Looks to be about half hour away from Becici, will probably go visit. Thanks @Bucks
But not via Krakow then�
Nope. Direct. Kotor has a 14th century Castle - much still intact, and a walled old town / Port. Can get busy if a cruise ship rocks up but itās all part of a beautiful Harbour anyway.
You are next to Budvar which is another walled town. We stayed just outside Kotor in Dobrota and visited Perast, further up the inlet and had a cracking lunch on the waterās edge
Excellent thanks. I like a good castle and good places to eat me.
Chuck in some hopefully good weather and itās looking good.
Tbf Mrs C_S usually picks great places for hols - ffs donāt anyone ever tell her I said thatā¦.
Went to Tivat some years back at the end of a self drive tour of Croatia
Itās a old port that has been redeveloped into a Superyacht haven - I wouldnāt recommend unless you have a Superyacht
Not been to Montenegro for too long. We, my brother and I, purchased a couple of properties around Kotor.
Never been to Becici or Budva but always heard good things.
Kotor is a beautiful place and worth the trip but as @Bucks said it can get busy when the cruise ships dock. The whole bay is stunning to drive around but be advised the average Montenegrin drives whilst on the mobile, smoking and changing the tunes. There are also some world class pot holes to knacker the rentals wheels on.
If you need any more detailed info Iāll ask my bro. Heās a frequent visitor and has a few contacts out there that will know the answers.
Flown in to Dubrovnik (Croatia) and it can be a long wait at the border. Tivat is best but limited flights there.
In the subject of driving around the bay - be careful. driving along one side is fine - proper roads etc
The other side - not so much - single lane traffic and many head to heads with aforementioned phone-toting Montenegrins
That drive probably took a couple of years off my projected life expectancy
I just drove slowly and ignored the rakija fuelled Monties.
Someone say Budva?
Loved that place. Went in about 1989 lots of restaurants all with same menus! Good old communist times.
Ate Chateaubriand every night! and fresh Whitebait off the boat & cooked in seconds
Loved the island there Sweaty Stephen IIRC
They need to hurry up and deploy this eveywhere
Brilliant
Until the carnage at security trying to come home & all the morons waving blue passports shouting Iām British it doesnāt apply to meā¦
Still will save me checking in my HO Sauce Mustard & Ales
Not seen much of the blue passport waving morons on my travels
What I would do is only allow those nations who let us through their egates (eg Spain / dutch) to use our egates at Heathrow / gatwick
Those who donāt (French) can fuck off into the long queue until they reciprocate
Think you misinterpreted my ramble.
What is the point of one or two UK Airports dropping liquid restrictions when most if not all global destinations will not have the same technology for 2, 3 or more years and so anyone travelling BACK to the UK will need a clear plastic bag & 100ml bottles.
Itās pointless without reciprocating and will cause confusion.
Here at Krakow they get āaggressive behaviourā from passengers returning to Shannon who do not want to lose their cosmetics
As Mrs P_F 's BFF says, they stand their waving their (EU) Passports at the staff, red in the face saying that rule doesnāt apply to them because they flew from Shannonā¦
Getting on a Stansted flight could take hours
tbf those that this will confused are probably already confused by the current arrangements
On the subject of security and luggage scanning, when i went to Valencia recently we were travelling hand baggage only
I stuffed all my electricals, smart watch, phone keys with air tags in my bag before going through.
As my bag came out the other side it took the right turn of disappointment but instead of going down the belt to the waiting security staff, it went the other way into a enclosed space.
I then got the third degree from a supervisor about what was in that bag - turns out that the combination of electrical stuff triggered a bomb threat warning
I bet it got worse when you told them to just call you Mohammed.
Weāre off to Iceland next week to avoid the pain of Saintsā demise.
Whale watching
One of the Lagoons
Fresh Line caught Salmon
And as much countryside as you can get to
Amazing place
Say good bye to your solvency
