Just returned from 3 weeks in Montenegro and Serbia. We loved there are still some places in the world that are rough around the edges. We restricted our coastal time to 5 nights in Kotor - stunning despite the cruise ships and crowds - you just need to step away a little. We weren't looking for a beach so I suppose that colours your experience. Our day trip to Budva by local bus was seriously underwhelming - nice old town but otherwise not impressed. Speedboat trip to the Blue Cave and around the bay from Kotor was great.

I am disabled and this is the first time in my travels that I have felt physically unsafe. I have had to pay very close attention when out going anywhere. They drive on sidewalks, don’t observe crosswalks and generally have no regards for pedestrians. It has been stressful for me to do anything due to feeling in physical jeopardy just walking with my cane. If you are not in a WC then you are not disabled. I move slow which seems to frustrate Montenegrins but it is what it is. They also smoke everywhere and at all times even on the bus, in the stores, literally everywhere is consumed with cigarette smoke, I have never smoked in my life and smoke causes my allergies to flare so I spend time decongesting myself from going to the store for groceries.

It’s pretty safe and the locals are always ready to help you. But you need to show strangers/tourists your boundaries, the locals are nice but it’s all about the tourists. But at all it’s pretty safe here especially as a woman
Posted: May 6, 2025Budva is very safe even late at night I have lived here my whole life and never had an incident coming home alone from the club. The worst that can happen is you getting catcalled but even that us never aggressive in my experience and all my friends experiences

Hi, I’m from Budva and currently based in Podgorica. I enjoy traveling with friends, meeting new people along the way, and spending as much time as I can by the sea. I’m always up for a good conversation, exploring new places, and finding those simple moments that make a trip memorable.
