Kotor Travel Guide: What to See, Do & Know in a Day

#postandearn #kotor

🛥️ 3-Hour Boat Tour
We hadn’t planned on taking a boat tour, but after hearing the stops, we gave it a go — and it was worth it! It cost €35 for 3 hours and included:

Our Lady of the Rocks (church on an islet)

Submarine Bunker (former Yugoslav navy shelter)

Mamula Island (being converted into a hotel & casino)

Blue Cave (you can enter and swim inside!)

Perast (a charming historic town — this stop isn’t always included, but we asked and got it added)

🏰 San Giovanni Fortress
Incredible panoramic views of Kotor! We used an alternative route via a hiking trail and reached the fortress through stairs.

⛪ Kotor Cathedral of Saint Tryphon
Built in 1166, this Romanesque-style Catholic cathedral is one of the town’s historical gems. You can also walk along the fortress walls, visit the clock tower, and take great photos on its scenic bridges.

🍕 Where to Eat in Kotor

Pizza is the go-to food for locals and travelers alike.

BBQ Tanjga (near the bus station): generous portions and budget-friendly prices.

Hard Rock Cafe merchandise stores are great for souvenirs or clothing.

🏠 Where to Stay

Viktor Rooms: A recommended, convenient stay in Kotor.

ℹ️ City Tax Info
There’s a €1 city tax that must be paid within 24 hours of arrival. If unpaid, it might cause issues when leaving the country. I paid it and had no problems.
