Tips for SIM Card in Kotor
- 1Use EUR 10 as your walk-away number. Anything quoted above EUR 8 for sim card in Kotor is visitor pricing, not a seasonal or quality difference.
- 2Ask for the full price, including any extras, before the work starts. Personal services in Kotor rarely post prices, which is what creates the EUR 10-to-EUR 15 spread.
- 3Shops in residential neighbourhoods price for repeat customers. Those inside the visitor circuit price for one visit.
- 4If you are watching your spending in Kotor, rakija deserves more attention than this — it carries the widest visitor markup of anything we price in the city.
- 5Pay in EUR rather than accepting a conversion at the till; the offered rate is usually worse than your card's.
