You step out of Tivat’s modest terminal into warm Adriatic air; a driver holds a name card while the minibus hums and waits. The road from Tivat to Budva unspools along sun-cut limestone and low pine ridges, opening occasional windows onto the glittering Bay of Kotor and the distant silhouette of Sveti Stefan. It’s a short stretch of coast but an immediate introduction to Montenegro’s pace: relaxed, visually dramatic, and quietly historic.
