Guests will enjoy a pre-arranged sightseeing itinerary with a Private Car
and Guide to explore the following destination highlights.
Highlights of the Bay of Kotor
Surrounded by impressive medieval bulwarks which extend above the town to
the fortress of Sveti Ivan, Kotor was under the rule of the Republic of
Venice between 1420 and 1797 and the Venetian influence on the architecture
is strong.
Wander through the brilliantly preserved medieval Old Town, past the
Watchtower and the 17 th Century Prince’s Palace. Admire the 12
th Century Romanesque Cathedral of St Tryphon, survivor of
numerous coastal earthquakes over the centuries.
Afterward, continue with your guide by car to Perast and visit the Church
of Our Lady of the Rocks (Gospa od Skrpjela), a Baroque edifice that was
first constructed in 1452 on a man-made islet. According to legend, the
islet was created over the centuries by the seamen who, after returning
from each successful voyage, laid a rock in the bay. As time passed, the
islet gradually emerged from the sea. The church contains 68 magnificent
paintings by Tripo Kokolja, a 17 th Century artist from Perast.
His most important painting, measuring some ten yards long, is “The Death
of the Virgin”.
