Review of the Dubrovnik to Montenegro day trip, with Perast, Kotor, optional boat ride, Budva, border tips, costs, and practical advice.

The last location should have been left out as there is major highway construction and accompanying congestion to reach it. The road was dirt and rutted for an extensive distance. Made the day way too long and exhausting. It was a small group of 6 but no attempt was made to introduce us or connect us, other than our own efforts. To tell the truth, I couldn’t even tell you one thing about…”

“Could not hear anything from the tour guide when we were driving. He seemed pretty knowledgeable, but if you can’t hear him in the van it’s worthless. The tour guide tried to push us to buy things, too. Also, I messaged the tour company many times and they never responded before our tour started. If you have bad knees, do not go on this trip - too many hills to climb.”

“Perfect day trip from Zagreb, easy pick up at meeting point, Meterorlogical Post for the small van tour. Very nice,clean, roomy & comfortable new van. Marko, our guide, safe driver, super knowledgeable, great sense of humor once you get to know him, patient, efficient & a little bit of a rebel!! He saved us so much time by going the opposite of all the other tour groups and we were able to enjoy the Park more without the crowds & long ques. This UNESCO site, in a Croatian National Park, is not able to be properly described with human language. The beauty is ethereal, absolutely sublime. Wear layers, be ready…”

“We had a nice day. Early in the morning the weather was very poor and we got a lot of rain going to the Blue Cave but for the rest of the day we had a lot of sun. The stop in the Carpe Diem Beach was very nice, my favourite. The stop in Vis not that good. Blue Cave is beautiful, although you have to pay 18 euros for just a couple minutes inside.”
