Day trip from Dubrovnik to kotor

We are hoping to take a day trip to Kotor. We are thinking of a private car guide or a small bus tour.

A day trip to the Bay of Kotor is certainly nice. A day trip to Kotor the town .... after having been in Dubrovnik can be a bit of a let down for many. Although they do have the cable car now and maybe thats just what was lacking.....

So, possibilities for a day trip are:
Budva https://youtu.be/GF7hyxB8Xq4?si=re2lmDTm5pRNpioH
Herceg Novi https://youtu.be/nNtT4Mh2ZTc?si=E8XAPiylEc7xlH0m
Kotor https://youtu.be/G7QgBl7XNKU?si=pK1etsEr8UcAlofr
AND Cable Car https://youtu.be/P6vN2dOUa3M?si=9TOBeD5R4Rzp1jg2
AND Mountain Coaster https://youtu.be/xiL15FSCIZ0?si=bDDkdsQP_irga6F2
Perast, https://youtu.be/q2nckBnc7_M?si=CohK_4nsI6l7chEB
Tivat https://youtu.be/qQ9SDwZ4scg?si=bmA1Si8PQ684cXkw

Add a night or two and then you can see some really amazing things. The list is here: https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/montenegro/podgorica-to-dubrovnik-by-car

There are plenty of guides and tours from Dubrovink to Kotor, but first I would check with Dijana Krkotic, Doclea Travel, +382 69 277 749 (whatsapp or text or phone), [email protected], www.docleatravel.com and try and put together something that fits your personal taste and time limit.

When we visited Croatia, we hired a private driver to drive us around the Bay of Kotor for a day. We stopped in Budva, Kotor, and Perast.

The company we used is Dubrovnik Driving Guide, and the owner is Julija Antunovic. Julija was not available the day we planned to go to Kotor but she recommended her colleague, Stjepan, who was wonderful. Julija reached out to me a year or so ago to thank me for recommending her company, and she told me that Stjepan no longer works for her. But I still wholeheartedly will recommend Julija and her company. She is very professional, and she always responded immediately to my emails. I first heard of her from Trip Advisor.

Julija's email address is [email protected]

Have a great trip!

You know, when you do one of these long day trips where you leave early, get back late, fall into your bed and then wake late the next morning; consider returning the next morning. The difference in time lost in Dubrovnik is a few hours and the payoff can be pretty good. This maybe: https://mx.pinterest.com/pin/875035402610964135/
