“We opted for this tour instead of going to the lookout on the cable car and I wish we had picked differently. The boat was small and they packed people in like sardines. There was not room to get comfortable for a very long boat ride. The first stop was at Our Lady of the Rocks, the church on the island. It was very hot, no shade, and packed with people. Then we rode for about an hour to get to the Blue Cave. We made a quick pass through the cave and then stopped for 10 minutes to swim, outside the cave. The water was beautiful and cool after…”

From Kotor, Sea Horizon’s three-hour speedboat tour combines Bay of Kotor views with Mamula Fortress, a former submarine tunnel, Perast, Our Lady of the Rocks, and a swim near the Blue Cave. You’ll ride with a small group, use provided snorkel gear when available, and hear short commentary from the skipper. The ride can be very bumpy.

“This tour is a hit or miss. It says 3hour tour but with the amount you paid for? I dont think it is worth it. Let me tell you why. You will just go to Lady of the Rocks which is just an island for 20min, and another 15min to just very quickly see the Blue Cave and have some dip in the water. Thats it nothing special! We were disappointed for mainly two things: 1. The speed boat driver/ tour guide was rude and did not care about us, as if he is just rushing to finish his job and go home. We could not even understand a word…”

“There was a slow start to the day - of the three pick ups, one collected the guests 45 minutes late so two thirds of the guests for this cruise and another tour were kept waiting in a hot, cramped street in Kotor without refreshments for the same period. Our own guide wasn’t even on the bus when it collected us. We had to stop near his house to collect him! However, once underway, our guide was energetic, engaging and knowledgeable. The cruise took in several sites of this massive set of bays, including the famous blue cave, a church on an island and a submarine tunnel. Truly, something for…”
