A Great Tour! - Our group of 4 friends visited Kotor as part of a cruise. We loved this food tour, where our host Jelena took us to various stops throughout the town to sample a variety of foods and drinks. She is a wonderful guide, so friendly and knowledgeable about her hometown. The food, company and conversation made this a very memorable experience! Highly recommended.

Getting fed and educated - Bogdan made us feel very comfortable. He did not only give us an excellent food tour but soo much History of Montenegro and it's cultures. Bogdan is passionate about his career and well educated about his history as well as other countries. The food was great and the Black Risotto stole the show. Thank you very much.

Worth every cent ! - The 6 of us did a private 3 hour food tour with the guide Djukan. He was born and bred in Kotor. We have done many food tours around the world and this was the best ever. He spent 5 hours taking us around the old town and educating us on every single aspect of Montenegro- the history, lifestyle, culture, food etc. He was jovial, considerate, generous and funny. We sat at some of the venues and just ate and drank (whatever we wanted) and talked and laughed and learnt. Of course , we were going to explode by the end. Come with an empty stomach but don't miss this one!

Best Guide and So Much Good Food - We went off shore today for a three hours Taste of Kotor food tour recommended by Rick Steves. Our host was Bogden, and his family has lived in Kotor for over 600 years. He should work for the federal office of tourist because he was an encyclopedia of everything Montenegro. We started with a local lady who sold olives. We tasted about eight different kinds, and liked the roasted ones best. Who am I kidding, they were all good. Participation trophy for all. A local meat and cheese vendor let us taste traditional prosciutto and then a beef version of the treat. We also had soft and hard cheeses from the region. We tried the national liquor called Rakija which was supposed to boost your appetite. It worked, that was the last time we ate responsibly all day. We had another cocktail at stop number three, Amaro Montenegro. Also popular in Bologna, because the queen of Montenegro married an Italian king and brought it to that city many years ago. Stop four was where things fell off the rails. Bogden insisted it that guests must eat all the food served at a table. We tried, but it was a lot of food. We ate four dozen mussels and two baskets of bread with five dipping sauces. Also a keilbassa-like meat. The sauces included fresh churned butter, a smoked fish in olive oil, a spicy red pepper spread, a creme and herb dip and a potato and onion puree. I gave up after my second basket. Good local white wine too. Stop five was wonderful because we had octopus risotto tossed in the black ink from the same animal. This time we had red wine, Vranac, with the meal. The vineyard is run by the government and is one of the largest in the world. Good full-bodied red. Stop six, mercifully was the last for an espresso and cake (of course it was huge). We ate about half and then tapped out. We highly recommend this tour. If you get Bogden as a guide it is a bonus!
