Most of Montenegrin attractions you will be able to see independently by car. To do this, it is enough to rent a car for a few days – and go! With its coastline along the Adriatic Sea with a length of 294 km, Montenegro guarantees you dizzying landscapes and fascinating routes, no matter where you go. In this review we will tell you that you can visit Montenegro by car in five days to see the most interesting places in the country.

One of the ways to get into the country is across the border with Albania, through Skoda, which is only 20 minutes drive from the border. Another 45 minutes drive along one of the scenic routes you get to the Bar, where you can relax. Bar – a great place on the southern coast of Montenegro, where you can see the old city.

Another 40 minutes to the coast along the E80 you will reach San Stefano. This is the highlight of the coastal road, which is part of the Budva Riviera. San Stefano is an upscale resort where there are a lot of celebrities, so if you do not have a lot of money, stay here just to take photos. Unless of course you can not afford to pay 2000 euros per night at the hotel.

Another 15 minutes drive you get to the “Queen of the Mediterranean Sea” – Budva. This city is the main tourist center in Montenegro. Budva is well known for its Riviera, where there are at least 18 beaches. Here is an interesting old city, nightlife and rich bazaars. In Budva, there are so many interesting things that you have to spend here a day or two.

Kotor will be the next step after Budva. It is only 30 minutes drive. Kotor is a beautiful city on the shore of the bay surrounded by mountains. The outlines of his fortress are especially prominent in the night sky. In Kotor you can stay for a few days to visit the nearest villages.

From Kotor, you can go to Niegusi, a small town known for its cheese and prosciutto. Perhaps the most pleasant part of this route is that there is the best road to Montenegro Serpentine with its 25 winding bends.

From Njegusi in 30 minutes drive there is the National Park Lovchen, where you can climb to the top of Lovcen Mountain by car to the Mausoleum. The mausoleum is like a ladder to the sky, from where you can enjoy the view of the mountains to the horizon.

After looking at the mountain peaks, stop for coffee in the old capital of Cetinje. From here 30 minutes to arrive in the small town of Chernoevich’s River. From the main road leading to it, there is a spectacular view of a meandering river. This is a great place for photography. And in the city you can go boating and eat fresh fish in restaurants.

From the River Chernoevich to Kotor – another one and a half hours, but if you visit there, you will not regret having spent the day.

After Kotor, the best stop is Perast with its Venetian architecture, which makes it the most stunning city in the bay. The next stop is Herceg Novi, 44 minutes from Perast. Herceg Novi is the last city in front of the border with Croatia. From here to the famous Dubrovnik, only one hour by car.

That’s right, in just five days by car you will have time to travel all over Montenegro and see the top top attractions.
