Enjoyable and informative - Yelena was excellent. I've been on a lot of walking tours over the years, but rarely met someone so passionate, yet clear and concise as our guide. She plotted the history of Kotor excellently and made it a very enjoyable but informative hour.

A wonderful tour of Old Town - Jelena is a wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide. She is wonderful because she is fun and passionate about her city. She first provided context and then walked with us casually through Old Town. She shared details about its history and architecture, particularly as it's been shaped by both earthquakes, invasions, and politics over time. But more than that, she offered practical insights on the shopping and dining scene in Old Town. Her spoken English is excellent and would put many English language speakers to shame; we mistakenly thought she was from the US.

Very beautiful city - THE city to visit. Do not hesitate to drive to the marina, there are free parking without restriction. Do not visit with a guide. Let yourself be soaked in craft shops, stroll through the narrow streets that resemble Venice. Cons: traders attract tourists to buy counterfeit leather goods. Do not yield to purchase. You're being searched at customs, so be careful.

Poor communication - Missed meeting up with the operator. When they noticed we were missing they didn't attempt to contact us via Whatsapp like most would. Poor communication overall that resulted in us missing a tour.
