You can reach Kotor in several ways:

By plane: The nearest airport is Tivat Airport, just 10 kilometers from Kotor. It’s about a 15-minute drive by taxi or car. Podgorica Airport is another option, located around 90 kilometers away. Both airports have connections to major European cities.

By bus: There are regular bus services from many cities in Montenegro and neighboring countries. Buses from Podgorica, Budva, and even Dubrovnik in Croatia arrive at Kotor’s main bus station, which is close to the Old Town.

By car: Driving to Kotor is straightforward from cities like Dubrovnik or Podgorica. The roads are scenic, and you’ll find parking outside the Old Town.

By ferry: If you’re coming from across the bay or want to shorten the drive, there is a short ferry crossing available for cars and pedestrians near Kamenari.

Once in Kotor, taxis, local buses, and car rentals are available for exploring the surrounding area.
