or the UNESCO Old Town entrance, two minutes’ walk from the port.
