“Awesome tour, beautiful day for kayaking! Recommend 10/10 great swimming spots too! The kayaking place is a 40 minute walk from the Port of Kotor or a 6 minute taxi- be careful to not get jipped, many taxis won't go there because the fare is short and when you do get one, it should only be around 10 Euros, always check pricing before you go!”

“This was such a lovely activity, and much better than doing it in the searing sun! We were quickly taught how to paddle, then we were off on the water. We were allowed to go slowly to look at the fish and rock formations underneath our LED-lit kayaks. We went over to St Nikolai island, then to Old Town. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Our guide, Stefan, took videos and pictures of us and shared them via WhatsApp later - brilliant!”
