A note before you go. Start with St Tryphon's Cathedral, then decide whether Church of Our Lady of Remedy deserves a separate visit rather than rushing both. The suggested days are an editable grouping, not a timed tour. Visit allowances exclude transfers, meals and queues; confirm the exact entrance and current visiting arrangements for Aquarium Boka before setting off.

BEFORE YOU SET OFF
Consider driving to the beautiful Jaz or Trsteno beaches on the Budva Riviera, some 20 km from Kotor.
St Tryphon's Cathedral and Church of Our Lady of Remedy are about 0.1 km apart in a straight line. Use the route link to compare the actual streets or transport connections before putting both in the same morning; the measurement is not a walking distance or a transfer estimate.
