Springboard to a Perfect Day in Kotor - The Private Kotor Walking Tour - Rick Steves was the perfect introduction to Kotor. Our local guide, Ivan, possessed all of the attributes deserving of a five-star rating: punctuality, knowledgeable, flexibility, and friendliness. Everything promised in the tour description was delivered in a timely manner and at a leisurely pace. The tour focused on Old Town Kotor and was the perfect springboard for our port of call in Montenegro.

A great tour of the Old Town, with a wonderful guide - We had a wonderful guide, who gave us exactly the right amount of information on what the Old Town of Kotor had to show, as well as some general information on Montenegro. The duration is just right, allowing you to get a feeling about the area, and then allowing you to further explore whatever you felt like getting more details on. I would definitely recommend this Tour !

Great private tour of Kotor with Nikola! - Nikola was an outstanding guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and easy to talk to. We learned so much about Kotor’s history, culture, and both past and present politics, giving us a deeper perspective on the city and Montenegro. Arriving by tender was dramatic, and the first view of this cool medieval city was unforgettable. Even a sudden downpour couldn’t spoil the experience—Kotor’s unique beauty, clean streets, and friendly people made it feel magical. Highly recommend Nikola for a personal, insightful, and memorable tour! Nikola’s passion for his hometown was clear, and his easygoing nature made the experience even more enjoyable. We left with not only a richer perspective on Kotor and Montenegro, but also some great recommendations for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend booking a tour with Nikola if you want a personal, insightful, and memorable experience!

Perfect start to our holiday - This was the perfect way to start our holiday in Kotor. Our guide was really good, gave us a great history lesson and top tips for our stay. He also talked to us about living in Kotor and Montenegro, which was very interesting . We were very lucky to pick a day when there were no cruise ships in, and we started early. Given how hot it was and how busy it became even without the ships passengers, we could have quite easily started at 8am. Bear this in mind when booking your time slot. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Highly Recommend!! - We booked this private tour with only 2 days notice as an add on to our Princess Sun shore excursion and it could not have been better!! Bogdon met us right on time at the Sea Gate holding a sign with our name. He was charming, extremely knowledgeable and very accommodating to our group of 4. We were on a tight schedule as we needed to rejoin our ship group and he squeezed so much into a short time! Highly recommend!!!
