Train information

The national railway company is Željeznica Crne Gore (ŽCG): www.zcg-prevoz.me (in local language only)
Train types: Intercity (IC) trains connect Serbia (Belgrad) to Podgorica and Bar; local trains serve the other stations.
Bikes are allowed on local trains upon purchase of a special bike ticket and on some international connections, depending on the type of train.

Ferries, ships, buses… everything but train

Ferries link Kotor and Bar to Italy (Bari, Ancona), refer to www.montenegrolines.net and www.azzurraline.com
Long-distance bus services connect main cities with the coast. Ask at bus stations for timetables.

Food and drink

Eat meat - Kuvani Brav (boiled lamb is the local highlight); but for a traditional and simple meal ask for Popara (bread with milk, oil and cheese); Cevapi (grilled meat) and Burek (fried filled pastry stuffed with cheese or meat).
Drink local wine: Vranac (for a versatile red wine); and Krstac (for a lively white one).

Accommodation

Hotels can be expensive (especially in Podgorica): private rooms are usually the best choice.
Camping: the website www.tourism-montenegro.com offers a good list of camping areas
