Solo travel experience
I spent two weeks in Montenegro not so long ago. Beautiful country, spent time exploring Kotor and Budva and took a day trip to Cetinje - the former capital of Montenegro.
Solo travel experience
Montenegro is perfectly safe. Everyone is very nice. I was on a sail boat and got off every evening when docked. Had the most fun at this bar in Hercig Novi where everyone sits on the wall. Lots of locals. They all speak English.
Itinerary: Kotor: 3 days Žabljak: 2 days Budva: 2 days Ulcinj: 2 days Safety: It's as safe as any place you go. Just use your common sense. Recommendations: Montenegro is so small but so nice and beautiful.
Itinerary: 2 days for Lake Skadar + Godinje 2 days in Budva 2 day in Kotor Safety: 100% safe Recommendations: Montenegro is one of the most underrated countries I've been to.
Itinerary: - 2 days in Kotor - 2 days in Budva - 1 day in Podgorica - 2 days in Ulcinj Safety: I felt safe and had no issues with going out during the day or evening. Recommendations: Montenegro is small but it's so diverse and beautiful.
Solo travel experience
I have visited Montenegro (Budva and Kotor) last year. I did most of the time in both cities take out food or delivery and it wasn't so pricey. To be honest Budva is just a place for a beach time, also visiting few quite nice spots and attractions. I expected so much more but there are just so much building and people. For me Kotor was everything. All the city, the atmosphere, the stunning views, the boat trip I did to the Lady of the Rocks. I fell in love and when someone ask me for advise which city to choose I always answer depending on what you search - if you want to lay on the beach all day-go in Budva. If you want to lose your breath from stunning views - go in Kotor. I also stayed in a place in Kotor with pool and in front of the sea, so yes I got time under the sun a lot but with less people.
Solo travel experience
I absolutely loved Montenegro, such a wonderful surprise! Especially the north of the country: Ostrog monastery, Durmitor national park with its glacial lakes, the Tara bridge and gorge... and Kotor, of course, Plus, I had one of the thickest and best hot chocolates of my life in Montenegro.
