“Kotor is beautiful and the boat tour was a favorite for everyone in our group of 7! Would highly recommend! If traveling to Kotor with a cruise beware that if your ship is tendering in Kotor there may be delays. The tour group did their best to work with us even though we were late, but we were not able to get a full 3 hour boat ride in. (I blame the cruise line not the tour company, but recommend not booking the early tour to avoid this issue.)”
