In Montenegro Kotor cruises guide you through the UNESCO-listed old town, climb St. John’s Fortress for panoramic Bay of Kotor views, and explore Kotor harbor with its fishing boats and cafes. This Mediterranean port dates back to the Republic of Venice, and its clear Venetian influences have earned it status as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Active travelers will enjoy opportunities to bike the town, while walking tours are a great alternative to learn about the history and culture that have existed here for millennia. Other ports on these Mediterranean small ship cruises may include the Croatian cities of Dubrovnik, Hvar, and Split, Italian Venice, and perhaps even the Greek Isles and Athens.

Kotor Travel Guide

Highlights
Delight in the tranquil wonders of the Adriatic as you explore the town of Kotor, Montenegro. The ancient town of Kotor dates back millennia to 168 B.C., but even in the thousands of years it has existed, its population remains just over 10,000. 

A stroll through the town highlights the characteristic medieval architecture and Romanesque churches, the most famous of which is the Kotor Cathedral in the old town. The historic beauty of the town has earned it designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Active travelers will enjoy the chance to hike to the fortress or bike through the Montenegro countryside, while those seeking a more relaxed experience may prefer the walking tour of the city. 

From Kotor, your Adriatic adventure continues to other popular spots in the Mediterranean, like Greece, Croatia, the Dalmatian Coast, and Italy.

This is a fabulous, very upscale sailing experience. Star Clipper is a tall clipper ship with masts and sails. You actually feel the waves and the movement of the ship. You get to see and experience the excitement of the raising and lowering of the sails depending on the winds. The ships hold only about 150 people so the experience is nothing like regular cruise ships that carry thousands of passengers. The small number of passengers allow you to get to know people and make friends.

I wanted to visit some of the islands in the Mediterranean that most cruise ships don’t go to. A friend recommended that I try a sailing ship so I googled and found the sea clippers and Adventure Life. My experience booking with them was excellent. They were professional and responsive. I’d use them again plus recommend them.

Our Balkans trip was the perfect blend of adventure, history, and cultural discovery. Each country offered something special—from Albania’s lively energy and stunning mountain landscapes to Montenegro’s breathtaking Bay of Kotor and Bosnia’s rich mix of cultures and moving history. The fall colors and scenic drives made every mile memorable. We loved the balance of guided tours, hikes, local food and wine experiences, and time to explore on our own. Our guides, Loren and Ernest, were outstanding—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of local insight and humor. Even after traveling more than 1,000 miles together, the journey never felt long or dull. It was a beautifully curated itinerary that captured the very best of the Balkans.
