Travel Blogs from Montenegro
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 ...
Molunat
Spent the morning in Dubrovnik, and left reluctantly to camp near the Montenegro border. Couldn't find a free lay by, but did find a pretty excellent campsite in Molunat. Other than us and the omnipresent German campervan, the town seemed to be ...
Subotica - the adventure begins
We arrived in Subotica, a town in Northern Serbia near the Hungarian border, by bus in the middle of the day. It was a sweaty trek in boiling sunshine to the beautiful town centre of buildings, you guessed it, covered in scaffold. We went to the tourist ...
Albanian Town in Montenegro
... ? Stempel gab es erneut keine:-( Die Reise fuellt meinen Reisepass nicht besonders. Ulcinj ist eine ueberwiegend albanische Stadt in Montenegro (das grosse Problem hier auf dem Balkan ist ja, dass in jedem Land Minderheiten leben, die an einigen Stellen ...

The Cathedral- St. Mary was very good but I reccommend that you find out how to get there and once your there be sure to have a guide as the crowds can be so big that only people with a guide can go into the under ground part where they say St. mary ...
rain and sun but still a nice day
today for some odd reason i woke up at 6:45. The day started out overcast with scattered showers but by about 3pm the clouds had burnt away and it was a pleasant day. The town is really nice however i am here out of season thus ...
Dani the champion of the world
I arrived in Baja yesterday cold, tired, hungry and with just myself for company for the past 9 hours. All this was to change when I met Agnes and her family. I felt almost guilty because of the level of hospitality I was given, maybe this is what it ...
Parting shots
I spend a good part of the morning working out my options for getting to Nis, Serbia on Monday. I was hoping to take the bus and see the country in between, but the only bus between here and there leaves at 5.30pm, getting in at 6am the next morning; ...
Where are those bloody Black Mountains?
... hidden in his backpack, yelling "Montenegro! Doesn't that mean 'Black Mountain'? Why are the bloody mountains all GREEN?"). Kotor, Montenegro is another stunning walled sitting on a bay (or "Fjord" as they call it), along the Adriatic. Montenegro ...
National Park
We have been busy busy, sorry for not posting in a while. We spent a few days in a national park in Montenegro. It was quite an adventure to get there. We took a very small bus on a one way road which was used to go both ways, with ...
Mountains, finally!
I awoke after 3 hours of sleep and a night full of animated conversation. Lets just say I didn't feel too fresh. Once again I had to say bye to Marie, not easy as we have got quite close. We exchanged the dates I would be in obscure Serbian and Bulgarian ...
Russian Invasion
... 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 Ostblock, Russen, Ukrainer, ...

Kosovo is a country Travelpod!
So I'm Officially in a country that Travelpod doesn't seem to admit is a country (seems perhaps this is one of several to come. I crossed into kosovo earlier today the crossing was a breeze Although i made the rookie mistake of drinking 2 coffees before ...

Cruising through Montenegro
... we were driving, but must have been feeling generous.We got talking to the English guy and he was a little worried about travelling through Montenegro and Albania on his own, so we invited him to stay with us for a while. We headed to Kotor, a ...
Not much to say about Novi Sad...
The title says it all here really. Did almost nothing in Novi Sad because I could find almost nothing of interest to do. I'm sure there are some things to see and do there, but if they are around, I didn't see them. All I saw was a ...
Montenegro
17/8-18/8 Montenegro is a lovely little country and is now separated from Serbia. They are also in Euros which surprised us a little, and really it feels and looks like it is part of the EU, I would not be surprised if joins very soon. We have ...
Up the walls, Kotor
From Montenegro's South coast to the North, our bus mostly followed the sea along, basically a constant series of towns and resorts for 2 hours including Sveti Stefan, a tiny island covered by ancient terracotta roofed houses (now a hotel...). Kotor is ...

Ostrog Monastery
June 24th - Ok, so the destination isn't quite right, but the village of Bogetici doesn't exist in Travelpod world.... We left Budva at about 9am to head inland and to the Northwest to visit the tiny village of Bogetici which is nearby ...
Montenegro, the newest country in the world
... people can smoke almost anywhere. It’s crazy. Europe is much more smoker-friendly than the USA in general, but Montenegro was even more extreme than the other European countries we’d been to. Employees were smoking while working (including ...
Vienna to Novi Sad, Serbia
It was a sad day leaving my friends in Vienna. I really enjoyed my time there due in no small part to the friendship and kindness of those special people Heike, Juljah and Marcin. Thanks guys, keep the tourism job open for me. I was really getting ...
Up to Kotor
19/8-22/8 Our original plan was to stop at Budvar for two days, but like most plans this changed. We drove into Budvar and back out very quickly, it was absolutely packed full of people cars and high rise buildings. Instead we backtracked to a little ...
Tear Gas & Homophobia: The Serbia Riots
I'm writing this from a Belgrade hostel, safely locked in for the evening following a day of riots. I spent the day outside, playing cat-and-mouse with the skinhead gangs and protestors. Today has been a day to witness the heroism of those who want to ...
City Life
Oubliez Las Vegas. Oubliez New York. Oubliez Ibiza. Selon tous les palmares de Ultimate Party City que j'ai lu, c'est plutôt la capitale serbe qui se classait bonne première. Belgrade devancait en effet toutes ces villes, et, croyez le ou non, dans la ...
CONTIKI - BELGRADE
DAY 33 - SOFIA TO BELGRADE Again today was another travel day, and a very drawn out one at that. The bus hit a detour coming out of Sofia, which added 2 hours to our trip. This was then followed by a 2.5 hour wait at the boarder. It was a very long day! ...
And then the rain came.....
From Albania we struggled across the border to Montenegro and immediately the infrastructure improved. There were bus stations, complete with timetables and toilets, and flat, tarmac roads. Heaven. We decided to head to Budva, a big resort town on the ...
