    Delightful adventure

    Private trip. We were picked up at our hotel dock. It was lovely relaxing and the dip in the ocean at the blue cave was memorable. We went on Oct 2 and the water was not too cold.

    Horrible Experience

    Extremely disappointing and, frankly, unsafe experience. We called weeks ahead specifically to confirm they had an infant life jacket for our child. We were told they did. When we arrived, they did not have one. Proper safety equipment for passengers, including infants, is a basic maritime safety requirement. The driver, Bosko, then gunned the boat before we were even seated and did not appear professional or in control of the vessel. With an infant onboard and no life jacket, we immediately asked to return to the dock. Rather than being understanding, Bosko became confrontational, even asking us, “Do you have a problem?” He then took us back and essentially kicked us off the boat. We were simply asking for the basic safety of our child, especially after being explicitly promised an infant life jacket. I would absolutely not recommend this company, especially to anyone traveling with children. Failing to provide promised safety equipment, operating the boat in a way that felt unsafe, and then treating customers with hostility is completely unacceptable.

    Amazing experience and exceptional customer service!

    This tour was an amazing opportunity to see the beautiful landscapes of Kotor and beyond! Our Skipper, Bosko, was an excellent navigator and made the ride very smooth, even with many boats in the area. We had very adequate time to enjoy all of our stops. It was extremely easy to find from our cruise port (just a 2-3 min walk). The boat was clean and we had a great experience, even beyond the tour. I accidently left my glasses on the boat, which was terrible (for obvious reasons) because we had to board our cruise before I could get them back. Selma providing excellent service and kept the glasses for another week until a kind soul from another cruise could pick them up and bring them back to the US. This exceeded my expectations and is a testament to the top-notch service this team provides. I highly recommend!

    Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h cost?

    +

    Prices start at $268 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 Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 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 Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 104 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 Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h?

    +

    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.

    Is Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h?

    +

    Around 36 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Speed Boat Tour to Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks - 3h start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kotor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kotor?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kotor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kotor Bay Escape: Blue Cave, Beach & Swimming Time, Exclusive Blue Cave Kotor Swim, Mamula&Lady of the Rock 3 Hour, Blue cave, Mamula island, Submarine tunnels and Our lady of the Rocks (3h). 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.
