Description
Set off from Kotor on a scenic speedboat journey to the iconic Our Lady of the Rocks. Explore the baroque town of Perast and learn its fascinating seafaring stories.
Your journey begins in Kotor, where your guide will meet you either at the city port or by the main gate of the Old Town. From there, we head out to sea aboard a comfortable speedboat, gliding across the crystal-clear waters of Boka Bay.
Our first destination is Perast – a charming coastal town known for its baroque architecture and serene atmosphere. Before stepping ashore, we’ll pause at a panoramic viewpoint just outside the town to soak in breathtaking views of the bay and its two iconic islands: Our Lady of the Rocks and Saint George.
Next, we dock at the man-made islet of Our Lady of the Rocks, home to a legendary church and museum. You’ll learn about the fascinating story of how this island was created stone by stone, and explore the beautiful interiors and artifacts preserved over centuries.
Afterward, we return to Perast for a leisurely stroll through the town’s narrow streets. You’ll have time to explore landmarks like the Maritime Museum, centuries-old churches, and elegant palaces built by local captains. There’s also time to enjoy a coffee by the sea or shop for local souvenirs.
The tour continues back toward Kotor, but the adventure isn’t over yet — we’ll drive to the nearby village of Dub, where a cable car ride awaits. In just 11 minutes, you’ll ascend from sea level to over 1300 meters, taking in panoramic views of Kotor, Tivat, and the entire bay.
At the top, you’ll have free time to enjoy refreshments, taste local specialties (at your own expense), or simply relax and admire the dramatic landscape from above.
To finish, we return to Kotor Old Town, where you can continue exploring on your own or unwind after a day full of unforgettable sights and stories.
