Kotor: A Captivating Blend of History, Nature, and Coastal Charm
Nestled on the Adriatic coast, Kotor is a breathtakingly beautiful destination that combines stunning natural scenery, rich history, and crystal-clear waters. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the entire Kotor region is celebrated for its cultural significance and unparalleled beauty.
Once a flourishing commercial and artistic hub during the Middle Ages, Kotor’s legacy lives on through its historic palaces, elegant homes, and Romanesque churches. Among these, the awe-inspiring St. Tryphon Cathedral, originally built under Byzantine rule in the 8th century, stands as a testament to the city’s illustrious past.
The medieval old town is a highlight, with its winding streets, vibrant piazzas, and impressive city walls stretching nearly five kilometers. Adventurers can climb to the fortress of St. Ivan for panoramic views, while others can relax at waterfront cafés, explore local boutiques, or cool off in the shimmering fjord.
Surrounding Kotor is the magnificent Lovcen National Park, where a scenic drive leads to Njeguši village, home to Montenegro's royal family heritage and the iconic Mausoleum of Njegoš. For the bold, the winding mountain roads and lofty views offer an unforgettable experience.
Nearby, the glamorous Porto Montenegro Marina in Tivat blends modern luxury with historic charm. Just 20 minutes from Kotor, this stylish hotspot features world-class restaurants, chic bars, and sunny vistas, making it an ideal destination for indulgence and relaxation.
Whether you're exploring medieval treasures, savoring the coastal serenity, or marveling at the dramatic mountain backdrop, Kotor promises an unforgettable experience steeped in beauty and heritage.

"We arrived home from Fethiye on Monday, and would just like to thank you and Akin for planning an amazing trip. The gulet was fantastic and as usual, the Ece Saray Hotel was lovely. The staff there are some of the best we have come across, and the breakfasts were great. We are looking ahead to 2023 and were wondering if you could arrange a quote for a similar trip."  Sue and Mike Fedeczko - 28 September 2022
