In-Depth Information
Tourist Information
Official tourist offices (usually labelled
turistička organizacija
) are hit and miss. Some have wonderfully helpful
English-speaking staff, regular opening hours and a good supply of free material, while others have none of the above.
Thankfully the National Tourist Office is more switched on and its website (
www.montenegro.travel
) is a great re-
source for travellers. It doesn't have a public office but you can dial 1300 at any time to receive tourist information
from multilingual staff.
Travellers With Disabilities
The mobility-impaired will find the cobbled lanes and numerous stairways extremely challenging. There are very few
specific facilities for either travellers or residents with disabilities. Some of the top-end hotels have wheelchair-access-
ible rooms.
Visas
Visas are not required for citizens of most European countries, Turkey, Israel, Singapore, South Korea, Israel, Aus-
tralia, New Zealand, Canada and the USA. In most cases this allows a stay of up to 90 days. If your country is not
covered by a visa waiver, you will need a valid passport, verified letter of invitation, return ticket, proof of sufficient
funds and proof of medical cover in order to obtain a visa.
Women Travellers
Other than a cursory interest shown by men towards solo women travellers, travelling is hassle-free and easy. In
Muslim areas some women wear a headscarf but most adopt European fashions.
