Description

Tour duration: 3 hours Transportation: Mercedes E class or a Mercedes Vito van depending on a number of pax Starting and ending point: The port of Kotor Note: At the request of the client, it is possible to hire a qualified and experienced guide, which requires a correction of the excursion price After meeting your driver at a time arranged by you, the tour will start surprisingly by going away from Kotor and Perast. Why? Because sometimes you need a distance to see things better and more clearly! The drive in the hinterland of Kotor will take you a bit uphill so that you realize where you are and what kind of stunning beauty you will experience in the Bay, actually its part under UNESCO protection – Kotor and Perast. Admire the shape of the Bay, make it eternal in photos and go back to the coast again to reach your destination. As soon as you reach Perast, the boat will wait for you to take a 5 min ride to one of the islands facing the town. The natural island of Saint George that you will be able to see is natural and equally intriguing, but unfortunately closed for visits. You will still be enchanted by its beauty since it is just next to our stop – artificial island Our Lady of the Rocks.  This island was built on the small sea reef on which a miraculous working painting of Our Lady was found in 1452 in a quite mysterious way. The Church was built at the same place in order to honor our Lady and house the painting, which is now a patroness of all sailors in the Adriatic. But what an undertaking it was to build an island in the middle of the sea large enough to serve as a base for the church and surrounding facilities! You just have to enter the church and its museum to hear more curiosities. Be sure to ask about special embroidery in which the author incorporated her own hair to make a haircut of Our Lady and surrounding angels!!! Go back to Perast, this time to focus on the town itself and feel this 18 century place your home. Imagine what it would be like to live in such a rich town in the past and be a frequent target of the pirates, always wanting your gold and treasures that came here as a result of successful maritime history and trade. Romantic Perast won’t leave you indifferent. Take home with you some great moments, lots of Mediterranean smells and sounds, or unique tastes of Mediterranean cuisine!
