Visit Podgorica

Visit Budva, a historic coastal town in Montenegro. Explore the Old Town (Stari Grad) with its Venetian walls and citadel, relax on Mogren Beach (two connected sandy coves beneath cliffs), and see the Sveti Stefan island-hotel (a 15th-century fortified village turned luxury resort).

Visit Dubrovnik, a historic coastal city in Croatia. Walk the ancient city walls (2 km long with views of the Adriatic Sea and red-tiled roofs), explore the Stradun (main limestone-paved street lined with Baroque buildings), and see the Rector's Palace (Gothic-Renaissance palace housing a cultural history museum). Take a cable car up Mount Srđ for panoramic vistas over the Old Town and Elaphiti Islands.

Visit Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. Explore the historic Upper Town (Gornji Grad) with St. Mark's Church (colorful tiled roof depicting medieval coats of arms) and the Lotrščak Tower (19th-century cannon fired daily at noon). Stroll through the Dolac Market (one of the largest open-air markets in Europe, known for fresh produce and local crafts) and see the Museum of Broken Relationships (unique collection of personal objects and stories about failed relationships).
