About Kotor

It's a beautiful little town packed with more history than the average tourist can absorb. I don't know where the bad (mad?) walkability score comes from but you'll walk through the historical centre in 10 minutes and everything is nearby. You'd be mad not to hire rental car as Montenegro is just plain gorgeous (especially this part) and you want to be able to drive around at your own leisure. Depending on your fondness for getting trampled by (cruise-ship) crowds, I strongly advise to go during low season as you've got the place for yourself.

Kotor is a cool but I would recommend Tivat, a small town nearby, much sunnier and more affordable. I lived in Tivat`s Hostel Anton a home for artists, travelers and digital nomad
