Per 15-25€ per day for two.

If you do not want to live in the hotel, you can rent an apartment or apartments. Prices for apartments in Montenegro depend on the specific resort, from the season and rental period. Moreover, the rental price is often directly related to the quality of housing.

Average prices on daily rent. Apartments in Budva for months:

April - OT 15€

May - 20€

June - 25-30€

July-August - from 40 € to 60-120 €

September - 25€

November - March - 250-350 € per month

In the summer, most apartments give up only for rent, and in the low season, on the contrary - only on long term (a few months).

Communal payments during monthly leases can be included in the price, but most often paid separately, and the amount of electricity costs, water and the Internet can reach 100€ per month.

Tourist apartments can be rented on Bucking. There are housing offers from 15 euros per day in different cities of Montenegro.

We shot an apartment for a month through a group on Facebook, but the same apartments can be found on Bucking, a post about ☞ (apartment with two bedrooms and views of the mountains).

If your rest will last a couple of weeks, it is easier to rent via the Internet and do not bother.

For example, we have an apartment search and communication with different realtors left for 4 days, plus a ride to the bank for the translation of the advance. Even wanted to give up recreation in Montenegro, but in the end they found an apartment that more or less approached for the price and quality.

Little bedroom in our apartment

Our apartment Stoila 540€ For a month with a communal. Prepaid expense 160€ (30%) listed through the "Contact" system - she had the smallest commission.

As a result, it turned out that the apartment itself is rented in May for 380€ with communal, and 160€ - These are realtor services.

It was possible to remove something for a couple of days via the Internet and look for accommodation in place on the signs Sobe.. In May, find an apartment in Budva is not a problem at all, but, sitting in Minsk, I did not know that.

About rental housing in Budva will be a separate detailed post.

Tourist collection

Visa in Montenegro is not needed. By arrival at the airport there is a free stamp. Russians for 90 days, Belarusians - by 30.

In Montenegro, there is a concept as a mandatory tourist collection. If you rent private apartments, check if this collection is included in the housing price, or it will have to be paid additionally. Usually it is stated in the description of housing.

The amount of collection depends on the region and fluctuates from 0.8 before 1€ a day per person. More This issue will be discussed in the article by Montenegro.

We paid the tourist collection of the owner of the apartment. Dali 56€ (by 1€ A day with every person for 28 days) and passports. Now introduced electronic registrationtherefore there is no paper confirmation.

If you live in the hotel, then the tourist collection can be already included in the room rate, and the registration can produce without your knowledge. Therefore, often on the forums you can find reviews that there is no collection, but it is not.

Rent a car in Budva

If you relax at least together, it is more profitable to travel around Montenegro on cars, especially if you remove the car for several days and ride over long distances (200-300 km).

Rent prices for cars in Montenegro

1-2 days - from 35 before 50€ per day

3-7 days - from 25€ in a day

Product prices in Budva

Vegetables and fruits can be bought in supermarkets or on the market Zelena Pijaca. (Zalena Piaza). The range is almost identical, but in the stores prices below 30-50% .

In the market they love to talk about the fact that all vegetables and fruits from their garden, but in fact, many products are imported, and prices in supermarkets on them below one and a half times.

Even strawberries, salad, I buy a cherry in network supermarkets Mega Market. (Three stores in Budva). The quality of goods is the same, and the price is lower. If there was no strawberry at a supermarket on some day, then I go to the market - it always looks good there. More peaches on the market are big and mature, and in supermarkets for so-so.

Only tourists go to the shopping market. Locals are slaughtered in supermarkets, and they are traveling for the city or even to Podgorica, where prices are significantly lower.

Fruits on the market in Budva. Prices need to ask, you can bargain
Pass on the market in Budva

I went for a couple of weeks Mega Market.But at a more attentive price analysis found out that, as in Minsk, various products make sense to buy in different places.

For example, in Mega Market cheaper vegetables, toilet paper, sausages, but prices for pate, water and cheeses is more profitable in Idea..

There are still networks Aroma. and Franca.Where the prices on the strawberry, cherry, salad, chips and beer are lower than in other stores. BUT B. Aroma. and Franca. Fruits often look bad, so I rarely look there.

When you come for a couple of weeks, you do not pay attention to such trifles, and if for several months, then you can analyze the list of purchases and understand where it is more profitable.

Mega market and market in one building, and prices are different

Mussels for 10 euros in the restaurant. Sicily has been tastier

Prices for tea and coffee in Montenegro

If you can not live without tea, bring it with you. In supermarkets, normal tea is not for sale. What is sold for 2-3€ , it is impossible to drink.

IN Mega Market. Near the market there are green tea Greenfield ( 2.5€ For a small box and 4.5€ For a big one) and black Lipton. It is difficult to call tea, but still better Chernogorsky tasteless.

Montenegro - Coffee country. Coffee for sale "Powder" 1€ for a pack. I'm already sick of such coffee in Georgia and Armenia, so I'm looking for coffee a conventional grinding.

How much can rest in Montenegro

Let's catch the average budget summer holiday in Budva for two people for 10 days

1. Housing - 400 €

We take an average price

40€ * 10 = 400€

2. Food - 500 €

If you eat 2 times a day together in a cafe, then it turns out on average:

10€ per person * 2 people * 2 times * 10 days \u003d 400€

Plus somewhere 100€ For breakfast, ice cream, fruits, drinks.

This is an approximate figure that in your case can make up as 200€ , so I. 1000€ Depending on what and where you will eat and drink. If every day go to fish restaurants, then expenses will be significantly higher.

3. Insurance - 8 € per person

Insurance for a trip to Montenegro is not mandatory, as for Shengen, but it does not hurt it.

Compare insurance of different companies and buy online insurance. About what insurance companies usually choose I wrote.

4. Rent a car and gasoline - 220 €

10 days on the beach lie boring, so you can rent a car of the day at 4. You can rent a car for the entire travel time to get transport at the airport and rent in the same place, saving on the shuttle. Gasoline costs will depend on where you will ride.

25€ * 4= 100€

Gasoline - near 100-120€

5. Excursions - 130 euros per person or 260 euros for two

There are 4 most popular excursions, during which you can see the main attractions of Montenegro:

Canyons of River Tara and Morach + Lunch - 45€

Bike Buds from Budva - 25€

Skadar Lake - 35€

Mount Calchen and quoting - 25€

It turns out that the purchase of 4 excursions and car rental for two people for 4 days at a price plus-minus is comparable. If you are afraid to drive a car or do not want to strain, you can buy excursions where you feed, carry and tell.

6. Transfer from the airport 50-80 € By taxi in two sides

In Montenegro, there are 2 airports: Tivat and Podgorica

The closest to Budva is Tivat Airport.

TOTAL 1220 € +

Thus, the average cost of an independently organized comfortable stay in Montenegro in 10 days for two people is about 1220€ Tickets.

This amount can be both much higher and below. This includes food in a cafe, accommodation, transfer from the airport, 4-5 excursions or a car rental for several days.

Can be added the cost of the chaise lounger and the umbrella, if you plan to rent them on the beach (about 10-15€ in a day). Often sun loungers are near restaurants. If you order food and drinks, you can lie free.

Tours in Montenegro

In the summer of Montenegro, you can buy an inexpensive tour on the Internet. The visa is not needed, so you can watch the last minute offers on or on - there are more specials. Proposals and burning tours.

There are tours in 300-400€ With a person for tickets + housing + transfer, so it is obvious that the tour will often cost cheaper than an independent holiday.

This article will be complemented. If you are interested in prices in Budva on specific products and excursions, ask questions in the comments.

P.S. About prices for renting chaise lounges and umbrellas on different beaches wrote in the article about.

Low prices in Montenegro and a pleasant stay!

Welcome to you dear readers! Today I have another interesting interview interview in my blog abroad. Self-journey, what could be more interesting? Somewhere from half a year ago I met charming and what an unmarried smart girl is cute demenitsa. Despite his young years, Mila has been traded more than 10 countries, including: Belgium, Guatemala, Malaysia, Thailand, Mexico, Baltic countries.

Guatemala, Antigua, collaboration of the monastery

Of course, as part of one interview, it is difficult to cover everything. Mila has a very interesting life that many dreams about.

Interview with Mile Demenkova about independent vacation abroad.

Mila I read about your life, before traveling. But it will be better if you herself will tell you about yourself. After all, you changed your entire lifestyle.

Oh what to start))). Once I worked as a chief accountant in a solid company. First in Minsk, then in Moscow. Good salary, bonuses, corporate apartment, own cabinet, full social package, free schedule. But there was a feeling that over 8 years of work reached the ceiling in his profession.

And one day it became scary that I see all my life in a large leather chair, accumulating the material benefits, and without trying everything that life could give. Then she traveled one day into Europe with a backpack behind his shoulders, after which he decided to radically change life. I had accumulated money, wrote an application for dismissal and went to Asia for several months. It may sound like escape from problems, but at that time there were no problems in my life. Just needed a fresh look, some kind of shake, to understand what I want to do next.

Well then immediately suggests the question for what means are you traveling? As you know, on your own holiday abroad is cheaper than organized tour, but still we need money for tickets, food and accommodation.

The first independent journey earned money, working in the office. Then I realized that I don't want to return and engage in the same thing, we need alternative sources of income. Began to study the possibilities of remote earnings via the Internet. Now I have advice on traveling, I help people to plan a trip, make up the routes, write articles to order, translate, teach English, developing several own Internet projects.

A lot has to learn from scratch, and it is unrealistic great! I never know how much I earn this month, but in the uncertainty, too, there is something. It mobilizes, allows you to test yourself for strength, find out what I am capable. It turned out that on a lot)))

Great Mila! If you are engaged in translation, then with English, you have no problems, and how with other languages? There were cases when ignorance of a language of a country led to a difficult situation?

Languages \u200b\u200b- It is from my main passions, I will teach them constantly with great pleasure. True, perfectly own only English, Spanish at the level of conversational, in Italian and German I can link a couple of proposals))).

Regarding the difficult situation, due to ignorance, one moment was remembered. I was then only flew to Malaysia and did not understand Asians at all. I was looking for a certain station in Kuala Lumpur, I was sent there, then there. On that day, 3 bus terminals at different parts of the city traveled under heavy rain. I remember how all the wet was stood and cried from powerlessness. And all from unpreparedness. Now, of course, this would not have happened because experience independent travel much more.

Perhaps it is after that case, you understood that it is strong and can continue to travel on your own. Mila you visited interesting places in Asia, Europe and America. Tell me please, what are the distinctive features of these continents? From the point of view of the tourist?

Oh, the differences are colossal. In Europe, everything is clear. Prices are high, but also quality at the level. This applies to the convenience of movement on public transport, and organization of life, and how it is done for the convenience of people. Traveling around Europe is very easy.

Nicaragua, Island Other

Asia is cheaper and more exotic, but there is their nuances. You can walk the help and gibbing, trying to dilute money, somewhere there will be a non-departious outside of the houses with an earthen floor, garbage, but there people sincerely smile and rejoice in life. We have something to learn from Asians. Asia should go if you are in a state of stress or anxiety. Everything removes everything there. It's hard to say about Latin America, because each country is unique. Somewhere there is an Asian chaos, such as in Nicaragua, and somewhere a European organization, as in some cities of Mexico.

If you sit at the hotel 5 * "All inclusive", then the differences between continents are not particularly visible. I drive to find out, see and feel the differences, so often I get to such places where tourists do not go, but it is there you can see a real life.

Nicaragua, volcanobording, volcano Sierro Negro

The more I watch your photos, the more questions I have questions. After all, as often happens ... someone came from the journey and let's boasting it to the monument, I am near the monument, and this and this and I went over to the buffet .... And then solid exotic! Okay, I will ask about orange suits in the comments.

Mila are you traveling a lot on yourself, but did you buy tours in the agencies? What is better organized journey or independent?

Before went to an independent trip, went through travel agencies. Once he went on a tour to Italy. I remember, we were lucky for 4 hours in Naples, and then allowed to be like a city around the city only 40 minutes, because according to the program it was necessary to return to Rome for dinner. As a result, they spent 8 hours on the road, in order to walk for 40 minutes one of interesting cities Italy. After that, I shook the tours. Now I decide where and how much time I will spend.

Vouchers to the sea can be bought if it is popular tourist area. For example, a ticket to, Bulgaria and Egypt gets cheaper than a plane ticket. Sometimes I don't want to think and spend time on recreation planning, then it's easier to buy a ready-made package. But it is scarlet compared to the fact that you can organize yourself, often for less money)).

Mila Do you have a favorite country or city? If so, what are you the roads?

Favorite city is Minsk. It was born, my relatives and friends live here. It's amazing how four years ago I dreamed of going from here, and now, having traveled Polimyr, I understood the meaning of the word "house." Only I am completely different. Now I know that it does not matter where to live, the main thing is who you are doing with your loved one, whether you feel joy and satisfaction.

Independent trip - Mexico, Ruins Tulum

Favorite country of course Mexico. It turned out to be randomly. She was going to Ecuador, but the ticket in Mexico is cheaper. I thought I would stay in Mexico a couple of weeks and I will go to Ecuador on the ground. Two weeks stretched for three and a half months, then the visa ended tritely, and I had to fly to Panama, and so I feel left to live in Mexico:D.

It is impossible not to fall in love with Mexico because there is absolutely everything. Mountains, volcanoes, waterfalls, Pacific Ocean, Caribbean, Indian tribes and modern megalopolises, shamans, colonial cities, rich story and culture, friendly people, incendiary dances, as well as one of the best kitchens in my opinion. True, women are not so beautiful there as we, but I don't need them))).

Holidays abroad -Mexika, Caribbean Sea

What wonderful pictures! As for women, it really does not matter, well, except if the rest abroad will be associated with the marriage agency))).

Mila How do you feel about exotic cuisine, maybe there is a favorite dishes?

Oh, with a kitchen I have completely trouble. I choose from the menu the name is painful, then elbows biting)). Once ordered soup in a Chinese restaurant. They brought, and there from the black gracious, a chicken paw with nails on the fingers, and the first dish that ordered in Mexico was pork skin in mustard sauce.

Photos of this dish I saw on your blog, yes .... He is far from appetizing!)))

Favorite dish is a Mexican Tampiqueña steak with gumapo sauce. Unforgettable taste. And of course, mussels in Brussels. There is a street with restaurants, where for 17-20 euros bring a whole saucepan. Mitudi at first there is a strange taste, but it clings so that I also want.

Mila shall share personal experience, and rather the contents of your backpack. What are really necessary in the independent journey?

Tanya, this question can be reasoned for a long time.Really needless passport, money, bank card, laptop, camera, sneakers for running, good mood and at least one beautiful dress)). Everything else depends on the climate of the country, where I am going.

Mila on your paths met various cities and countries. Were among them, where the attitude to Russian tourists did not like?

You know, Tanya, probably, no. On the other hand, it is difficult for me to judge, because I am Belarusian, and not Russian. Belarus few people know why always asked with interest. Often, it is often the only Belarusian who visited such a hotel, or the first Belarusian, who has gone from a volcano, etc. In addition, traveling to places that are not very popular among Russian tourists, so local residents There is no reason to relate to us biased.

What is the most difficult for you away from your home?

There are days when everything goes wrong. Titled, everything is not glued, people come across strange. I want to buy return ticket And today to fly home. Then the question pops up: "What am I doing here?" And the answer to him: "There is no expensive, you are here, because I wanted to be here, so look for a way out of the situation, and not so much and complain about fate." Moreover, such moments do not depend on that, I go or with someone. Both houses and abroad arise problems and difficulties that need to be overcome.

Mila and the last question. Which country is best to go on your own for the first time?

Now cold, so I advise everyone to go to Thailand))) For the first independent travel to the sea, the country is ideal. And if closer, it is easiest to go to any of the countries of Europe. Made a visa, bought a ticket, booked hotels and on the road.

Here is such an interesting interview about holiday abroad with us with lovely. I hope my friends liked you. As you understand with a sweet, you can talk for a very long time! Every her story is a separate story about beautiful places On our land.

More details about their travels Mila talks on his blog about budget travel According to Europe, Asia and Latin America http://bptrip.ru/. I always read it with great interest and believe me, one article is not limited to.

Mila communicates a lot with the same as she lovers of independent travel. So if you have questions, do not hesitate to ask! If you like to visit interesting countries and cities, be sure to go to the blog Mila and stroll through the pages of her magazine.

I want to thank Mile, for such a wonderful interview and kindly provided materials. Milkoy I wish you to fulfill everything conceived! Let only kind and positive people meet on your paths. Let every new corner of our planet opens up all the beauty for you. And let all the knowledge gained will be for the benefit of you and everyone who surrounds you!

Hi friends! Today I want to introduce you to my compatriot, positive, open and benevolent girl. She travels a lot around the world and leads its own author's blog on budget travels in Europe, Asia and Latin America.

Meet Mila Demenkova. We met on about. Samui and I recorded an interview with cute so that every person understand what it is to live in travel.

Mila, you travel for a long time and you work for yourself. Did you ever work for hiring?

Of course, I worked for a long time for hiring for about 8 years, first just an accountant, and then the chief accountant in different companies.

And what did you serve as the most important jolt to start traveling and change your life?

The most important push, this is what I did not like my job. I understood that something was wrong here. A person should do what he likes, otherwise why live. This is, strictly speaking, was the first call. But and then I met people who told me that you could look for opportunities and live a little differently.

When did you decide to go on a long journey, how did you treat your decision relatives? Did they support you?

My relatives were shocked! They first did not understand, they thought that this some other fault and said that I would not go anywhere else. But then they realized that it was serious when I said that the ticket was purchased and I was leaving. Then they wanted, began to discourage. But not all. Mom supported me and I am very grateful to her that in any situation she supports me and always on my side. It's very nice! Friends, of course, too, told that cool - drive. And this is understandable, they do not go with me. Different opinions. Someone said that I would come back in a week with a tailed tail on my old work, and someone believed in me.

What is the first country that you visited?

The first country for a long journey was Malaysia, then Thailand, Philippines.

When did you just start traveling if you had any difficulties? And if so, how did you overcome them?

Difficulty, of course, were. There were many difficulties, first of all it was difficult to quit work. Naturally, when you have been doing one thing for many years, you're accustomed to a certain way of life and also I also had serious relationship with a young man in Moscow. Therefore, the most difficult moment for me was to leave him and go on a journey. But the journey at that moment was that I really needed, so I made a choice in favor of the dream.

And how has your life changed after you start to travel yourself?

My life has changed dramatically! I found a favorite deal thanks to the journey, I quit up with the unloved job, I live in a circle of like-minded people, I spend most Time where I want, where I warm and cozy. Or, where it is cold, but also good. Therefore, now I choose how much I work when I work. And naturally my life has become more harmonious and balanced. I like it much more than the old life.

Tell me, please, how do you earn travel?

Initially, I had cash accumulations for which I went to Asia, then I began to engage in freelance: I wrote articles under the order, I was engaged in copywriting, translated some documents. But then I realized that this is the way to nowhere, because Freelance does not give enough freedom. Because you still work for someone and earn money by spending your time, so I started developing my blog and over time he began to bring me income. I also support travel advice and I also like it very much.

Mila, you said you found your favorite business. Please share how you were looking for it.

To find it, I tried a lot of things. I was engaged in affiliate marketing, sold plugins for a vordpress in the English-language Internet, taught English, wrote to order articles, I was engaged in translation, conducted excursions in place. And then I watched what I liked, and what not. What a part of the classes dropped. Now I can say for sure that I love to write. Everything else is coming and leaving. And with people, of course, I love to communicate.

And how usually goes your day? What hours do you work, and what are you resting?

My day depends on where I live, where I am, because the climate is very affected. For example, here in Thailand on about. Samui, the day is very hot and it is uncomfortable to work in the heat, because I love to work outdoors, on the street. And accordingly, during the day I am looking at sights, I meet with friends, and in the evening I love to work. I love to write at night, work in the evenings, and in the morning I can't get up. Accordingly, I work either in the evening or at night.

Mila, how do you think, what is the secret of your success? After all, not every person can afford to live a free lifestyle and engage in a loved one.

It still matters what to determine success. For me, success is when a man is happy. Therefore, the secret of success is that I do a favorite thing that brings me satisfaction, energy. I surrounded myself like-minded people: people with whom I feel good and interesting. I live where I want, where I am comfortable. That's all right. That is, you yourself build your life and determine your success, you yourself can change, rebuild and add something that you are a happy, successful and harmonious person.

Thank you very much, Mila, what answered my questions.

Thank you for inviting me.

Successes, friends! And to new meetings!

I am always glad to your comments!

Dear friends, I am glad to present to your attention an interview with Mile Demenkova, which leads a very interesting blog about his travels http://bptrip.ru. I first got on her blog just a couple of days ago. I immediately liked him and I subscribed to RSS ribbon. For the articles of Mila, you can immediately see that she loves to keep her blog and does it with a soul. I thank you for a wonderful interview, nice pictures And attended time.

So, meet - Mila Demenkov!

Hi, Mila! Please tell us about yourself. Where was born, grew, where and who he studied, who managed to work? In which city are you now? How is the weather there?

Hi, Mikhail! First, thank you very much for your blog, which I am happy and interested for about two years, drawing a lot of useful information for myself. I also thank you for decided to take my interview.

Hello, dear blog readers Shakin.ru! My name is Mila Demenekov. I was born in Minsk, after which the family moved to the military town of Znamensk, which in the south of Russia, so childhood passed in the edge of summer midges, delicious river crayfish, ripe watermelons and walking winter frosts. In high school, returned to Minsk again, where the Minsk State Trade College finished first, and then the Belarusian State Economic University, receiving diplomas of an accountant and economist.

In parallel with studying since the 17th years began to work with a specialty accountant, in 19 years old became the chief accountant and worked in this position for several years in different companies. First in Minsk, then in Moscow. After the radically changed his life, starting most of the time to spend on a journey, engaged in copywriting, I provide consultations, earn some money on my blog.

Now I am in Minsk. In childhood, parents brought me to her grandmother in Minsk on vacation, since then I love to spend the warm months in this city. Now the weather is beautiful, +20 and rain. But not hot.

How did you come to start traveling? Many are afraid to quit work and change the usual way of life. How did you decide this question for yourself?

Perhaps it was one of the most difficult solutions in life. At that time I was engaged in accounting about 7-8 years and thought that I could not know anything else, and it was too late to master new areas of activity (some stupidity!). I hated my job, but I did not know what I would like to do instead. And then I went on vacation to Europe, I met the guys who were traveled for six months, a year, and realized that this is what I will help now! I learned how much money I needed, I realized that I could afford such a "vacation" not a few months, and one in Asia flew away. And then went to go. Southeast Asia, Latin America, Europe. There is enough remote earnings for travel, so there is no need to return to the unloved job and be tied to one city.

Mila, if any of the readers of my blog wants to contact you about writing articles, how do they find your contacts?

All my contacts, as well as rates for services, can be found on the blog view http://bptrip.ru/copywriting/.

Mila, you have a very interesting blog. How did you decide to start it? After all, many travel and either in general they do not write about it or publish their stories and photo reports in various tourist communities.

Mikhail, thanks for the compliment to my blog. At first it was just a diary in LiveJournal for family and friends, to know where I, what I do, how are you. Then he decided to postpone records for a separate domain. Over time, the blog began to find other people, ask questions, write messages to the post office, so I started publishing articles with useful information: Where to live, what to buy, what to see what prices in a particular country. A blog is my territory where you can show yourself, experiment, communicate, is also a convenient tool for finding customers, like-minded people, new friends.
