Question 1

How do I get to Perast from Kotor?

Accepted Answer

Local buses run between Kotor and the town approximately every 30 to 60 minutes, with the journey taking around 20 minutes and costing under two euros. Taxis and private transfers are also available and cost between 10 and 20 euros one way.

Question 2

Can I visit Our Lady of the Rocks independently?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Small boats depart from the town waterfront throughout the day and operate on a pay-per-crossing basis, typically 2 to 5 euros return per person. No pre-booking is required, and the crossing takes two to three minutes.

Question 3

Is it worth staying overnight rather than visiting as a day trip?

Staying overnight allows you to experience the town after day-trippers leave, which transforms the atmosphere considerably. Accommodation options are limited but include a small number of guesthouses and boutique properties along the waterfront and in surrounding villages.

Question 4

What is the best time of year to visit the Bay of Kotor area?

Accepted Answer

May, June, and September are generally considered the best months, combining warm temperatures with lower visitor numbers than peak summer. October is also increasingly favoured by travellers who appreciate cooler weather and atmospheric morning mist on the bay.

Question 5

Do I need a visa to visit Montenegro?

Accepted Answer

Citizens of the EU, UK, USA, Canada, and Australia can enter Montenegro visa-free for stays of up to 90 days. Montenegro is not an EU member but uses the euro as its currency. It is advisable to check current entry requirements with your national government before travelling.
