How to get around Montenegro by car, bicycle, bus and train to visit both the coast and the hinterland of this extraordinary country, read the post.
Il Montenegro it is a state of fairly small size, this fact on the one hand allows you to visit it in a short time, on the other the means to move are few. It has two international airports one a Podgorica (the capital) and the other in Tivat.
In consideration of its conformation it can be divided into two areas, one on the coast and one in the hinterland. The coast is rich in tourism and accommodation facilities, the hinterland is more uninhabited and wild.
Getting around the coast is quite easy, however, as far as the hinterland is concerned, a little more attention is needed.
THEcars allows you to travel the long kilometers of uncontaminated spaces quickly and without problems, but on the coast it is more difficult to find parking.
Visit it with your own car or motorcycle it can be a good compromise, there are several ferries arriving in Montenegro from Italy. Entering from neighboring countries is quick and easy. However, you must remember to bring the vehicle registration document and check that your insurance has coverage for Montenegro.
Renting a car is simple because there are no particular restrictions. If you go into the hinterland of the country remember that for long stretches there are no villages or anything else.
However, in almost all countries, both small and large, there is a gas station. It happens that there are several kilometers between one village and another, so you need to be careful to look for a gas station when you are in reserve.
The roads are generally in excellent condition but tend to get worse in rural areas. You must also be careful of speed limits because traffic police are quite frequent.
Bus
La bus network it is extensive and reliable, the vehicles are generally of excellent quality and clean, equipped with air conditioning, and rarely travel full. In the bus stations or in the stops you can find indicative signs on the different routes and on the costs, which are quite updated, but if in doubt ask the staff for information. Buy the ticket directly from the driver it is a little cheaper, but a ticket purchased at the station guarantees you a safe seat on the bus. Placing a piece of baggage in the hold usually costs around € 1.
Train
Exists only one railway line for passengers, which departs from Bar on the coast, passes through Podgorica (the capital) and arrives in Sarajevo. In fact, the train is not exactly an ideal way to get around and visit the country.
Bicycle
In almost all of Montenegro there are no cycle paths and the attitude of the motorists is a bit undisciplined. For those wishing to tackle a trip by bike, the advice is to try to stay away from the main roads and to plan the stages well, both to find accommodation for the night and to find countries where to refresh themselves.
In conclusion, Montenegro is a very beautiful and fascinating state that can be toured by any means without too many problems, and it is a destination suitable for everyone.
