Public transport in Bar, Montenegro

by

The city of Bar on the coast of Montenegro cannot be called the most popular tourist destination, but you can always find vacationers here. This is partly due to lower prices compared to many other coastal cities, and partly due to its proximity to Podgorica Airport and the border with Albania
