Bojana gave us a great overview of Kotor and the maritime museum. She is actually the wife of a ship captain! Good tour and guide.

Bruna has lived in Kotor all her life, so could tell us not only the history but about everyday life today. She was engaging and informative, and helped us to explore the hidden nooks and crannies of her city. Communication was clear and we found her without a problem. She also gave us a hint to watch as our cruise ship left the Bay of Kotor through the Chains, as it might be a tight fit!
Dear Traveler, Thank you for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed discovering Kotor with Bruna. As a lifelong resident of the city, she loves sharing not only Kotor's fascinating history but also insights into everyday life that help visitors experience the destination from a local perspective. We're pleased that you found the meeting arrangements and communication clear, and that Bruna was able to show you some of Kotor's hidden corners and lesser-known stories. We also love that her tip about watching your cruise ship navigate through the narrow passage at the entrance to the Bay of Kotor added an extra memorable moment to your visit! Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to Montenegro again soon. Kind regards, Miro & Sons Team
Doing a tour instead of just walking around made it much more meaningful! Miroslav shared with us that he was new, and we never would have known – he was like an old pro! Well-prepared, organized, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. (In fact, a couple overheard him and asked if they could join the tour. He handled it graciously – which I appreciated since we had booked a private tour - although that said much about how impressed they were with what they heard!) And at the end, I had trouble getting Internet access, and he actually called our boat tour and walked us over there. He went above and beyond!
Dear Traveler, Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review. We are truly delighted to hear that the tour made your visit to Kotor more meaningful and memorable. Your kind words about Miroslav mean a great deal to us. We are especially happy to hear that his professionalism, knowledge, organization, and thoughtful approach made such a positive impression. He will be very encouraged to know that, even as a newer guide, he delivered such an outstanding experience. We also greatly appreciate your recognition of the extra care he showed in helping you reconnect with your boat tour afterward. Providing genuine hospitality and making our guests feel comfortable and cared for is something we value deeply. Thank you once again for choosing us for your private tour. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Montenegro again in the future! Kind regards, Miro & Sons
