Switchback up the old Austrian military road above Kotor to Njegoš's mausoleum, then a private tasting of Njeguški pršut and cheese in the mountain village that makes it.
After day-trippers clear out, walk Kotor's marble streets and hidden squares with a local guide who lives inside the walls, ending at a family-run konoba nobody photographs for Instagram.
A private skipper runs you out past the old Austro-Hungarian submarine tunnels to swim inside the Blue Cave's glowing water before the midday flotilla arrives.
