What travelers are saying

"I did the EBC trek with Intrepid in September and October. Our group missed the first 3 days of the planned 12 day trek due to bad weather. There was a real fear we would not be able to do the trek at all. Intrepid sorted out additional accommodation and flights once we were able to fly. Our group made it to EBC by missing the 2 acclimation days on the accent and descending in 3 days instead of 4. This was only possible because of the awesome staff (guides and porters) employed by Intrepid and by Intrepid's backroom staff making alternative accommodation and flight arrangements for us."

What travelers are saying

"The trip was absolutely incredible! As an Aussie, I was excited to explore parts of my own country I hadn’t visited before, and it turned out to be such a rewarding experience. I learned so much, particularly about First Nations culture, which was a major highlight for me. Some activities that I initially didn’t expect to enjoy ended up being surprisingly memorable. For instance, I’ve always disliked art classes because of my perfectionist tendencies, but the included Aboriginal art class ended up being one of the standout moments of the trip. If you’re considering this trip, my advice is to go in with an open mind. Push yourself to try new things—you’re unlikely to get another opportunity like this—but also remember to pace yourself. It’s just as important to schedule downtime to rest and recharge so you can fully enjoy the experience. The people in my Contiki group were absolutely amazing, which added so much to the trip. I do wish there were more days spent in Byron Bay, or even an alternative trip focused more on beachy, nature-based destinations rather than city stops—but both aspects of the itinerary had their own appeal. This trip is also fantastic for giving you a sense of which places you’d like to revisit and spend more time exploring in the future. A special shoutout to our trip manager, who was phenomenal and really elevated the whole experience. Her knowledge of plants, history, and culture gave me a deeper appreciation for the places we visited, which made the journey even more meaningful. She was very organised and told us exactly what we needed to know in little amounts so that it wasn't information overload. Overall, it was an unforgettable adventure, and I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!"

Additional details

Where is Montenegro?

Montenegro is located in southeastern Europe, or commonly known as the Balkans, on the Adriatic Sea coast. Montenegro is surrounded by other Balkan countries of Croatia, Albania, and Serbia.

Is Montenegro Safe?

In one word, yes. Montenegro is very safe for families and solo travelers alike. Also, the people of Montenegro are known for their warm and friendly nature to all visitors.

Montenegro has a very rich religious history and some of its most historic sites are churches and mosques. It’s recommended to when visiting religious buildings to dress appropriately out of respect.

Also, as Montenegro has some very popular tourist sites, you should be aware of pickpocketers in the busier areas.

Montenegro Weather

Montenegro has two main landscapes, the coast and the mountains, that affects its climate. The coastal regions of the country have a typical Mediterranean climate with dry, warm summers and cool winters.

If you are traveling farther inland and visiting the mountainous regions of the country, you should expect cooler climates all year round with snow during the winter. Skiiers and snowboarders will enjoy the snowy mountain resorts of Kolasin and Zabljak.

The shoulder seasons, spring and fall, are also determined by the terrain. Shoulder seasons on the coast are very mild, while the mountains are cooler and rainier.

A Few Travel Tips for Montenegro

The Euro isn’t used in most of the countries in the Balkans with the countries retaining their own national currency. However, Montenegro does use the Euro. If you are on a tour of the Balkans and Montenegro is included, make sure to bring along some Euros for your time in the country.

With Montenegro using the Euro, the price of food and hotels are higher priced than other Balkan countries, but are still low compared to Western Europe.

Montenegro is very mountainous. Two of the countries most famous cities, Kotor and Budva, are both at the base of mountains next to the water. The Montenegro culture is intertwined in this dual landscape with their culture being derived from the sea and mountains.

For those who do get motion sickness, it is recommended to pack any medication to help if your tour will be driving through Montenegro from the surrounding countries.

While Montenegro is a Balkan country, the Montenegro culture is heavily influenced by Italy. The Venetian and Roman Empires both had a strong hold on this are of Europe, and had a hand in building some of the most famous sites in Montenegro.

Montenegro Arrival Registration

While most citizens of countries don’t need a visa to visit Montenegro up to 90 days, you do have to register with the authorities. You have 24 hours after your arrival to register with the local government or there is a possibility you may be fined or deported. Also, included in the registration is a fee for how many days you will be in Montenegro.

If you are staying in a hotel, the hotel will register for you. However, if you are arriving early before your tour, you will need to register yourself at the local government office.

Double check with your tour company before you arrive to see if you will need to register yourself or if your tour company or hotel will register for you.

Best Time to Visit Montenegro

July to August has the best weather to visit Montenegro. The temperature is above 85 degrees with plenty of sunshine. However, this is also when the cities and beaches will be the most crowded. Montenegro is a very popular cruise destination and the late-summer is one of the busiest times of the year for cruises.  

One of the best times to visit Montenegro is in May and the early part of June.  The weather will be warm, but the crowds will be less, making it the perfect time for a getaway! This is also the best time to visit Montenegro on an active tour. The cooler temperatures are ideal for hiking and bike riding through the mountains of Montenegro.

Who will like Traveling to Montenegro?

Nature enthusiasts will have a hay day in Montenegro. The entire country is a postcard waiting to happen. While some countries have metal skyscrapers, Montenegro has the Dinaric Alps stretching to touch the clouds.

But don’t forget about the water! Montenegro has 182 miles of coastline with Budva and Kotor providing some of the best coastal views in all of Montenegro.

Montenegro is also perfect for the active traveler. With its rugged terrain, Montenegro is the ideal destination for hikers and bicyclists looking to an enjoy an adventure holiday.

History lovers will also enjoy the medieval old towns of Kotor and Budva. These historic little cities are filled with small shops, cafes, and plenty of Byzantine churches to visit.
