Kotor Travel Guide

Highlights
Delight in the tranquil wonders of the Adriatic as you explore the town of Kotor, Montenegro. The ancient town of Kotor dates back millennia to 168 B.C., but even in the thousands of years it has existed, its population remains just over 10,000. 

A stroll through the town highlights the characteristic medieval architecture and Romanesque churches, the most famous of which is the Kotor Cathedral in the old town. The historic beauty of the town has earned it designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Active travelers will enjoy the chance to hike to the fortress or bike through the Montenegro countryside, while those seeking a more relaxed experience may prefer the walking tour of the city. 

From Kotor, your Adriatic adventure continues to other popular spots in the Mediterranean, like Greece, Croatia, the Dalmatian Coast, and Italy.
