Bay of Kotor Private Tour – Perast, Our Lady of the Rocks and Kotor

Bay of Kotor Private Tour – Perast, Our Lady of the Rocks and Kotor

The Bay of Kotor is best understood slowly — by moving along its shoreline, stopping in the places where maritime life left its strongest mark. This private tour follows the bay to Perast, continues by boat to Our Lady of the Rocks, and ends with a guided walk through Kotor’s UNESCO old town, with free time for lunch afterward. Pickup and start can be arranged anywhere in the Bay of Kotor, depending on where you are staying.

Perast is compact and elegant, built from stone and maritime pride. Along the waterfront you’ll pass old palaces and small details that still reflect the town’s seafaring past. From here, we take a short boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks, the small man-made island created by local sailors over centuries. Inside the church, votive silver plates and paintings offer a quiet glimpse into the devotion and life of people who depended on the sea.

From Perast we continue to Kotor, a UNESCO-protected town set beneath steep mountains and enclosed by medieval walls. We explore it on foot through narrow streets and shaded squares, passing Venetian palaces, small churches, and key landmarks — including St. Tryphon’s Cathedral. Along the way, I’ll connect the main layers that shaped Kotor, keeping the story clear and grounded in what you see around you.

After the guided introduction, you’ll have free time for lunch, coffee, shopping, or simply wandering at your own pace.
Optional add-on: If you’d like, we can include the Lovćen Cable Car after Kotor — a short ride to a panoramic viewpoint above the bay (time and weather permitting) — before returning comfortably to your drop-off point, ending our Bay of Kotor private tour.
