Rent a Car in Herceg Novi Bus Station

Herceg Novi bus station is located at the northernmost point of the Adriatic coast in Montenegro, just 2 km from the border with Croatia (Debeli Brijeg) and 50 km from Dubrovnik. Three rental companies operate at the bus station, making it easy to pick up a car and drive into Kotor Bay (30 km to Kotor, approximately 40 minutes) or further south toward Budva (65 km, approximately 1 hour). The bus station has good connections to Podgorica, Kotor and Sarajevo.

Herceg Novi is known as the "City of Mimosas" and is located at the mouth of Kotor Bay with views toward the Lustica Peninsula. The Old Town with its Venetian fortress Kanli Kula is 1 km from the bus station. Driving along the bay toward Kotor is one of Montenegro's most beautiful road stretches.

If you're planning to drive to Dubrovnik (50 km, approximately 1 hour including border control) - check that the rental company allows driving in Croatia. Driving along Kotor Bay can take longer than GPS shows due to narrow roads and tourist traffic.
