Traveling Across Montenegro | The Journey to Podgorica

[@thebudgetbackpackers]

One of my favorite parts of your videos is when you sit down to eat after exploring all day. Well-earned local meal after a hard day of showing us the world. Thanks for sharing! :)

[@brunolima7402]

Montenegro seems to be a very nice country to visit and very affordable. The landscapes are amazing. Thanks for the video.

[@BelgradeArch]

It is beautiful, but the seaside is traffic congested, dirty (tons of garbage in the streets) and the sea us polluted (ask local fishermen about it).

[@BelgradeArch]

€ 56 per three nights is OK, if it is per single night it is a huge rip-off.

[@dsc6302]

Wow! Very mesmerizing views.Beautiful Architecture, wonderful sights.

Podgorica is equal hottest city in Europe along with Mostar. Can get up to 50 degrees Celsius in Summer.

For the north adventure you must take northwest part around Durmitor national park,passing through city of Niksic For the south there is Skadar lake,Bar city and Ada Bojana beach safe travels

Never thought of visiting this region before seeing it on YT. I had a lot of bad memories from seeing footage of the area in the 90s

[@PearlRubyJasper]

great video and good music

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Great, glad to hear it.

[@bfla1971]

Wow- such a beautiful place! Always wondered what it looked like. I spent months on a ship just off the coast in 94/5. But if you go a little further up the coast of The Adriatic, you'll find a whole bunch of disco pubs in Trieste. But thankfully you are heading south and back to Greece. Ever ask for coffee in Greece? They give you Nescafe. 😂

[@ragnarkophaug6313]

Another amazing video Gabriel. I stayed in Hotel Evrope as well in September last year, but air con was so noisy I couldn't use it, and had to have the window open. I only stayed 2 nights. I liked Podgorica been to worse capitals, but think Montenegro has absolutely better places to offer. I'm from Norway but I'm amazed how beautiful the Balkan mountains are.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Luckily the a/c here is smooth, otherwise that could definitely be a problem. Looking forward to getting out of the city and into the mountains.

[@MilaTheTravelJunkie]

Very scenic bus ride. Reminded me crossing the Messina strait going in a train from Napoli, the train gets in a ferry to cross to Sicily , I think it's only 2 places in the world that exist these trains crossing in a ferry, not sure which is the other country, I think is New Zeland but not sure. Not too interesting Podgorica, probably the little towns around are more picturesque.

[@Blablagerman]

That was a nice meal deal. The money you saved you could have spent for a sundowner or a shisha in the Skybar of the Hilton Podgorica😉

The man who started the Hard Rock Cafe, Isaac Tigeret, is from my hometown. I met him a couple of times. He married Ringo Starr's ex- wife. She passed in 1994.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Very cool. 👍

[@NanaFadnavis-q7f]

Where is the black mountain (Monte Negro) it is named after?

[@mifolyikittgyongyoson8052]

The name “Montenegro” derives from the Serbian “Crna Gora”, itself derived from the Venetian “Monte Negro”, and can be translated as “black mountain”, referring to the dark forests that once covered the Dinaric Alps.

[@vaultkeeper2]

Been there once for 1 night, and I am pretty sure I stayed at the same hotel as it was next to the train station. The ugliest national capital in Europe in a tie with Chisinau in my opinion, it still has it's charms though and nice green areas, and excellent affordable food!

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

I was thinking the exact same thing today in comparison to Chisinau. But I still like the city, very mellow for a capital, nice atmosphere and great prices.

[@nikolav5730]

The main reason for that is because Podgorica was completely destroyed during Second World War. It was bombed multiple times by Allies killing almost half of the population. After the war Podgorica was a capital of the smallest of the six Yugoslav republics and not so important city. It was rebuilt it socialist era architecture style. Those are the reasons why it is not appealing for the eye. On the other hand, it has a good climate (except 30-40 days during summer) and is a liveable city.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

@@nikolav5730 Crazy. I filmed a video tour today and gave it a pretty good review overall.

Hi Gabriel, incredibly quiet city for being the capital.

This restaurant food lifestyle gotta be doing some damage to your body. It’s a slow process. Do you ever consider an apt with a kitchen? This is the only thing that I worry about when traveling extensively. Restaurants use the worst and cheapest ingredients.

@@CallumScottieCambell Don’t be naive. I travelled the world and tasted every dish. No restaurant in the world at a tourist spot uses quality ingredients. It’s cost prohibitive. They use the cheapest oils and condiments. The cheapest meats and chicken and shit isn’t even refrigerated correctly. 99% of restaurants wouldn’t pass a surprise inspection.
