Only if it fits your trip

Is a Kotor food tour worth it?: Yes for first-timers to Montenegrin food who want the context: the standard format walks the green market, then seats you for smoked ham, cheese, black risotto and Vranac wine over two to three hours. The catch is that everything it shows you is walkable and priced on boards outside, so confident grazers can assemble the same bites for a fraction of the 47 to 90 EUR ticket.
Is the Lovcen and Njegos mausoleum trip worth it?: Yes on a clear day with transport sorted: the mausoleum terraces give the widest panorama over the Bay of Kotor and the fee stack is only about 11 EUR per person. The friction is access, since no bus climbs the serpentine, parking at the top is scarce, and cloud can wipe out the view you paid for.
