Private 2-hour Kotor wine and food walking tour: Old Town sights, market tastings, and a generous lunch with local specialties.

“This was a fun way to get to know Kotor and the traditional foods of Montenegro. Further, having a personal guide gives you the opportunity to ask your own questions to satisfy your curiosity about the country, culture, etc. Bruna was fun and, by the end of my tour, she felt more like a new friend than a personal guide!”

To prove my point, the roads were quite bad because of the rain the previous day. Still he took us through slush to give us the surreal experience of spotting WILD HORSES !!!! The wine tasting spot at the end of the tour was spectacular as well. For people visiting Montenegro for the first time, Podgorica holds more than just pubs, and the trip will take you everywhere !!!!!”

Our driver was very good at maneuvering the tight turns and rough terrain. The hike up to the church presented outstanding views over the bay. It was very interesting to see a well preserved church that was not easily accessible. After visiting the church we had a very lovely and relaxing time for some local snacks and drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed this activity and would recommend it to others.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 19 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $90

Private speedboat cruise from Kotor to Our Lady of the Rocks and an organic Risan mussel lunch, with Wi-Fi and a drink included.

“Not the best Viator excursion. Boat captain was great, lady of the rock interesting. However the oyster experience was a bit uncomfortable. The boat captain said he’d be back for us in 50 minutes and he was told by oyster farmer that was too long. Very unwelcoming start. They fed us mussels and wine and ignored us. They had many other offerings and we would have stayed for lunch, maybe fish or shrimp that locals were eating but no menu was offered. We were simply ignored. The boat captain was kind enough to drop us in Perast and directed us to an excellent restaurant. I would suggest doing oyster farm…”
