The country with the romantic name Montenegro is located right on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. This makes it one of the most popular holiday destinations for Russian tourists. At the same time, an additional argument in favor of choosing Montenegro as a vacation destination is that it is not difficult to organize a vacation in this country on your own.
Montenegro, also known as Montenegro, is a relatively small country: its area is only about 14 thousand kilometers. At the same time, however, she is the owner of 73 kilometers of the Mediterranean coast, which makes it an attractive place not only for organized, but also for independent recreation.
Preparing for rest
To have a rest in Montenegro on your own, you need to solve several important problems. The first of them is the organization of entry into the country. Obtaining a visa if you are going to spend less than 30 days in Montenegro is not required, so transport remains the most important issue in this regard. The solution in this situation can be air travel: there are two international airports on the territory of Montenegro - in the capital of the country, Podgorica, and in another large city, Tivat.
From here you can easily get to the resort you need. The most popular holiday destinations in Montenegro are several resorts: Hercegnovskaya Riviera, which is customary to include such settlements as Herceg Novi itself, Tivat, Kotoro and others; Budva Riviera, which includes, for example, Budva, Petrovac, Bar; Ulcinj Riviera, uniting the areas of Ulcinj and Ada-Boyana. They differ in the types of beaches and hotel infrastructure, so before making a final choice, it is useful to read the reviews of travelers who have already been here. If you are going to visit Montenegro in the winter season, you can turn your attention to one of the ski resorts: there are such complexes as Zabljak and Kolasin, where you can go downhill skiing or snowboarding relatively inexpensively.
You can stay in Montenegro not only in the usual way - in a hotel, but also by renting a separate villa. This method, perhaps, can even be called preferable if you go on vacation with a large company. However, in both cases, accommodation will cost you relatively inexpensively: for example, a room in a 3 * hotel for two can cost from $ 40 per day.
Holidays in Montenegro
Once there, the first few days can be devoted to the main activity for which you came here: swimming in the clear Mediterranean Sea or skiing. And then you can already think about getting to know the sights of the country better. For example, you can walk along the streets of ancient cities - Budva, Herceg Novi or Cetinje, visit the beautiful Skadar Lake or visit the Ostrog monastery.
The most convenient way to get to your destination is probably by renting a car. However, when choosing this travel option, remember that Montenegro is almost entirely a mountainous area with all the attendant difficulties in the form of narrow roads, serpentines and other features. Therefore, if you are afraid of driving yourself, you can use the services of a taxi or a regular bus.
