Highlights
  • Perast - Arriving in Perast, boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks island
  • Our Lady of the Rocks - The legend has it that the island has been made over the centuries by local seamen who kept an ancient oath after finding the icon of Madonna and the Child on the rock in the sea on July 22, 1452. Upon returning from each successful voyage, they laid a rock in the Bay. Over time, the islet gradually emerged from the sea. The custom of throwing rocks into the sea is alive even nowadays. Every year on the sunset of July 22, an event called “FaÅ¡inada”, when local residents take their boats and throw rocks, widening the surface of the island, takes place.

Besides the church from the 17th century, there is also a museum of gifts which were mainly donated by sailors and captains who had lived through the storms, battles, and long time at the open sea.

  • Perast - We visit the main square in the middle of Perast with the church of St. Nicola’s and its impressive 55 meters high belfry.

Wonderful Tour with a Great Guide. - We arrived in Kotor by cruise ship. Easy to find our guide. Unfortunately our arrival came at the same time as a huge thunderstorm. Our guide was great. Found us shelter in a cafe and ordered us coffee while we talked about the town and waited out the weather. He just rolled with it. This caused about an hour delay, but our guide didn't short change us and included everything as planned. He spoke great English and answered all our many questions about the region. He even dropped us off to our lunch reservation about a mile outside of town. Highly recommend.

Outstanding! - Milos was great. Patient, fun and interesting. Knows his country super well. The company is easy to work with and very communicative on WhatsApp throughout. Lastly , my son forgot his camera in the van and they easily brought it back to us an hour later. Recommend highly!
