Travel from Dubrovnik to Montenegro with an English-speaking guide such as Niko, Nikolas, or Adnan. Stop in Perast, choose a boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks, then spend three hours in Kotor. Small-group options may also include two hours in Budva.

“❤️ Milko took care of group of seven on 27 January to Montenegro. Milko made the best of the day despite a problem before trip started. Once resolved after nearly one hour, rest of the day was problem free. Still group returned to Dubrovnik before 6pm. Border passport control was smooth and rather quick. Like Dubrovnik, Kotor and Perast are quiet in winter season, without crowds. Got to fully appreciate buildings in comfort. Down side: few shops, restaurants are open, shorter operating hours for most tourist attractions or not open at all. Shopkeepers are courteous and pleasant. Suggest Company to improve communication when pick up is later than as agreed,…”

“We were 10 minutes late to our meeting place but the company accommodated us and put us for the next trip which was 15 minutes from our original time. Necause of the thunderstorm that occurred the night before our trip, the captain has to skip the blue cave portion of the excursion ,due to government regulation which was not there fault but instead brought us to the town of Perast, which was wortht a visit. We visited Our Lady of the Rock and the James Bond submarine tunnel . Downside, the visit time to Our Lady of the Rock was a bit short. The sunny weather adds up to our…”

Take a roughly three-hour speedboat trip from Kotor to the Blue Cave, Our Lady of the Rocks, Perast, former submarine tunnels, and Mamula Fortress. You’ll get striking sea views, a chance to swim, and a fast ride, with commentary varying by captain. Boben is one praised captain.

“The boat was way too overcrowded. There were not enough seats for everyone and when I said something, the driver said he is just the driver and it’s not his problem they overbooked the boat. He then told people they needed to move to other side of boat because there were too many on one side. Ridiculous. They were still selling spots when they should have been focused on the experience for those that already booked and paid. Driver was knowledgeable and did a good job explaining history and driving the boat - locations visited were awesome but it was uncomfortable being on top of other visitors and not being…”

One of the highlights was definitely swimming in the Blue Cave; it was truly magical and mesmerizing. The catamaran itself was very clean, well-maintained, and felt completely safe. The complimentary champagne, Rakija and fresh fruit were such a thoughtful and delightful touch — it made the experience even more special. A heartfelt thank you to our captain and guide!
