Few details There are basically 2 main airports in Montenegro: - Tivat (which I recommend) - Podgorica (capital city) It is better to have special insurance for sailing trip, which many insurance companies offer. Not mandatory, but highly recommended. Budva (marina where our boats are waiting for us) is in - 25 mins from Tivat and - around 2 hours from Podgorica Taxi is quite cheap (~10 -15 euros from Tivat to Budva). No special experience is required, We will tell you everything we know about sailing and Montenegro. Basic weather forecasts for the end of October say nothing in particular: ~20 C air, ~ 20 C water everybody is praying for the wind, but not too hard.
which includes: - boat charter, - part of the boat insurance, - payments for a few berth in the marinas where we will stay overnight - fuel - electricity in the marinas - water - food (not bars, but basic food that we will cook on the boat) - captains` transport expenses Price 650 euros If after all we have solid undamaged boats and everybody is alive, we will make a nice dinner in the end of the journey, which is our duty. : ) which does not include: - personal health insurances, - tickets, - personal transport expenses (to Budva and back to the airport) but if we have big part of the crew simultaneously arrived - we can organize cheaper transportation) - museums and other cultural and non-cultural amusement
