Montenegro packs into a small country what elsewhere spreads across three: a fjord-like bay with Venetian towns, Adriatic beaches, and mountain plateaus with Europe’s deepest canyon. Distances are short, the roads dramatic, and a car is the only sensible way to see it all.
From Greece you arrive via Albania (Kakavia → Tirana → Shkodra → Božaj border crossing) — the shortest and most scenic option. Inside the country, the coastal road around the Bay of Kotor is a must; there’s also a ferry across the Kamenari–Lepetane strait that saves time. The mountain road to Durmitor has many bends and needs a rested driver. A green card is essential.
The Bay of Kotor is a UNESCO monument: Venetian walls, Romanesque churches and centuries of maritime tradition. Budva has been continuously inhabited for 2,500 years and was, by tradition, founded by Cadmus. Cetinje was the historic capital of the prince-bishops, the heart of Montenegrin independence against the Ottomans.
The old town of Kotor and the climb to the St John fortress (1,350 steps, a view over the whole bay); Perast and the islet of Our Lady of the Rocks; Sveti Stefan; Durmitor National Park with the Black Lake; the Đurđevića Tara Bridge over the Tara Canyon, Europe’s deepest; and Ostrog Monastery, carved into the cliff face.
On the coast, fish, seafood and Italian influences dominate (risotto, pasta). Inland, the food turns heartier: smoked njeguški pršut, cheeses, lamb “under the bell”, pies. Vranac wines are the local red signature.
Budva is the country’s nightlife hub, with clubs and beach bars that fill up in July and August. Kotor has a calmer, more atmospheric evening in its Venetian alleys. In the mountains, the night is for a fireplace and a sky full of stars.
Currency: Euro (without being in the EU). Time zone: one hour behind Greece. You’ll need a passport or ID and a green card. There’s a toll for the Sozina Tunnel. Best time to visit: June and September on the coast; July–August in the mountains, where the weather stays cool.

This trip is tailored to you, so you choose the dates yourself. We're happy to advise you on the best season for this destination and how weather, prices and crowds change throughout the year — just let us know roughly when you're thinking of travelling.
The essentials included are:
Transport is not included — this is a trip in your own car. The full list of what is and isn't included is in the "Included / Not included" section of the page.
Not necessarily. The "From €X" price is the lowest price currently available, based on flight and hotel availability for those specific dates. Since availability changes daily, the final price for your trip may differ. We'll send you a final, written quote before you're charged anything, once you tell us the dates you're interested in.
Flight and hotel prices change daily depending on the season, demand, day of the week and how far in advance you book. That's why the price you see is indicative — the earlier you tell us your dates, the easier it is for us to secure the best possible price.
The single-room supplement varies by hotel and destination and is included in the price/quote you receive for your specific dates. If you're travelling alone, let us know from the start so the quote includes the correct single-room price right away.
Payment is made immediately upon booking. For certain properties with their own payment policy (e.g. a deposit or a specific payment deadline), we will inform you explicitly before you proceed, so you know exactly the terms.
Yes — once your booking is completed, the price is fixed and is not affected by later changes in flight or hotel prices. Availability and price can only change before your booking is finalised.
As this is a trip in your own car, there is no departure surcharge — you start from wherever suits you.
For your trip within Greece, a valid ID card or passport is enough. If you're travelling by air, you'll need an official photo ID for airport checks. For minors travelling, please check what documentation may be required.
Changes and cancellations follow the terms of the airlines, hotels and suppliers booked on your behalf, so the cost depends on how close to departure we are and each fare's rules. Let us know as early as possible and we'll look for the least costly solution. The general terms of participation apply to every booking.
Travel insurance is not included in the price unless explicitly stated in the page's inclusions. We strongly recommend it, especially for trips outside the European Union, so that medical care, cancellation and luggage loss are covered. We can arrange it for you — just ask when booking.
Yes — this is an individual trip, not a group departure. There's no fixed itinerary or coach schedule: you travel on your own, at your own pace. We can change the overnight stays, the hotel category, add or remove destinations, and arrange transfers, car hire or private guided tours.
Send us a request through the form on this page, call us, or visit our office. We'll get back to you with availability and a written quote before anything is charged.
