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. Visit 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 concentration camp in the past. Of course, you won't miss the opportunity to see Old Town Kotor, an ancient city that became a UNESCO site for its historical and cultural value.

We really enjoyed our tour today by Filip, a local guide born in Montenegro. He arranged an amazing boat tour for our group of 4 and we were shocked by how beautiful this nation is. He provided background and history where necessary but wasn’t overbearing. Excellent guide showed us a fantastic time in Montenegro. Highly recommend.

Filip was helpful and knowledgeable. We enjoyed everything we saw. The landscape is gorgeous and we especially enjoyed swimming in the Adriatic. The speedboat tour is an excellent way to see the beautiful scenery, and then we also learned a lot on our walking tour of the old city.

Filip is an incredible tour guide. Initially, I contacted him to see if it was possible to combine two of his tours in Montenegro. The end result was spectacular. Not only did he combine the tours, but we did most of the touring with a speedboat, which was so much fun!! We all enjoyed the day spent with Filip and at the end, he showed us a nice place to eat. Most importantly, he helped us with transportation between Dubrovnik and Montenegro. This was extremely helpful. We couldn’t have seen everything we did without Filip. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, professional, promptly answered my emails and even called me to confirm info. Filip and the speed boat driver were so much fun…always smiling and laughing!! We highly recommend Filip. Thank you, Filip!!. All the best, Judy S.

We weren’t sure what to expect during our cruise stop in the port of Kotor—Filip (and Captain Alex) did not disappoint! It was a gem of a tour with the adventure around the bay to the Lady of the Rocks, Blue Grotto, (and more)…as well as touring around Old Town, ending with a great meal recommendation. Thank you Filip for a fantastic day—we leave with a new appreciation for Montenegro! Jaci and Family

Our guide, Filip was wonderful. He was on time, very informative and professional. His general knowledge allowed us to learn a tremendous amount of the history of the country.

Filip met us right in time and walked us to our speed boat to begin our tour. He was engaging, humorous and easy to understand, as he led us around the bay. The f you like boating, you will like this tour. 75% of the time is spent on the water. Filip has lots of great stories and insights on Montenegrin history and contemporary life. I would hire him again the next time we visit the area.
