Why Kotor moves with MonteGO
A UNESCO town deserves better than guesswork at a taxi rank: real fares, licensed drivers, live tracking.
Minutes from the Old Town gates
Drivers wait beyond the walls, not inside them. Request a ride from the Sea Gate, the cruise terminal or Dobrota and the nearest licensed driver is matched instantly, arrival time on the map.
Cruise-day prices, all year
Ship in port or not, the estimated fare shows before you confirm. Rides around Kotor and along the bay typically cost €10 to €14, and nobody quotes you a 'today only' number.
Licensed & insured
Valid taxi licence and passenger insurance for every driver, verified before their first ride. In a town of tour hustlers, you ride with professionals.
Live tracking on the bay road
One road runs along the water, and your taxi is on it, visible on your map in real time. Share the tracking link with your group and keep the SOS button within reach.
Every cruise language covered
The app speaks 18 languages and the in-app chat translates both ways instantly. Tell your driver 'meet me at the cathedral square' and it lands in Montenegrin.
Round-the-clock support
Early ship departure, a hike up the ladder of Kotor that ran long, a bag left in the car: support answers 24/7 by chat, phone or email.
How to book a taxi in Kotor
From the city walls to anywhere on the bay in three steps.
Set your pickup
Open MonteGO at the cruise terminal, outside the Old Town gates or at your guesthouse in Muo or Dobrota. The pin finds you, or you place it yourself.
See the fare upfront
Enter your destination and the estimated price appears before you confirm. Perast boat dock, TIV airport or dinner in Prčanj, you know the number first.
Ride and pay the driver
The nearest licensed driver accepts, you track the car along the bay road, and you pay cash or card directly at the end. The receipt stays in the app.
Kotor airport transfers from Tivat (TIV)
Kotor is one of the shortest airport transfers in Europe: Tivat Airport (TIV) sits 10 kilometres away through the Vrmac tunnel, about 15 minutes door to door. Schedule your MonteGO pickup for your landing time and a licensed driver waits at arrivals, fare already fixed.
Arriving through Podgorica (TGD)? The drive to Kotor is around 87 kilometres, roughly 85 minutes over the mountains or along the coast. Book it as a transfer in MonteGO, send your price, and choose the driver who answers.
Sailing out or flying home? Book your ride up to 10 days ahead. Cruise passengers with a morning all-aboard and travellers with dawn flights from TIV both get a taxi that is simply there.

Where MonteGO takes you around Kotor
The whole inner bay, one app.
Old Town & Sea Gate
Drop-offs at the main gates of the walled city: the cathedral, the squares and the maze inside.
Cruise terminal
Pickups a minute's walk from the gangway. Skip the port crowd and ride straight to Perast or Budva.
Dobrota
The long waterfront strip of palaces and stone piers north of the walls, where much of Kotor actually stays.
Perast & Our Lady of the Rocks
The baroque town 12 km up the shore and the boats to the famous islet. Kotor's best half-day trip.
Muo & Prčanj
The quiet western shore with sunset views back at the walls: a short ride from town.
San Giovanni fortress trailhead
Rides to the start of the 1,350-step climb above the city, and a merciful pickup after it.
Kotor bus station
Five minutes from the Old Town, with connections along the whole coast.
Risan
Roman mosaics and the oldest town on the bay, 17 km along the water past Perast.
Taxi routes from and to Kotor
One page per ride, written from real trips: where the pickup is, what the road is like, where a taxi can stop, and how to book the way back.
Kotor intercity transfers
Fixed-price transfers from the bay to the rest of Montenegro. You offer, drivers answer in minutes.
Typical ride in town:€10–14
Typical range from real MonteGO rides (September 2026). The exact fare depends on distance, time of day and demand, and is shown in the app before you confirm — check it there before you book.
