Vacation in Europe – Montenegro

admin — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 11:18:39 +0000

On the world tourist map of Montenegro has appeared not so long ago in the debut of the XXI century after the end of the last Balkan conflict. And every year the attractiveness of Montenegrin resorts in the eyes of European and in particular the post-Soviet tourism is growing rapidly. What is the secret of success of tourism industry a tiny country. which in Europe are known as Montenegro?

Montenegro is really small. If you do not take into account all very dwarf states such as Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Malta, Andorra, Monaco and Vatican City this is the smallest country in area in Europe. However, the huge advantage of Montenegro access to the Adriatic Sea. which is one of the cleanest and most beautiful in all the world. By the way. if the total length of the land borders of Montenegro is a little over 600 km the coastline of the state is stretched about 300 km with a part of the country consist of 14 islands.

Today, Montenegro has about 120 beaches the total length of which exceeds 70 kilometers. Despite the fact that the country is not included in the EU all said that Montenegro this is Europe not eastern but civilized! And the roads are smooth and the beaches are clean and high level service and cultural and historical monuments are being watched. In short even after the recent war. which took place including on the territory of the Adriatic state Montenegro had time to recover and overtake the pace of its development many other countries of the European continent.

Montenegro – a beautiful state. On its territory there are two UNESCO World Heritage Site as well as hundreds of natural and cultural monuments were not in the list. Perhaps the most interesting from a tourist point of view of the place is Boca Montenegro Bay of Kotor situated in the northern part of the state not far from the major resorts such as Budva, Tivat and Herceg Novi near the borders with Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The easiest way to the biggest resort Bay of Kotor, Kotor is the town called Tivat if you get through the tunnel under the hill opened in 2007 the direct distance is less than a mile. which is overcome by car for several minutes. At the same time a trip over the mountain serpentine road takes you about 20 minutes, but on top you can enjoy the beauty of which as well as the Gulf called the southernmost fjord in the world. But scientists do not agree with the views of those who think Bay of Kotor fjord.

The most optimal in terms of finance choice for holidays in Montenegro rent a villa or hotel via the internet, or even on arrival in the country although the advance reservation help you even more substantial savings.

Unlike Turkey or Egypt, Montenegro, dominated by private houses or small hotels on the 2-3 floors and a few dozen rooms. The cost of this pleasure is very acceptable for the average tourist from CIS countries usually from 20 to 40 euros per person per day. If you go to a big company you can rent a villa designed for the required number of people for example, 10-room house near the sea easily be found for 100-150 euros per day. Of course, a trip through a travel agency will be much more expensive.
