The areas just around Podgorica offers some of the best driving in the Balkans, so you are free to choose the car you’re going to enjoy the most. One hint is that it’s actually better to get a saloon rather than a 4WD or MPV, because the rural roads can become quite narrow and the area is mountainous. It will also help you to find parking more easily in the centre of town. In winter you’ll probably need to make sure that your hire car is equipped with snow chains as you may need them if it’s a severe season.

The local police enforce the speed limits very strictly, so take the signs very seriously. In the centre of town you can drive at a maximum of 50km/h (approx. 30mph) and on the highways around the rest of Montenegro you need to keep to 80km/h (just under 49mph). Be very careful though, because this can quickly change to as low as 20km/h (around 12mph) in some places where the roads are more narrow.

The average price of petrol in Podgorica will likely make you smile, compared to what you’re used to at home. You can fill up for around €1.23 a litre, which is only £1.06. So it won’t break the bank to drive around as much as you like, and get to see all the out of the way spots that take your interest. You’ll find three main petrol stations here: Zeta Petrol is on Mahala b.b., Petrol Zagoric is in Piperska, and the one one is on the M23.

Street parking can be a bit hard to come by in Podgorica due to its small size. Summer is the season when it’s most difficult. Rather head for the parking lot in Ulica Svetlane Kane Radevic, or Bulevar Svetog Petra Cetinjskog Parking. In summer the prices range from around €0.5 to €2 per hour (about £0.40 - £1.75), settling at around €0.50 (£0.40) in winter.
