Arriving in Kotor is like stepping into a fairytale book, hidden in the heart of southern Europe. If you only have a short amount of time in Montenegro like we did, Kotor is the most stunning and best-preserved town in the country - aka the one city you simply can not miss when travelling in Montenegro.
We recently went on a little road trip through the Balkans with our family and had the most incredible time, with one of our stops being Kotor. We spent 48 hours exploring this underrated city and I am so excited to share with you everything you need to see & do during a visit here!

If you like sweeping vista views and enjoy a healthy dose of history you will find plenty of things to do in Kotor.
The ancient town of Kotor lies tucked away in a corner of a spectacularly blue Adriatic bay, squeezed between massive limestone cliffs and dark azure waters. The jagged limestone stands sentinel over Kotor, severing it from civilization just enough to ensure it remains locked in a time capsule of sorts, preserved for ages as the rest of the world whizzes by.
That is not to say that Kotor receives few visitors. The town has long been an important hub of trade and commerce, for centuries really. These days the port plays host to a new cruise ship daily, ensuring a steady flow of day trippers.
And yet, even with the steady tourism the town manages to fly under the radar, remaining relatively unknown.
