Spend two nights around Kotor, move to Budva, then give Durmitor a proper mountain night. The plan uses adjustable daily allowances and leaves bus fares and attraction prices open when a current primary source does not support one stable amount.

Open a day to read the plan and its spending notes.
Settle near the old town or your bay stop, then walk through the gates, squares and harbour. Decide on the walls only after checking heat, access and closing time.
Chosen allowance includes one whole private room in Kotor, food, local travel and a small visit allowance. Divide the room only when sharing it.
Estimated day spending: €70.00
Confirm the current Blue Line stop and last return, then visit Perast without adding several rushed boat stops. Keep a boat outing optional until its route and return are clear.
Chosen allowance includes a second Kotor room night. The bus, boat and any church or museum charge must be replaced with the current amounts.
Estimated day spending: €70.00
Take the dated coach to Budva, leave bags, then use the old town and one accessible beach or coastal walk. Summer traffic can reduce the usable afternoon.
Chosen allowance includes one whole private room in Budva. The intercity ticket, station charge, beach setup and paid interiors are separate choices.
Estimated day spending: €75.00
Use the confirmed coach connection to Žabljak. After arrival, choose a short town walk or Black Lake only if daylight, weather and access leave enough time.
Chosen allowance includes one whole private room in Žabljak plus food and local travel. Replace the coach and park figures with current quotes.
Estimated day spending: €85.00
Check the forecast, trail condition and transport before choosing Black Lake, a guided outing or a higher route. Leave for Podgorica or the coast with a useful connection buffer.
Departure-day allowance excludes another hotel night. It is for food, local movement and a chosen visit; onward intercity travel is additional.
Estimated day spending: €40.00
This plan has two nights in Kotor, one in Budva and one in Žabljak. The fifth day is a departure day. Each daily figure is a chosen allowance for one traveller. Private-room figures are whole-room amounts and should be divided only when the room is actually shared.
Check Kotor to Budva through the current coach seller. For Budva to Žabljak, compare the dated coach pattern and be ready to connect through Podgorica if needed. Do not promise a Durmitor activity on the same day as a late arrival.
The UNESCO Durmitor listing covers a mountain landscape, not one fixed walk. Check current park access, weather and trail conditions before choosing Black Lake, a guided activity or a higher route.
