KOTOR BOKA BAY TOUR WITH MH TRAVEL AGENCY

DAILY EXCURSION IN Montenegro...DEPARTURES FROM Kotor and Budva...HIGHLIGHTS: The Old town of Perast, island Lady of the Rocks, The Old Town of Herceg Novi, Porto Montenegro in Tivat...DURATION: 10 hours...TICKET PRICE €35.00 (from Kotor), €40.00 (from Budva)

Boka Kotorska (in Italian bocche meaning “mouth”) is a region surrounding one of the grandest natural features of east Adriatic-the Gulf of Kotor, a series of four bays penetrating 25 km of inland. The names of bays are Bay of Kotor, Bay of Risan, Bay of Herceg Novi, and Bay of Tivat. If you want to know the places, history, and natural beauty of this magnificent bay, we recommend this tour organized by MH Travel. We may say that this is one of the most wanted tours, especially as the private ones. When we started to make this excursion in 2011, we had a very ambitious itinerary to visit all the attractions in the Bay of Kotor, including the peninsula Lustica and Blue Cave. But, in the meantime, the construction of tourist complexes with very frequent road traffic congestion began to start on the Lustica peninsula, so the existing itinerary became unfortunately unsustainable. Then we created the new itinerary, which enables us to stay longer in the cities of Perast, Herceg Novi, and Tivat. This tour is very relaxed with an easy driving schedule with many breaks. Morning in Perast, early afternoon in Herceg Novi, and sunset in Porto Montenegro will leave you breathless. Welcome!

WHEN AND WHERE WILL WE START?

The tour starts at 8:00 am close to the old town of Budva. The next pick-up is in the city of Kotor close to the old town. From Budva to Kotor is only a 25 km distance. In the off-season, we need 25 minutes of the ride between the cities, but in very high season we need 45 minutes which is written in our itinerary. If guests take the private tour we will pick up them from their accommodations. Also, if guests stay in some accommodation close to our route (for example guests from Dobrota), we can pick them up on the main road. Pick-up location can be flexible sometimes if suits guest better than the standard one.

WHERE WE WILL GO?

We will go to Perast, Lady of the Rock, the city of Herceg Novi, and Porto Montenegro in the city of Tivat.

PERAST

Perast 12

Perast is a beautiful small town of 220 inhabitants and belongs to the municipality of Kotor and has been a UNESCO World Heritage since 1979. In its impressive history, Perast was known as the center of the Boka Kotorska navy, which still exists in a symbolic way. Nowadays Perast is the tourist center of Boka Kotorska bay, which still preserved the dignity of a peaceful town where the spirit of the past truly felt and looks that the time stopped there.

Perast 09

Traffic in the city is closed in the summer that makes tourists can safely enjoy sightseeing. We will walk through the main street and see the St. Nicholas church with its belfry, the town square, the Maritime Museum, and the main street where traditional palaces and churches from the 16th-18th century still kept their authentic looks. Usually, we visit Lady of the Rocks first and then we walk around the city of Perast.

LADY OF THE ROCKS (GOSPA OD ŠKRPJELA)

Perast 05

Tourists are fascinated with the beauty of two small islands in front of the city. There is a church on each island. St. George's is closed to the public, while the man-made islet the Lady of The Rocks is open to visitors. We will go to the island by a short boat ride and where we will stay up to 40 minutes.

Guests will be able to visit the interior of the lovely baroque church from the 17th of the century as well as a small church's museum with artifacts from Roman imperial up to today. Artifacts show very unique silver plates given to the church by local people for centuries, as well as utensils, household items, navigation instruments, weapons, handmade embroidery, and paintings. Also, guests will have enough time to take wonderful photos on every corner of the island.

HERCEG NOVI

After visiting Perast, we are going to Herceg Novi. The ride lasts for a maximum of 60 minutes. Herceg Novi has the most number of sunniest days throughout the year in Montenegro and has a beautiful old town with a lot of stairs and no city walls. It was founded in 1382 by King Tvrtko of Bosnia who granted it wide privileges in his intention to turn it into a trading port, which would rid Bosnia of its dependence on the Dubrovnik merchants who controlled almost all of the Bosnian trade.

The town was originally known as Sveti Stjepan (St. Stevan) after the protector saint of the King’s dynasty but was referred to by locals (and still is) simply as Novi (New Town). The old town is connected with the promenade and waterfront by stairs so we will split our visit into two parts. First, we will visit the main squares and attractions in the old town and then we will slowly go down to the promenade where we will have a lunch break in the shade of magnolias and linden trees.

The atmosphere in Herceg Novi is always relaxing and extremely pleasant even in the high season. With a lot of greenery gardens and parks, with the view on the entrance of Boka Bay, and peninsula Lustica, with the line of the charming small restaurants around the old train station next to the swimming pool of water-polo club Jadran (almost 100 years old) and 6 km long lovely promenade, visit of Herceg Novi is more than pleasant experience.

TIVAT AND PORTO MONTENEGRO

After Herceg Novi, we will take a ferry, then cross the bay and continue to Tivat. This is the only town on the Montenegrin coast that doesn’t have the old town and city walls, but has the most beautiful promenade with one of the symbols of the Montenegrin maritime tradition which is a school sailboat "Jadran". The quiet and relaxing atmosphere is the key to the popularity of Tivat, which attracts investors from all over the world who have created the biggest luxury marina for mega-yachts and yachts in the Adriatic Sea, named Porto Montenegro.

Works in Porto Montenegro began in 2006 and will be fully completed in the next five years. To date, numerous tourist buildings, apartments, the luxury hotel Regent, swimming pool-club, shops, restaurants, cafe bars, and the Maritime Museum with two submarines from the Yugoslav period have been built here. The prices of food and drinks in restaurants are affordable, so we can freely say that is an ideal place to end our tour. With a light dessert or a glass of good wine, you can enjoy the sunset in the beautifully decorated Porto where there are no traffic jams or tourist crowds.

We depart from Tivat no later than 17:00, and then we slowly return guests first to Kotor and then to Budva. Our visit to Kotor Boka Bay will present a wonderful experience that guests will remember for a long time.
