Budva Center Car Hire

Budva center is Montenegro's most popular tourist destination with seven rental companies located in and around the old town – the largest selection of rental cars in the entire country. The medieval old town with its Venetian walls and Slovenska plaža beach makes Budva a perfect base for exploring the entire Adriatic coast. From here, you can reach Kotor in 30 minutes (22 km) and Podgorica in 1 hour (65 km).

Budva center stretches along Jadranská magistrala (E65) with most rental companies concentrated around Mediteranska ulica and the harbor area. Sveti Stefan peninsula, an iconic five-star hotel complex, is just 8 km to the south and is a must-see drive. Kotor Bay to the north offers dramatic fjord-like scenery.

With seven rental companies in the center, it's worth comparing prices directly on-site, but during July–August availability may be limited – book online in advance. Avoid driving into the old town with a car – park in the garage at the bus station and walk. Plan a trip to Durmitor national park (180 km, approximately 2.5 hours) as a full day excursion.
