Head south to diminutive coastal Montenegro on this day trip from Dubrovnik.

Enjoy a final scenic drive on your way back to Dubrovnik.
Pickup points
The pick-up times are different for each location. Our reservations team will contact you with the exact pick-up time. Pick-ups for all accommodation and hotels within the Old Town will be in front of the Pile Gate. This is because the Old Town is a pedestrian area.
What To Expect
Get picked up at your hotel in Dubrovnik and then hop inside the air-conditioned vehicle to make the drive south to Montenegro. Drink in the views of the Adriatic Sea and the Dubrovnik Riviera and learn about the history and culture of the area from your local guide. After crossing the border to Montenegro, twist and turn with the road, going around the large Bay of Kotor, and passing through charming villages along the way. Then stop in Perast, a lovely town at the base of St Elijah Hill. Consider taking the optional boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks island to check out the baroque-era church (at own expense). The next stop is Kotor, situated in a fjord and one of the most eye-pleasing Montenegrin towns. Then take some free time to do some wandering—consider marching up the 1,350 steep steps to the San Giovanni Castle for an incredible view and photo opportunity—or sit down for a drink or a snack (at own expense). Enjoy a final scenic drive along the coastal roads of Montenegro to end your day. You are returned to your Dubrovnik hotel.
The tour starts in Dubrovnik
Admire the views of the Bay of Kotor on your way to Perast and Kotor.
According to legend, the local seamen made an oath to the icon of Madonna and Child which was found on a rock in the sea. They laid a rock in the Bay upon return from each successful voyage, and over time the small island emerged. Today, you can find the Church of Our Lady of the Rocks on the island. The church contains over 70 works of art, among them the ten-meters long, The Death of the Virgin. The island is accesible by a short boat ride. Alternatively, feel free to explore the town of Perast during your free time here.
Enjoy free time to explore the Kotor Old Town on your own. Explore the narrow streets and attractions such as St. Tryphon Cathedral and the Square of Arms. After, relax and enjoy the sights on the return to Dubrovnik.
Visit the charming town of Budva, famous for its walled Old Town and some of the best beaches Montenegro has to offer. Take up to 2 hours to explore the town before returning to Dubrovnik. This stop is included only in the small group option: Perast, Kotor and Budva.
