Podgorica Car Rental

Car hire in Podgorica is concentrated at the airport twelve kilometres south of the centre and along the Bulevar Sveti Petar Cetinjski in the city centre. The major Balkan and international operators run desk service at the airport for all flight arrivals; the centre desks operate Monday through Saturday with shorter Sunday hours and book-ahead pickup outside those windows. Daily rates run twenty to forty-five euros for an economy class car and thirty-five to seventy for a mid-range estate or SUV; weekly rates drop to fifteen to twenty-five euros a day on bookings of seven nights and longer.

Most rentals include unlimited mileage within Montenegro plus collision-damage and theft coverage with a deposit-style excess. Cross-border travel into Albania, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia and Kosovo is permitted by most operators with a green-card supplement at five to ten euros a day. Drivers must hold a licence valid in Montenegro for at least two years and present a credit card at pickup. Booking ahead is sensible across the September to October stretch and the European holiday weeks.
