The drive
From Podgorica Airport the road runs south across the Zeta plain, skirts the edge of Skadar Lake, and then punches through the mountains in the four-kilometre Sozina tunnel. On the far side, the Adriatic appears all at once — the descent to Budva is one of Montenegro’s classic arrival moments. Just under an hour door to door, tolls included in your fixed price.
About Budva
Budva is the centre of Montenegro’s summer life — an ancient walled Old Town on the water, sandy beaches on both sides, and more restaurants, bars and beach clubs than anywhere else on the coast. It’s also the handiest base for exploring: our Skadar Lake and Boka Bay tours both pick up in Budva.
