What is the best private tour from Herceg Novi?
The Perast, Kotor & Porto Montenegro Private Tour is our top pick. With a perfect 5‑star rating, it combines UNESCO sites, a boat trip to Our Lady of the Rocks, and Porto Montenegro’s luxury in one seamless, exclusive day. Booking early secures your preferred date for this popular experience.
Are private boat tours in Montenegro worth it?
Absolutely. Private Montenegro boat tours offer flexibility, personalized attention from your guide, and access to secluded spots like hidden coves. They provide a more intimate and immersive experience of the Boka Bay’s beauty compared to larger group tours.
Can I visit the Blue Cave on a private tour?
Yes, most private speedboat tours from Kotor or Herceg Novi include a swimming stop in the Blue Cave. Tours like the 7‑Hour Private Tour or the 3‑Hour Blue Cave speedboat adventure guarantee time to swim and snorkel in its famous luminous waters.
What should I book first for a trip to Montenegro?
Secure your private cruise or guided tour first, especially in peak season (June‑September). These small‑group and private experiences sell out quickly. Reserving your spot early costs nothing upfront with free cancellation and ensures you don’t miss out.
What are the must‑see places on a Boka Bay cruise?
Must‑sees include the UNESCO towns of Kotor and Perast, the artificial island of Our Lady of the Rocks, the historic Mamula Island, the stunning Blue Cave for swimming, and the luxury marinas of Porto Montenegro for a complete Montenegrin coastal experience.
