Description

Upon booking, please contact the guide to confirm your pick-up place and time. If you stay in a hotel or accommodation in Dubrovnik, your driver-guide will meet you in front of your location.

The Montenegro border is approximately 40 km from Dubrovnik, a 40-minute drive through the Dubrovnik Riviera and Konavle Valley before reaching the border. After crossing into Montenegro, the tour continues around the Bay of Kotor.

The first stop is Perast, known for its waterfront promenade and the two islets: Our Lady of the Rocks and Saint George Island. Our Lady of the Rocks is an artificial island formed by a pile of rocks and sunken old ships. It features a picturesque church with a rich history and local legends. The boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks is optional and available at an additional cost.

The next stop is Kotor Old Town, located on the slopes of Mount Lovćen and Vrmac Hill. Surrounded by fortified walls and situated on the Bay of Kotor, Kotor is a well-preserved medieval town listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It has four gates, labyrinthine streets, squares with outdoor cafes, shops offering local crafts and souvenirs, and key sights such as the Cathedral of Saint Tryphon (built in 1166) and ancient city walls stretching 4.5 km above the town. You will have three hours of free time to explore.

Before returning to Dubrovnik, the tour stops at a viewpoint overlooking the city and Bay of Kotor. The return trip offers a comfortable ride back with opportunities to ask your guide any questions.
