Which is your favourite from 2 to 10? 🥰

The coast of Montenegro is full of stray cats. Kotor, especially, has a seriously impressive population. In most places, the cats are fed in the streets and in Kotor, signs reminded people that the cats are looked after. ❤️

As a big cat lover, you can imagine this was as close to paradise as it could get 😂

❔Are you a cat person? Let's be friends!

How to climb the Ladder of Kotor, Montenegro 🇲🇪

When visiting Kotor, you can either go up the Kotor Fortress - currently a 15€ entry fee! - or you can walk up the Ladder of Kotor, which is nearby, for free.
We went for the Ladder of Kotor and didn't regret it! You get rewarded with great views, lush nature and fascinating ruins. 😍

📍The start of the path is marked on Google Maps as "start of the Ladder of Kotor".
💪 It's a medium difficulty hike, you do need comfy shoes to walk on the slippery rocks. Bring water with you also, especially in the summer.
🕒 Going all the way to the top will take you a couple hours of uphill walk. We stopped at the Cheese Shop (as marked on Google Maps) after about an hour, and already had a gorgeous view of Kotor Bay.
🏰 As you go up, you will see the walls of the Fortress as you follow a parallel path. Don't miss Sveti Juraj, the picturesque ruins of a church.
🧀 Before you head back down, sit at the Cheese Shop, where the owner serves some strong homemade rakija - a great reward after all the effort!

✔️ Save this post to plan your future trip to Kotor! 🇲🇪

Don't miss this picture-perfect spot on the coast of Montenegro 😍🇲🇪

This small peninsula, linked to the rest of the land by a pedestrian road, is one of Montenegro's most Instagrammable spots.
📍Sveti Stefan

❗Things to know:
🏖️ Sveti Stefan used to be a fisherman's village back in the day, but nowadays it is an exclusive resort which you can't access. There is a gate at the entrance of the property.
However the beach is very nice and worth spending a few hours in. The left side of the beach is pebbles, the right side is sand. I love that it's pink/reddish too!
🚗 There is a parking lot down in the town, which you have to pay for. In April it was 2€ per hour, but it might be more during high season.
🗺️ I wouldn't suggest staying in Sveti Stefan (town) as there are more convenient towns to stay in on the coast - more on that on a later feed post.
The best way to see Sveti Stefan is on a longer day trip around the coast! Stay in Sveti Stefan for a couple hours then head to nearby Petrovac na Moru.

❔ Any questions on Sveti Stefan or the coastal towns of Montenegro? Write them in the comments or DM me for extra tips! ✉️

Welcome to Montenegro 🇲🇪

Very excited to share tips about this beautiful country on my feed! 🥰
First, here's a few things you should know before visiting Montenegro:

🇲🇪 Montenegro only became a country in 2006, making it one of Europe's youngest countries.
🇲🇪 The currency used there is the Euro. Many businesses are still cash only, so make sure to have some cash with you. Withdrawing money from an ATM, even from a Euro account, comes with a small bank fee.
🇲🇪 Many people can speak a little English (enough to get by and order at restaurants), but some people won't speak any English at all. It's nice to have a note on your phone with a few words of Montenegrin!
🇲🇪 Montenegro is 80% mountains, creating stunning, dramatic landscapes throughout the country.
🇲🇪 Renting a car to explore the national parks is the best way to explore Montenegro.
🇲🇪 Food-wise, there are many grilled meat dishes, sea food, pasta dishes. Rakija is the local liquor. Montenegro has great coffee!
