Montenegro · DAY TRIPS FROM DUBROVNIK
It is a border crossing, a coast road and roughly eleven hours door to door. These 15 differ on how much of that is spent moving, whether Budva is included and how long the boat section runs, with prices and pickup points.
Review of the Dubrovnik to Montenegro day trip, with Perast, Kotor, optional boat ride, border tips, costs, guides, and practical advice.
“it was awesome with only being 8 of us, however my negative was because Mr D (couldn't pronounce or spell name) is a smoker the van had that smell which affected my allergies”
Day trip from Dubrovnik to Kotor and Perast, with a scenic Montenegro boat cruise, local guides, UNESCO sights, and border-crossing advice.
“The tour started with poor weather but our guide Hana adapted the itinerary to allow for this. The visit to Perast and the Island of the Lady of the Rocks was pushed back to later in the day to allow the rainy/windy conditions to clear. We instead visited the beautiful historic city of Kotor first and this was a great way to start the trip! After a quick tour with a brilliant local guide (Mariana) I hiked to the Kotor Fortress. This was absolutely worth the €15 entry fee as this offers the most spectacular view of the City of Kotor and Bay of Boka Kotor! Next we arrived in…”

“This day trip requires an early start but it was definitely worth it. Darko was a great guide who got us safely and timely to our destinations. He provided good recommendations of local sites and helped take awesome photos at scenic locations. He also kept the group entertained during the drive and provided insightful information on the region’s history. Fun add-ons included the boat trip to Our Lady of the Rocks. Don’t be shy to ask Darko about the signature cake of each town you visit!”

Explore Kotor, Perast, and the Bay of Kotor from Dubrovnik on an 11-hour Montenegro day trip with guides and hotel pickup.
“This trip to Montenegro was amazing and totally worth it! Our guide Davor was an excellent Tour Guide! We love History and he gave us an excellent tour from Dubrovnik to Kotor. The transportation was pristine and safe. We stopped for refreshments at a hip restaurant/bar along the Kotor Bay right before Perast. The view of Kotor Bay was AMAZING from this spot. Perast was also a cute town along the way. The boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks and entry required cash, which sadly we did not cary. Davor was very informative and patient the whole way. He showed us how not to get lost in Kotor.…”

See Perast, Kotor, and Budva on a private Montenegro day trip from Dubrovnik, with a driver-guide, luxury vehicle, and flexible stops.
“Vladimir was a great guide with knowledge of everything and knew how to guide you to get the most of the experience. The scenery was fantastic. You should only watch out what boat is taking you to the lady of the rocks because everything is unregulated. Avoid taking the small boats even if you can bargain a cheaper price and get the regular service which is dependable. The border can also be busy and there is no way of knowing how much time it will take you to cross but our guide was really good in using the best routes possible.”

Review of the Budva to Dubrovnik day tour, with border tips, Old Town sights, free time, transport concerns, and honest value advice.
“We booked a one-day trip to Dubrovnik, which was advertised as including a Bulgarian-speaking guide. This was the main reason we chose it. However, there was no Bulgarian-speaking guide at all–the tour was conducted in English, Russian, and Serbian. This is misleading and false advertising!The bus was about 20 minutes late, with no company representative at the meeting point. During the trip, the guide behaved extremely unprofessionally–shouting in front of the entire bus, being rude, dismissive, and even discriminatory towards us and other tourists.The organization was very poor– the group eventually split up because most people refused to follow the guide and explored Dubrovnik on their ow...”

Cross from Dubrovnik into Bosnia and Montenegro in 12 hours, with Trebinje, Perast, Kotor, border tips, and optional boat access to Our Lady of the Rocks.
“Ivan was full of personality and energy that made the 12 hour day memorable. Alot was packed into a small package: Stopped in a small village for cheese, and then an impromptu wine tasting in Bosnia (not a part of the scheduled agenda). Spent a short while in Trebinje along the tidy and busy square/market. We then moved onto Montenegro for a traditional lunch (at our expense), and then Perast for an hour. Perast is small, with an hour being plenty of time. We then moved onto Kotor which was VERY touristy. Be prepared for traffic, and pedestrian congestion inside the city walls. Very similar to Dubrovnik but on a…”
