Kotor Sightseeing tours

Sightseeing tours of Kotor, the Old Town, the bay villages and the Lovćen serpentines come in walking, bus and minibus formats led by licensed local guides registered with the Bay of Kotor tourism authority.

Walking tours of the Old Town cover Trg od Oružja, the Cathedral of Saint Tryphon, the Karampana well and the city walls in 90 minutes to two hours. Group prices typically run €15 to €25 per person, with private tours from €70 to €120 for up to four guests. Many operators add the climb to the San Giovanni fortress as a longer half-day option for €30 to €45 including the entry fee.

Full-day tours by bus and minibus cover the Lovćen serpentines, Njeguši (for prosciutto and cheese tasting), Cetinje (the historical capital) and either Sveti Stefan or the Tara canyon as the afternoon stop. Group bus rates sit at €30 to €60 per person; private minibus charters run €250 to €450 for the day. Most full-day tours leave the Kotor cruise terminal between 08:30 and 09:30 and return by 18:00.

Guides typically work in English, Italian, Russian and German, with French available on request from the larger agencies. Booking is straightforward through the cruise terminal kiosks, agency offices on the Dobrota road, or directly with operators. Peak demand runs July to early September; outside these months walk-up booking is usually possible the same day.
