“The guide for the bus was amazing and made the trip. She gave 110%. The local one in Kotor was really hard to understand and hear, somewhat a waste and left halfway through. Would suggest to drop off the main group in Old Town first, we were sitting on the bus waiting for individuals to get dropped off who were only 5/10 minutes from the main point.”

7.Best of Montenegro – Kotor Bay with opt island (Small Group)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 14 reviews · 11 hours · from $135Top rated

Travel from Dubrovnik into Montenegro with a small group of up to 19 people, stopping at Verige, Perast, and Kotor. Guides such as Matt, Gabriel, and Matej lead the day, while an audio guide covers six languages. Add Our Lady of the Rocks or Kotor’s city walls for extra cost.

“The minibus to Montenegro was very comfortable, and with a maximum of 19 people it felt pleasantly small compared to larger tours. There was plenty of time for sightseeing at each stop, which made the journey relaxed and enjoyable. Our guide, Matte, was fantastic— chatty, fun, and knowledgeable, yet always professional in how he looked after the group. The whole experience felt well organised and more personalised than a big bus tour. I would definitely recommend this small group tour to anyone visiting Perast and Kotor.”
