Carry your passport
The tour crosses an international border; keep your passport and any required visas handy to avoid delays.

If you want close-up views of the island chapel and coastal panoramas, reserve the short boat ride when you arrive in Perast.
Comfortable walking shoes

Required for border crossing between Croatia and Montenegro and for ID checks at some sites.
Reusable water bottle
Keeps you hydrated during walks and reduces plastic use.
