Montenegro Road Trip

A couple of shots from our 42 day road trip to Montenegro

We covered 3899 miles or 6274 kilometres, have visited and stayed in 12 countries, crossed lots of international borders some of which we didn’t even know that we had actually crossed them. 

We travelled on toll roads and also used the Vignette system in three different countries and I still have the 2 Swiss Franc change from the Swiss vignette purchase, a lot of use that is, unless you are in Switzerland. The cheapest route through to Croatia is through Belgium, Germany and beyond as the French tolls are expensive however the roads are better and much quicker but you do miss out on views and interesting places to visit, you can also benefit from popping into Luxembourg and getting a tank full of cheap full. We also learnt that if you had a traffic cone business, in Central and Southern Europe is not the place to expect to make any money, as they just don’t use them. In fact they use very little in the way of defining road works, they just dig up the road and then let you drive over the rubble they have left behind, before they eventually return to resurface it, actually one thing they do have is a mechanical dummy dressed in Hi Vis Jacket waving a flag, which is pretty funny if nothing else.
