What travelers are saying
Off the ship 30 minutes early and our guide Alexandar was already waiting. Surprise-"Private" tour meant just the 3 of us, which was perfect for what we needed. I had specifically booked this trip and tour to see where my great-grandmother grew up. Alex looked at pictures I had and immediately said we'd pop into the maritime museum in Kotor and the Perast museum to speak to them. He also said we'd definitely find the family's palace and he knew exactly where it is. He didn't usually take his tours that direction, but he was excited to see it too, and he was happy to have the opportunity to learn about it. The walking tour was awesome in Kotor. We enjoyed learning about all the sailing and trade history of the area. At the Kotor museum, Alex took time to explain who I was and my interest in the Čorko family, but found that we should definitely check with the Perast branch. Alex was even doing some research on the name! The exploration of Our Lady was interesting, especially the displayed needlework done in hair!? At the Perast museum, Alex spoke with an employee who was thrilled to meet me since she said so few of the old family members return. It was especially helpful to have him translate and question her for more information. He gave me time to talk with her and share pictures and information I had. Alex mentioned at the beginning of the tour that he loved private tours because they give him a chance to make a real connection. I think we really did connect and my family and I will forever be grateful for his guidance, patience, and the extra opportunities he was happy to incorporate into our tour. It was such an emotional and special tour.
Our group had a blast on that private tour! Miroslav, our guide, was awesome and super knowledgeable. We couldn't get enough of Montenegro's beauty and had a blast exploring the old town while soaking up its history. The drive to Perast was quick, and the boat ride to Our Lady of the Rocks was a highlight. Plus, having some free time to do our thing made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
