Bay of Kotor and Budva Small-Group Day Tour from Dubrovnik

This small-group tour from Dubrovnik suits early birds wanting to explore Montenegro’s Bay of Kotor, Perast, Kotor, and Budva with a max of 17 people.

Tour Overview

You will be picked up from your hotel or an agreed location in Dubrovnik. The journey crosses the Kobila border 45 kilometers south of Dubrovnik, with a passport check required. After crossing, there is a coffee and restroom break.

Following Perast, the tour proceeds to Kotor. Located at the foot of Mount St. Ivan, Kotor features a medieval old town and Venetian defensive walls, both UNESCO World Heritage sites. You have 2 hours free to visit landmarks such as St. Tryphon Cathedral and the city walls. For panoramic views, a walk along the city walls is recommended (entrance fee 15€).
