Montenegro In Your Pocket

Named after the forbidding view of towering black mountains that the Venetians spotted from their ships, Montenegro is a tiny country but very bumpy housing less people than in Glasgow - yet with so much good stuff on offer.

With a stunning coastline, Venetian-built medieval cities and fortresses, huge mountain ranges and Europe's most impressive bay, Montenegro has it all.

Podgorica, the capital city of this new state, has some areas looking a bit like a Chinese boom town, as the heart of this deliciously different and practically unknown Balkan city is transformed from what was a calm backwater into a gleaming new metropolis. Read everything about it in the new online Podgorica In Your Pocket and city guide.

The gem of the Montenegrin coastline is undoubtedly Kotor, with its charming Unesco-listed old town hid in a corner of a dazzlingly beautiful bay. Kotor In Your Pocket has the details.

Enjoy Montenegro.

Latest Montenegro Comments

  • Culto
    Culto is a place I would avoid by all means. Clientele is a mix of youngsters and mafiosi which create an unappealing atmosphere. It is the only place in Montenegro where I ever saw a guy taking a gun from his trousers, though the gorillas at the ga[...]

  • Carine
    It's hard to go wrong here; the seafood dishes are very good and the menu is wide enough to suit all tastes. The "distracted" waiters are actually very good. As well as the section "at the back" there is a more plush restaurant upstairs. You can [...]
  • Café Mexicana
    Seriously? Whoever wrote this review did not eat here. We are Americans living in Podgorica. The resemblence to Mexican food stops at the menu. The "enchilada" was a crepe folded and filled with canned mushrooms and cheese and nothing else (inclu[...]
  • Kosta’s
    As a guest in hotel Kostas and also almost all hotels in Podgorica I was suprised that hotel Kostas is in category of so bad hotels at least according to your web site. As a often service user of hotel accommodation and services I noticed that hotel Kostas is in top of the hotel offer in Montenegro. It wouldn't be too bad if you checked the information given on this web site.

    EDITOR: We do not consider Kosta's bad at all - we suggest you re-read the review carefully. But don't fool yourself - its not really five stars, nor the top hotel in town.[...]
