Day Trip Montenegro I

The drive that is what I should called this post.  I hopped on a day tour of Montenegro driving down the Balkan coast to the cities of Kotor and Budva.  If you take this tour, I suggest you sit on the right side to view the stunning Adriatic Coast and coming into the Bay of Kotor.

You will have mountains on your left and glorious blue vistas combined with mouuntains (in the bay) on your right.

Our first stop was the smaller, walled city version of Dubrovnik called Kotor.  Kotor like Dubrovnik gets loads of day traffic tourist visiting and exploring its twisting, back street. Cafe abound with tourist memorabilia shops.  We had about an hour free time so I make my walk through the town visiting a local cafe and relaxing while watching the parade of people.

The last city we visited was Budva. I found Budva more accessible and less with day tourist. In fact, most of its streets were empty. I did find this amazing English pub called the Prince where I stopped to eat something and enjoy the back alley place.  There is also a wonderful fortress wall I climbed to get some great photos.

It was a full day as we got back about 7 pm. I thought to retire for a few hours before going back out.


in front of some Palace or another

I loved the stairway leading to this small townhouse on a back alley street...
