Individual excursion along the Boka-Kotor Bay

What to expect

Savina Monastery
After a scenic ride along the Adriatic highway, we will cross the bay and head towards the coast of the Herzeg Novi Riviera. Here you will discover the masterpiece of Dalmatian Baroque architecture, the Savina Orthodox Monastery. Known as the 'Soul of Boka Kotorska,' you will explore the monastery's churches and, for the believers, the abbot will present a reliquary with saint's relics.

Coastal town of Perast
Upon arrival in the town, we will stroll along its waterfront street. Built during the Venetian Republic era, you will admire the churches and palaces of local aristocrats. Here you will also see the tallest bell tower in the south of the Adriatic, which you can climb by choice. I will share stories of Russian sailors connected to Perast, how the town became a maritime center, and other intriguing facts during the walk.

Gospa od Skrpjela
The only man-made island in the Adriatic is worth a visit. We will take a boat to reach it. You will learn about the motivations behind the island's construction and why it is still being filled up to this day. We will visit a church with a miraculous icon and a museum with unique exhibits. In the museum, we will examine the famous icon embroidered with gold silk threads and surprisingly — the embroiderer's hair.

Kotor — ancient city
In ancient Kotor, the architecture will reveal the city's ancient past to you. You will admire the Cathedral of St. Tryphon — the oldest active shrine in the southeastern Adriatic, even older than the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris! Next, you will see the churches of St. Nicholas (20th century) and St. Luke (11th century). Throughout, I will share stories of the city's festivals, ancient traditions, and happily answer any of your questions.
