Late morning light slices down the narrow lanes of Kotor’s old town, catching on wet stone and turning every doorway into a vignette. You begin at the sea-scented quay where the Bay of Kotor dares you to look closer, then fold into alleys that funnel centuries of trade, faith and craft into a compact, walkable maze.
