Whilst in Croatia this September we decided to visit Montenegro for a few days. The weather was so hot we decided to go inland to the mountains.
We:-
- were charged 30Euro at the border 'green tax' (cars are 10Euro)
- bought a map from official tourist information lady at border for 7Euro which was pretty poor
- found it difficult to find a campsite inland
- found the people very friendly and helpful
- thought mountain scenery stunning
- found roadsigns not very helpful (infrequent and included Russian version of place names)
- were 'stalked' by a police patrol car for 5 miles (we were not stopped)
so we crossed border after 5 hours into Bosnia .........even our cassette toilet innards were checked on exit and again 5 minutes later when we entered Bosnia!
Our conclusions - stunning scenery inland but they are not ready for motorhomers and 37 Euro for entry and a poor map left a bitter taste of being ripped off
