Montenegro by Land & Boat

  • Porto Montenegro Our Lady of the Rocks
From 90
Sail to the poetic Our Lady of the Rocks islet by boat, visit its incredible church, then head to Perast for a guided tour on foot.
Take a ride over to Montenegro's port where your boat awaits. Here you'll see Boka Bay's rugged shoreline on a scenic ride to Our Lady of the Rocks islet. Built around a rock where an image of the Madonna was found in 1452, the islet has a Baroque-style church that includes paintings by Kotor's famed artist Tripo Kokolja. Afterward, you'll sail to the seaside town of Perast for a guided tour, before enjoying free time to uncover this medieval city on your own.

Shore Things are fully refundable to the original form of payment. However, please note that Shore Things are only fully refundable if they are canceled within 48 hours prior to the booked Shore Thing taking place, unless stated otherwise in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section. If you fail to either (a) cancel within 48 hours of the booked Shore Thing (or alternative time period as may be stated in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section), or (b) show up for a booked Shore Thing, you will be charged for 100% of the Shore Thing price. 

If you make a cancellation prior to the first day of your voyage and within 48 hours (unless otherwise stated in the tour details) of your Shore Thing, you will be refunded to the original form of payment after midnight Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the day of cancellation.

If you make another purchase prior to midnight EST, after canceling a booking eligible for a refund, the credit from the canceled booking will be applied to your new booking. Therefore, you’ll only be charged for the price difference between the canceled and new experience. If you have remaining temporary credit left on your account after you’ve made another experience purchase, the remaining credit will be refunded to your original form of payment after midnight EST.

If you cancel a Shore Thing during your voyage and are eligible for a refund, a credit will be applied to your folio and not to your original form of payment.


Shore Things departure times and/or meeting locations are subject to change. We will make every effort to notify Sailors in advance via the Sailor App of any tour departure and/or meeting changes.
