The Mountains Start Before the Coast Does
From the terminal the lake is half an hour, Ostrog about an hour, and the motorway north puts Kolašin inside the hour. Choose the car for those roads rather than for the coast road and the whole week drives differently.
Drive Times
One car, six directions, zero tour-bus schedules.
Book the Automatic for the Climbs
The last stretch to Ostrog is single-track, with loose verges and blind bends, and it is where a manual stops feeling like a saving. If hill starts on a gradient are not your idea of a holiday, book an automatic. They are the first class to go in summer.
Driving Guides

Read guideAdd the Border Before You Collect
