Blue Cave Kayak & Snorkel Adventure from Kotor / Tivat

The Blue Cave Kayak experience was amazing. Our guide Armando was the best guide ever! We had originally planned to do the blue Cave experience on a wednesday but when we arrived at the starting point the sea was too rough and Armando said it wasn't safe so he said we could reschedule at no extra cost but he didn't want us to miss out so took us to another location and gave us a stand up paddle board experience as well. When we finally did the blue cave experience a few days later we were not disappointed. Armando made sure we had the best experience. He made our holiday and gave us many local restaurant recommendations too. Highly recommended!!!

It was a very nice Tour with the funny Guide Amando. Excellent guide who knows the area well. Very generous with the time, we could do a lot of swimming and snorkeling. Shout out to Riley too who also brought fun to the trip.

Armando was our guide and he was excellent. He was generous with his time, fun and funny, great English, put our safety first and bought a portable speaker so the experience was evening better. He made sure we explored all the fantastic caves and best places to swim in the clear water. I would highly recommend this tour!

We had a great experience paddling this amazing coast with my family (2 parents, 2 teenagers). We had two in a kayak and two on SUPs. Although the seas were not as calm as we had hoped leading up to the Blue Cave, our guide Jeffrey was very supportive and led us to the Blue Cave early, before it got busy. The Blue Cave was cool to see, but for us, it was what we did after that which was the real highlight. We continued back around the coast, visiting various other coves, caves and tunnels less visited by the crowds. We stopped for a swim and a snorkel at some amazing and quiet spots that we had to ourselves. The place we entered and exited the water was a great spot to swim and jump off the rocks. Jeffrey provided us with ice-cold water and anything we needed, knew all the best places to go and as a very experienced SUP rider in Montenegro, was a great guide. Contact him for anything you need to know about SUP riding in Montenegro!

This excursion was awesome!! Kayaking on the Adriatic was an incredible experience. So beautiful! The blue caves and black caves should not be missed. Breathtaking lees and unforgettable, brilliant water. The black caves were so cool - like nothing we’ve experienced before. Armando was the BEST!! He took us through the caves and rocks and led us to the most amazing swimming and snorkeling areas. His experience and expertise was top notch. He made the experience informative, fun, and safe. We highly recommend this excursion!!

Armando was an amazing guide! we beat the crowds (and omg the crowds!) to the blue cave and swam around in peace until they came, then we explored other lesser known caves, including ones that non-kayaks could never reach. All the while, Armando told us about the area and only brought the good vibes. If you are looking for the best blue cave tour and aren’t afraid to do the paddling yourself, I can’t recommend this enough!

Our kayak tour to the Blue Cave was one of the highlights of our trip! Armando was an outstanding guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the paddle so much easier with his tips and encouragement. He made sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. What we appreciated most was that he never rushed us. We had plenty of time to get out and snorkel in the beautiful Blue Cave instead of just passing through. He also took us to several smaller caves and gorgeous hidden spots where we could swim and snorkel in crystal-clear water. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and Armando’s relaxed, fun attitude made the entire experience even better. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure with an amazing guide, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Armando, for such a wonderful day!

The sea was too rough for us to feel comfortable launching and paddling to the Blue Cave, so Armando took us to an alternate site, where we paddle boarded in the Bay of Kotor. The bay was perfectly calm, not even any cruise ships, and we had a lovely morning on the water!

Let me start off by saying that we booked this kayak/Blue Cave excursion and didn't get it. The night before, someone from the tour company messaged me and suggested that we not do the kayak to the cave since we weren't scheduled for first thing in the morning. he said when you go later in the day, the caves are inundated with hundreds of boats and people and it's not a good experience. He then proceeded to sell me on the cable car and bicycling down the mountain which, e said if we could ride bikes, we could easily do. He said it was very easy and would be a better experience for us. Also said he'd owe us like 10 Euro back or something in the price difference. Ha. Straight from the beginning, the tour felt disorganized and fairly unprofessional. We ended up waiting a long time at the meetup location for a couple other people who never arrived. The van - as mentioned by some others - was pretty gross. The cable car ride up was beautiful, but this is something we could have done on our own. My daughter and I wanted to ride the alpine coaster that is up on the top. Our guides, Simon and Henry, kind of tried to talk us out of it saying the lines are usually long and it's not that great, but if we wanted to do it, there would be time if the lines weren't bad. Well, there weren't any lines as all and it was actually super fun. We're really glad we did it. Also, the person who messaged me the day before advised me to get the fast track ticket for the alpine coaster, which. I did buy online beforehand. Total waste of money as there were no lines. On to the bike ride. it was really stressful. The riding is not "easy" for a beginner rider. My daughter is not a confident cyclist. She can ride a bike, but has never gone down a mountain before. We were riding on the side of the main road (not a bike path) where cars, shuttles, motorcycles, and full sized tour buses go up and down the mountain. For a large part of the ride, the road is single lane with switchbacks and not a lot of safety on the drop-off side. For a nervous rider, the choices of being really steady on the side of the narrow road while vehicles whiz by you, get hit head-on by a bus, or fall off the side of a mountain were pretty intense. Basically, my daughter was afraid the entire time down and I was really stressed out watching her as I could tell she was scared and shaky. No you don't need to be an advanced bike rider to do this activity, but you should be very comfortable on a bike riding in traffic on a steep hill. Here's what actually made me peeved though, later that night, I talked to a few different people on our cruise who, in fact, DID kayak to the Blue Cave in the afternoon and got to swim in the water with a different tour company, and they had an amazing time! UGH! So mad. We feel absolutely ripped off as the next day it rained and we didn't get a chance to see the caves then either. It's not like we're going to be in the area again, soon. The final piece that got me irked was the fact that our guides were not actually locals. They were nomadic backpackers doing temp gigs. One guy was from the UK and had been there for 2.5 weeks. I guess anyone can just lead this company's tour. Wtf. The guys were very nice, but it did feel a lot like two frat boys off the street were offered a few bucks to lead some people on an activity they could have done on their own. These excursions aren't cheap and people are often traveling from very far to have unique and memorable experiences. It would be great if Montenegro+ treated their end of the business with a little more professional care. Pros: The "guides" were nice. We got some beautiful views. Cons: Felt unprofessional and even unsafe. We feel ripped off that we were manipulated into an activity that wasn't what we wanted. Feel like we wasted our time and money.

This was really a great way to visit the blue cave and surrounding coastal area. Communication and making a reservation on Whatsapp was easy and informative. This week was extremely hot so we set out early (7am). There were two families (total 9 people) and the guides who were helpful, fun and relaxed. You need no prior experience. Rowing takes some effort, but nothing extraordinary. The blue cave is amazing. We kayaked into it and had plenty of time to snorkel (equipment provided). On the way back we visited a couple of other caves (one of them is totally dark, which was a very nice experience), and visited some spots were we could safely jump from the rocks into the water. We had a wonderful morning adventure. Thank you Armando, Augusto and Jim!
