Kotor Travel Forum

Hi, my partner and i have 1 night in Kotor at the end of this month. We would normally book hostels although there is limited hostels and we thought we would try and stay somewhere nice (location). Would you recommend any hostels or hotels in the area that are cheap (30€ or less each per night) and accessible from the transport?

I need to know some good websites so i can book. hostelworld.com and hostelbookers.com do not have much

Hi!
Anybody know something about camping places in Kotor. I have googled the net but the only thing that I found that there is camping possibilities but I don't find any prices and facility description.
I've got some phone numbers but it seems nobody speaks english in there, or my english is so bad that they can't understand me....
If anybody know something useful about these campings, pls write ...

Hi EVERYBODY!

We are planning a trip from Timisoara (Romania) to Kotor. This trip must be very cheap :) we already ran out of money. So I'm interested how to get to Kotor in the cheapest way.
We are planning to start with the train to Beograd. From Beograd we have two possibilities.
1 - Beograd -> Bar by train and Bar -> Kotor with bus.
2 - Beograd -> Podgorica by train and Podgorica -> Kotor with bus.

I have "surfed" the net for prices for a while but I don't find any recent good data...
So the question is - anybody know which is the cheapest and easiest way..
We ( 4 person ) would like to stay about 10 days (with transportation) in kind of apartments (where we can cook some food, so kitchen is necessary ) - I found one in 40 Euros per day .. If anybody know a cheaper, better place pls respond. BTW the trip will be after the main season - end of august , or beginning of September..

Hello All,

just wondering whether you all think 50 Euros a night for two people is expensive for Kotor?

thank you in advance for your replies.

Hi again,

Thanks to everyone who helped me out with my last question.

As it has turned out I will be flying to Dubrovnik so I was wondering if anyone could help me with travel arrangements to Kotor from there, or more specifically Prcanj?

I will be in Dubrovnik at 20:05 local time on the 11th June 2008 and was wondering what public transport is available at that time to Montenegro? If there is nothing available can anyone recommend an inexpensive but clean hotel in Dubrovnik that I could stay in for the night?

Best Regards, and thanks in advance!

We will be traveling to Kotor April 2, 2008...what can we expect weather wise?

Hello, I am arriving in Budapest at 7pm on the 8th June 2008. I need to get to Prcanj, Kotor by sometime the following day. I seem to be going round in circles searching for how to do this.

I would prefer to use the train, and have a budget which I need to stick to! Please if anyone can help I would be so grateful!

Best Regards,

Robin

I am wondering if there are buses that run daily in the morning from Dubrovnik going to Kotor and leaving Kotor and going to Dubrovnik in the late afternoon - in the beginning of June. It seems like there is a bus going from Kotor in the morning and from Dubrovnik in the afternoon, but not the other way around.

Where to buy the best wines of Montenegro.Also local arts & crafts

Hello, I will be on a cruise in May and will be in Kotor for 6 hrs. Having never been to the area before, what would you recommend as the highlight of the area?

Is there any yacht (sailing) marina/harbour in Kotor? Does it have facilities like WC, Water, Electricity for the yachts?

Howdy All,
I am looking to catch a bus from Kotor to Dubrovnik.
Is it possible to catch one direct or do I need to catch one to Herceg Novi and then on to Dubrovnik.
Also, and most importantly, at what times are the buses.
Any help would be massively appreciated.

Thanks

I am planning to catch a bus from Podgorica to Kotor on Sunday 4th, November at around 6pm or 7pm as this is when my train arrives.
Firstly, I was wondering how likely this is and, secondly, how easy it is to get from the train station to the bus station in Podgorica.
How help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I would like to travel by boat from Dubrovnik to Kotor. Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, where can I book it?

Thanks

due to visit in September 2007

We will be on a cruise that stops in Kotor for a few hours in October. Is the old town a walk from the port (i.e. 1 mile or less)? I have a suspicion it is.

I will be flying from Belgrade to Tivat. How far is the Tivat airport from Kotor? What is the approximate time and price via taxi? What is the best way to get from Kotor to Mostar? Are there trains between the two cities? If not, what is the closest rail station around Kotor?

I will be visiting Kotor and Bar in May and then need to head down to Tirana. I would like to know the best possible way to get from Bar to Tirana, the prices and the time and if there is any site on the net to look at.

hi! does anyone know if it's possible to see schedules on busses from podgorica airport to kotor along with price?

2nd: is it possible to buy a train ticket(s) from kotor to thessaloniki in a travel agency or bus/train station while in kotor? I take it we 'd have to transfre in podgorica then maybe pristina. Does anyone know the price on that and if that's possible in a day? i hear that's a scenic trip but not exactly a very common route. ie; belgrade is rather out of the way but maybe that's somehow quicker.... thanks!

Can someone give me a (fairly) accurate estimate
of travel time, (via a somewhat under-powered Ford Fiesta)
from Dubrovnik to Kotor

Hi all. I'll be studying in Belgrade this summer, but before I start school I want to spend some time in Montenegro traveling. I am thinking I would like to spend a week in the Boka Kotorska region...can anyone help me with accomodation? I am traveling on a fixed stipend so I don't have too much to spend. Could anyone help me arrange a private accomodation in the region for about a week?

Thanks so much!

Hello,

I've seen some posts similar to my question, but I'm looking for more current info for July 2006.

Does anyone know how long it would take to get from Kotor to Tirana, Albania? We'd like to do it in a day. It's OK if it is a long day. Is the only route: Kotor-Ulcinj-Shkodra-Tirana?

Thanks.

Hi

I am planning on travelling from Kotor to Pristina in Kosovo by bus via Ulcinj. I understand that there is a bus service from Ulcinj to Pristina, but can anyone advise about buses and timetables for getting from Kotor down the coast to Ulcinj?

Thanks

I'm planning to visit Kotor in a few weeks via train from Belgrade to Bar then bus to Kotor, returning the same way a few days later. Can anyone tell me how often the buses run between Bar and Kotor? If I arrive in Bar at 0807 on the overnight train will I be able to get a bus on to Kotor that morning? More importantly, can I leave Kotor by early morning bus and still catch a day train from Bar back to Belgrade (either the 1000 or 1335 train)?
Also, am I likely to have trouble finding private accommodation in Kotor in mid-late July? I'm reluctant to pre-book anywhere but may be arriving on a weekend so want to be sure of somewhere to stay. Any advice would be most welcome.

Hey everyone

i am currently in germany and am starting my trip to the balkans very soon. I had a question about how to get from Kotor (montenegro) ultimately to Skopje so that I can get a train to greece. But I wanted to go through Ohrid, if that was at all possible, near Skopje. I guess the easiest way would be to Tirana but I cannot find any way to get from Kotor to Tirana without going all the way to Belgrade.

Someone please help me out, thanks so much

My wife and I are thinking of travelling to Montenegro for 2 weeks later in June 05. Please can you give us an insight into the place and the people, safety, food, service, value for money, cleanliness, etc.

We have travelled to Dubrovnik in the past and have found it to be a beautiful holiday location.

We are looking at staying on the outskirts of Kotor or near Budva. Can anyone advise us regarding the following hotels;

Hotel Splendido, near Kotor

Hotel Sveti Stefan, 8km from Budva

Many Thanks for your replies!

Hi Folks I just come back from a jaunt in former Yugoslavia, and visited Kotor which was beautiful.
However I needed to book up my next room , and it was a sunday so i went to the central post office to buy a phone card which I was told by several people stays open, only to find it closed.phone boxes only work with a card!
I went to several infact all of the available news stands , and they had no cards!
"Nevermind "I thought ,i will email.... so I asked some young people where do i go to send email? and they all showed a room full of computers, tinted windows and air conditioning, but incredibly No internet!!

So what where the computers for? ...Play station! yes!
And all of the compters had 8-15 year olds playing war games!
Eventually I found a native english speaker who confirmed there is NO INTERNET IN KOTOR SORRY.
and I have to say there were not any phone cards either because an american mans cell phone would not work and he was screaming about how he could not get a phone card!

I shall shortly spend a short holiday at Dubrovnik, Croatia. From there I would like to visit Kotor, Montenegro/Serbia. What transportation (if any) exists between them? Do I have to rent a car to do the trip? Is there a bus line? A boat line? Thx yr help.
