Independence beers in Budva
... on worse in Asia so bring it on! Most of the trip had been traversing the alps at the borders of Kosovo, Montenegro and Serbia. With mountains higher and more jagged than any I'd seen so far, we barrelled along a wonderfully serpentine canyon ...
Beautiful Budva And Historic Kotor.
"Welcome to Hotel Kangaroo!" Yes, Budva, the tourist friendly beach side town of Montenegro has a Hotel Kangaroo, owned by some Montenegren who lived for awhile in Perth, Australia. After a long day of travel winding through Albanian then Montenegren ...
Land of the Giants
June 22nd - After leaving Kruja the bus carried on to the Montenegro border which was negotiated with less hassle than the Albanian one thankfully. We were stuck behind a completely empty slow moving coach for a while until our driver eventually ...
The money of Montenegro...
... other eager, like-minded travellers (ok, that's a bit over the top - other middle-aged package tourists more like it!) on the road to Montenegro. After finding out about it the day before, i decided 'what the hell' and to go on it - after all, it only ...
Budva, Montenegro
... same developer. I think that's horrendous when you sell one of the countries biggest tourist attractions to a private party but Montenegro has done this in several instances. The biggest challenge I have with the beaches here is walking on the large ...
rain and sun but still a nice day
... being renovated in the offseason with that not much to captivate my attention for more then a day or so. I walked around the town and several nearby towns for 6 hours today, my feet are sore from all the walking i been doing lately you'd think after 2.5 ...
Russian Invasion
... noch preiswert (Montenegro an sich ist schon recht teuer verglichen mit Albanien) und fahren nach Fahrplan! Budva ist die Tourismus Hochburg von Montenegro, hier fallen die Pauschalreisenden wie eine biblische Plage ein. 90% der Pauschis kommen aus dem ...
Leaving Budva
Hallo zusammen, hatte zum Glueck auch noch einmal gutes Wetter in Budva. Hier noch ein paar Fotos. Gruss Ralf ...
Expensive sunscreen = 3rd degree burns
Wow, we have just spent five nights here in Budva, Montenegro. It is absolutely beautiful. We laid out in the sun and done pretty much nothing. Jamie decided to get a little daring one day and skimped on the sun-screen. This led to third degree burns on ...
Beautiful Montenegro and rain again
... . I remain hopeful, however. We're here until Sunday, so there is bound to be at least one day of sunshine. Right? *Update: The country of Serbia and Montenegro was formed on February 5, 2003, when the former Yugoslavia Republic disbanded and ...
Budva
There was a glimmer of sun today and decided to relax in Budva after last two days of productive sightseeing. Enjoyed sitting out on the deck staring out at the Adriatic Sea and little island "Sveti Nikola" in front of me and Old Town walls to the right. ...
The newest country on earth
... . Nobody likes hyphenation (especially the person or entity whose appellation comes after the hyphen), so as expected, Montenegro broke away from Serbia and thereby made itself the newest youngest country in the world. (As an editorial aside, we are ...
Budva, clothing optional...
... lesson from the 'tour guide' along the way. This is a particularly golden snippet: "Montenegro is bordered by 6 countries: Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Albania and Italy... over the sea". Funniest hair dying experience (okay, I'm cheating because ...
Mini vaca to Montenegro!!
... the nicest cleanest places we have stayed. It makes me sad we only stay one night. But I know one day I must return to Budva and Montenegro. We walked around the city, found a restaurant with cheap food, sandwiches for 2€ and a great one at that. We ...
Down the Montenegrin "riviera"
... . I didn't have the best of introductions to the place this morning. My bus in from Kotor didn't bother with a stop at Budva's station, so I had to jump up and ask the driver what was going on as we got towards the end of town. I noticed the same thing ...
Totally its own country!
... now its own country (that 6-0 thrashing by Argentina in the World Cup first round must've been the last straw leading to Serbia and Montenegro's breakup) and also that we met a guy there from Cal, who runs a hostel in Budva , which is in Montenegro, which ...

We've never seen anything like these storms, it was pretty intense. more to follow ...
Budva
... beautiful, with mountains and tree lines that roll right up to the water. It took our breath away. Budva was no different. The whole coast of Montenegro is basically along one road, and just runs through towns without really changing. The mountains go up ...
The Worlds Newest Country!
... with sheer drops to the side and lush, green forests. After we arrived we jumped on a bus to our next stop, the holiday resort of Budva. We decided to stay in a hostel again this time as it was the cheapest option and the campsite was closed. The day we ...
Relaxing on the coast
... arrived in the largest beach resort in Montenegro. Incidentally, it only occured to me that Montenegro actually means something when I saw the Serbo-Croatian translation and could relate it to what little Czech I know (most languages around eastern europe ...
The starting of a theory...
... are and how bad your driving is'. This theory has been brought about by a horrific bus trip we had to endure from Dubrovnik to Budva. I don't have a problem with transport being late, let's face it, I'm on a 3 month holiday, I'm hardly in a big rush to ...
I wasn't speeding... officer!
HE SAID: We ventured to drive to the beach town and old city of Budva about 30 minutes from Kotor. It was an easy drive. It would have been easier if I didnt get pulled over for speeding. I actually thought that I was going less than ...
Of princes 'n palaces
... that the weather was much chillier than on the coast. We passed a number of small villages and tiny cottages along the way, which showed a very different Montenegro to the cafes in Kotor's Stari Grad. The rough grey mountains were quite rugged, and the ...

Over the Hills and Far Away....
... in the North, Pete decided to drive back through the city to see Lake Skadar. Lake Skadar is split in half with Montenegro on the North/West and Albania on the South East. In fact, some of the photos show Albanian Mountains. Well, Pete kinda got on a ...
Black Mountain
... heading inland. The people here have been very welcoming and helpful, I wish I had more time to stay and explore. I went to a boxing match last night (Serbia vs. Montenegro) We started out watching 12 year olds go at it, but by the end there were some ...
Beautiful scenery
... up three Italian guys who were going us for the day. About 45 minutes out of Dubrovnik we get to the border of Croatia and Montenegro. We stopped at the Croatian border and had our passports checked. No worries, we keep driving and a few ...
Montenegro
... . Vladimir, our guide, surmised that the spray was water and that it was simply an excuse to collect a fee. Montenegro is a beautiful place, and its inhabitants enjoy a leisurely pace of life. When asked what people do in Montenegro, Vladimir replied, ...
