Overview

This small group, city walking tour of the Old Town of Kotor gives you a great introduction to this UNESCO World Heritage Site. If you are staying in Kotor for couple of hours only, it is providing a wealth of information in a short period of time. If you are staying several days in Kotor, Perast, Tivat, Herceg Novi or other places around the Boka Bay, it is a good starting point in your exploration of the region. Explore Kotor city with local guides in this small group (maximum 15 persons in a group, we often have 2 guides starting at the same time to enable everybody to participate) and learn about its history, architecture, culture and cuisine.
