You step out of a shadowed alley into the open square and the Bay of Kotor yawns ahead — a bowl of glassy water cradled by steep, rocky ribs. The tour begins in the Old Town, where stone streets still carry the footfall of medieval sailors and Venetian merchants; your guide threads stories through narrow lanes while St. Tryphon’s cathedral watches from a small plaza.
