    Not bad

    This tour is good. Staff of ship were not friendly and kind of aggressive. In Viator platform, written visiting the lady of rock island’’ Free Admission’’ but tour guide collected 5 Euros as admission fee!!!! I have screenshots of viator website to prove it. Don’t see any option to upload my screenshots.

    Great value

    This tour was a great value for the money. I got to see the whole Boka bay, lounge in the sun and swim off the boat. The host was very knowledgeable and friendly. The snack bar has so many drink options and my lunch was really very good (i had the fresh caught fish). My only complaint about the food is that they do not have snacks. No chips or Small plates. You have to order a full lunch, or they also have ice cream and desserts. The other thing to consider is that this is a large boat with many people and the guide says everything in at least 3 languages which made for a lot of talking over the loudspeaker. Overall this is great value and i had a fantastic day.

    Good Kotor tour

    Good trip. A little crowded but worth the money.

    via Tripadvisor

    Marisa_B · August 2026

    Sites with Heat and TOO many guests

    Boat can be crowded and with no asaigned seating, getting up or shifting can cause you to lose seat. Boat was aged so cushions torn, canopy on upper deck missing and with heat prevalent, finding any shade for approx 7 hrs of tour on boat makes for a rough day

    Ok trip

    A decent boat, decent crew, good food but not apt for non swimmers. We chose to stay at the boat because at the Blue Cave didn't make sense to go if you are a non swimmer. But even when staying at the boat, people were given the chance to go take a dip in the sea but the boat ppl didn't allow non swimmers to wear the floating jackets citing it's to be used for emergencies. This meant for 1 hr 15 mins we had nothing to do which was frustrating. 9 hours is a lot of investment on a summer day. Choose wisely. It's good for touristy things but with a child it became a bit irritating to hav elimited or no activities on board. Decent value for money. If you don't live in tivat or Kotor, it would just mean another 50-75 euros each way to get to the boarding point. Just sharing

    From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kotor.

    How much does From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship cost?

    +

    Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kotor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kotor is not rushed.

    Is From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 49 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kotor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    +

    How far in advance should I book From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship?

    +

    Around 17 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kotor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kotor and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Tivat/Kotor: Whole Boka Bay Guided Cruise, Comfortable Ship start and how do I get there?

    +

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kotor?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kotor?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
