Ostrog & Kotor – Montenegro’s Hidden Gems

#travel 📅 Itinerary Day 1 – Kotor: Arrived early and spent the day wandering through the cobbled lanes of Kotor Old Town, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and medieval charm. Visited the quirky Cats Museum 🐾, grabbed slices of delicious local pizza (highly recommend Pronto Pizza near the main square), and explored the bay on a short boat trip – even with cloudy skies, the ford-like scenery was unreal! Day 2 – Ostrog Monastery: A surreal experience visiting Ostrog Monastery, built directly into a sheer rock face high above the valley. The white façade against the rugged cliffs is breathtaking. It’s a peaceful spiritual site and one of the most important Orthodox monasteries in the Balkans. 🏨 Accommodation Stayed in Kotor Old Town – perfect for walking everywhere, with cafés, bakeries, and the marina right around the corner. 🍕 Food Recommendations Pronto Pizza – cheap, fresh, and huge slices 🍕

Old Town of Kotor

Your shortcut to magical Kotor! This trip is all about the medieval vibes of Kotor’s Old Town—think peaceful sunrises, cobbled streets, and views that seriously flex on your Instagram stories 🏰✨ Must-See in Kotor: Old Town of Kotor (CQFC+VF9, Kotor, Montenegro) Open all day, all year—so you can plan your adventure without the FOMO. Early riser hack: Set your alarm! The Old Town is dreamy at sunrise. Streets are empty, shops closed, and local cats run the show—pure, uncrowded fairy tale. The city walls are open, so start your climb early for panoramic views over the Bay of Kotor—no sweaty crowds blocking your shots or your path! 📸 Afterwards, reward yourself: grab a coffee at a tucked-away café in one of those quiet squares. The whole place still feels yours, and you get to savor that medieval buzz in peace. How to get around: Stick to your feet! Old Town is a car-free maze—everything’s walkable, so comfy shoes are a game changer. For nearby areas, try the local buses from the Kotor bus station or taxis if you're in a hurry. Food recs: Hit up a local bakery for fresh burek or cheese pastries. For lunch, look for family-owned konobas (taverns) dishing up grilled seafood and risottos. Quick tips: Euros are used everywhere, card accepted in most spots. Summer is hot; bring a hat, water bottle, and sunscreen. No visa needed for most travelers under 90 days—check your country’s requirements! #KotorOldTown #MedievalMagic #MontenegroMoments #TravelTips #WanderWithMe
