Montenegro is compact, which is one of the joys of it — you can be in the mountains an hour after leaving the coast. Getting between places is straightforward once you know your options.
Which is right for you?
If you are staying in one resort and want a couple of day trips, private transfers and excursions will do everything you need. If you want to wander — hidden beaches, mountain villages, that restaurant someone mentioned — hire a car.
