Kotor in Montenegro

Montenegro is a small country just south of Croatia.  We took a day trip into the country to see the fiord and the town of Kotor.    At the narrowest part of the fiord they would put a chain across the water that would prevent travel up the fiord and help to protect the town of Kotor.  The grey on the map in the country of Montenegro with Croatia on the left and Albania on the right.  Bosnia boarders Montenegro on the north.  Montenegro was part of Yugoslavia.

The drive around the fiord takes about 45 minutes to get to Kotor depending on the amount of traffic.  If you do not want to drive around you can take a vehicle ferry across to save you the time.  On the bus tour we drove to Kotor and then took the ferry back.

The old town of Kotor is an interesting area with a protected harbour area.  The walled city is well kept and easy to find your way around.  Their are several entrances into the old town.  The clock is an excellent landmark to find your way around the town.

We had a great tour here and spent time walking around the marina before returning to the coach for our drive back to Dubrovnik, Croatia.
