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

During our speedboat ride fresh air and amazing landscapes will blow your mind on our way to Our Lady of the Rocks island, the most visited monument in Montenegro. Let's find out together why people decided to make an island on top of 21 ft² (2 m2) natural reef. Culture and history of the area are kept in this island's church and treasury, with artifacts like an embroidery in progress for 25 years made by the sailor's lady using her own natural hair. We will make a quick stop in Perast, a baroque town with 300 inhabitants and the most amazing Venetian palaces, that give special charm to this town. Over there you can refresh with a drink or try some local desserts like unique Perast cake (in bars and restaurants by the sea with an amazing view). Instead of stopping in Perast, you can have a short swim in our bay. You don't want to miss Kotor Old Town walking tour, a medieval pearl hidden between mountains!

Filip was one of the best guides we've ever had. He was engaging, knowledgeable, and fun. The scenic speedboat ride to Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks Church was our favorite part. Filip's recommendation of a restaurant for lunch in Kotor was perfect. We highly recommend this tour, and would not hesitate to book another one with him in the future. We feel that we have made a lifelong friend, and have already made plans to keep in touch. Thank you for a fantastic introduction to your beautiful country!

Filip was a very good tour guide. We are a group of 6 retired travellers from Canada and we found Filip to be both interesting and accommodating to our preferences. Our cruise ship was a bit late getting us off to meet him and he was very understanding of that. He was quite knowledgeable of his country's history and current situation and advised us what we could do at our next stop. He recommended a nice restaurant for our lunch and waited patiently as we did some shopping before going back to the ship.

Our family of 10 had a great tour of Kotor with Filip this month. We arrived in the port of Kotor via tender boat from our cruise ship and Filip was waiting for us. We jumped onto a speedboat and had an amazing tour of the water way and Our Lady of the Rocks. Filip then took us to the old town and we wandered around. Filip had so much knowledge of the local area and Kotor's history. Thank you Filip for such a special day in Kotor we all had a great day and are keen to return again one day
