At the south of the Adriatic Sea, in the heart of the Balkan Mountains, you will find Montenegro. Like Serbia, Montenegro is away from the beaten tourist track, making it a great place to discover by car. The sea, lakes, canyons, and mountains provide a beautiful backdrop for a holiday.

By hiring a car to get around, you can choose to use the speed and accessibility that this gives you to get around and see all that Montenegro has to offer, or alternatively, you can take your time and just take in the scenery as you travel from place to place.
