Hello! My name is Filip. My hometown is Kotor, an absolute gem surrounded by mountains and hidden deep into the Bay of Kotor, one of the most beautiful fjords in the world, which is protected by UNESCO. I am a native of Kotor and Montenegro, and my family is local here for centuries, during all good and bad times we were here (I will tell you some local stories that I learned from my grandparents if and when we meet). I was raised learning local customs, local slang, culture, even how to make local food and drinks. Let me tell you a bit about my professional development. All my life I am so eager and enthusiastic to learn and improve in foreign languages and meet people from all over the world. After getting a Business English degree from the university, I was doing different jobs related to my profession, but honestly none of those jobs allowed me to show my full potential. Then, slowly I started working jobs related to tourism, like being museum guide (docent) at Roman Mosaics in Risan and later on the island of Our Lady of the Rocks in Perast. I liked those jobs, but I wanted to go even further. So, shortly after that I became a licensed tour guide for Montenegro, and since then, I completely fell in love with being a tour guide and meeting people from all over the world and showing them all of the beautiful places we have here. First of all, I really like my country, I admire all of the places every single day, and that's the main reason why I do every single tour with the same passion and enthusiasm as if it was the first one ever. I am into this business 24/7 and I am so eager to develop even further my guiding services. Being born and raised local in Kotor and Montenegro, I am very familiar with places and activities in Kotor and all over Montenegro . Being part of our tours you will have opportunity to see places from different and unusual angles and viewpoints, honest take on life of locals in general, and I will give you professional explanation of every spot that we visit from local born and raised individual prospective. During our tours, I really try to make the best of your stay in my area, and since I am very relaxed and friendly I even made a lot of friends doing these kind of tours. I am very punctual, flexible and adaptive, so I would like to point out that even though we offer very interesting private tours, we can always customize a tour for you, so if you have any inquiries do not hesitate to contact me. As well, after the tour, I would be glad to help you with anything you need, like restaurant recommendation, pharmacy or just help you with directions. It will be my pleasure to keep in touch with you and be your tour guide! - Official Tour Guide License for Montenegro, Ministry of Tourism, Montenegro - Specialization Degree (Spec.

Overview of your Kotor tour

Let me take you on a unique journey through the history, culture and landscapes of my country, since I was born and raised here, I know every corner of it. I will show you one of the most important places in Montenegro such as Our Lady of the Rocks' island. Let's find out together why people decided to make an island on top of 21 ft²(2 m²) natural reef. The island's church and a museum will blow your mind, with embroidery made by a local woman using her own natural hair. During our time together, we will also visit the Blue cave, which is magical, where you can swim in transparent turquoise water. We will visit submarine tunnels built into the hollow mountains that the military used even in the 19th Century. Also, we will pass by and take photos of "Montenegrin Alcatraz", Mamula Island, which used to be a prison and a military camp in the past. You won't miss the opportunity to see Kotor Old Town, an ancient city that became a UNESCO site for its historical and cultural value.

We had the best time on this tour. Filip and Captain Alex were terrific hosts. Filip shared his extensive knowledge with us as we toured the sights. We especially loved the submarine tunnels and the blue cave. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Filip was amazing! He filled us in on so much information about Kotor and showed us so many amazing things. He always asked if we had any questions and was very attentive to create a tour that was suitable for us. We highly recommend him (and Captain Alex) to anyone who wants an exciting adventure through the fjords!

Filip made our day smooth and enjoyable - he knows how to time things perfectly to avoid crowds - his deep knowledge of the terrain and culture shown through - Filip effectively engaged all members of our multigenerational group - the Blue Cave is wonderful, but many of the smaller caves and coves that Filip showed were breathtaking - don't miss the "Indiana Jones" submarine cave - it was a highlight for kids and adults alike - book with Filip with confidence - we �� recommend!

Our group of 6 agree that Filip is one of the best tour guides we've had worldwide. Filip is friendly, and has interesting information to share about Montenegro. If we could give him 6 stars, we would!

We took the blue cave boat tour and Montenegro city tour from Filip. The day was windy, with choppy water, but the boat driver did a great job keeping it fast, fun, and safe while Filip gave a talk of life in Montenegro and the surrounding area. Upon returning to port, we had a walking city tour, Filip was knowledgeable about the history of Montenegro and culture customized the tour based on what the group wanted (spending more or less time at different sites). His English was great. Beautiful area.
