This Kotor wine tour includes all the ingredients that make up the perfect Montenegro tour: sun, sea, magnificent views, delicious wines and traditional cuisine… živjeli!
One of the best ways to experience a new culture is through its traditions. And wine, along with olive oil, are as traditional as it gets in Montenegro.
This tour takes you off the beaten tourist track to a boutique winery in Herceg Novi, at the entrance to the Bay of Kotor.
The tour starts with a walking tour though the historic old town of Kotor that includes all the highlights of the old town.
On the way to the winery you’ll stop in Perast for a guided tour of the beautiful baroque town and a visit to Our Lady of the Rocks island church.
Then you continue along one of the most scenic roads in Montenegro around the bay to Herceg Novi. Above Savina Monastery, which dates to 1030, you’ll visit Savina Winery.
There, you can try three of their wines with traditional home-made snacks, their olive oil and their rakija (brandy). The ambiance and views in Savina are spectacular and it’s the perfect place to enjoy some traditional cuisine.
After the food and wine tasting you take the short drive to Herceg Novi, where you have a walking tour of the town.
Then you relax and enjoy the views of the bay’s hamlets as you cruise back to Kotor in a speed boat.

"AMAZING! Ana and the tour she created for us was hands down the best experience we could have had in Kotor, Montenegro for 8 people in November coming off a ship for a few hours. The winery is a must see because we are still talking about those views! Ana was on time, communicated with us through the entire process perfectly, she was ready to go and did a remarkable job showing us her beautiful country. If you are going to Montenegro no need to look any further. BOOK WITH ANA NOW..just do it." - Jessica Hall
