Looks like my wife and I will save a ton of money because we don’t drink.😂

I hardly do when Julie is around so it’s normally a very small part of our expenses. It will have a blip upward on the month of June expense video with my friend visiting, but not super dramatic.

As a American expat that has been traveling the world since 1977, I can confidently say MNE is the safest, and scam free country I ever visited, lived in. Only thing you might have to watch, count your returned small change by cashier. Never forget, this is a country with only two, three tourist months, so eating out, bars, especially on the waterfront, quite expensive. Most locals, can't afford it.

No offense Warren, but most of us would rather look at Julie...just saying😅

I would always try to not live in a place where cruise ships dock. The bars, restaurants, shops, etc are all designed to provide greatly overpriced, but very low quality products to take advantage of the unsuspecting tourists that are fascinated by the views.

@WarrenJulieTravel 3 ай бұрын

These areas are definitely more expensive.

We live near there, we use the beach at the hotel. The restaurant there is reasonably priced with good food.

Perast has an excellent Neapolitanian pizzeria that is much more reasonably priced than what you paid.

Great and fun video! In Portugal, we usually decline the couvert before the staff places them on the table.

@WarrenJulieTravel 3 ай бұрын

We don’t have an option to decline couvert in the restaurants in Montenegro where it is added to the bill. I think we can potentially get takeaway and avoid it, but that is the only option I know about.

I like that beer is €2.70. It's €7 in Ireland now 😢

@WarrenJulieTravel Ай бұрын

The prices will be much friendlier than Ireland, even in the more touristy areas.

Hi, Warren and Julie. I’m in need of some dental work, either in Southern/Eastern Europe or Turkey. Do you have any experience getting dental work outside the U.S. and if so, which country do you recommend? (I need one implant.). Thanks for any input you have…

@WarrenJulieTravel 3 ай бұрын

Turkey is the best for that. We have had some dental in Ecuador, Turkey and Montenegro. Our friends had extensive work done in Turkey.

If your're still near Kotor I can recommend you these restaurants: Joe's in Dobrota (Jedite kad Dzoa) for pizza or meat, Verige65 near Kostanjica - everything except for pizza or seafood (which is good, but overpriced), their sushi is amazing, in Kotor --> Fortuna Food, I'd recommend calamari in local bread lepenja, but everything there is good.... Hipnos in Risan --> fried calamari, but also meat is really good. Tramontana in Morijn --> best sandwiches at a good price + very nice terrace on the seafront

@WarrenJulieTravel 3 ай бұрын

Nice recommendations, we have been to a few of these, I’ll have to Google the others. Just a few more days for me this trip unfortunately, I can try next time if they are open during the off season.

@fotoz2363 3 ай бұрын

@@WarrenJulieTravel All of the restaurants I mentioned are open also outside of the season, some of them are closed mostly in February, as they are doing reconstructions + employees need to take vacation. Enjoy the rest of your stay! Can't wait to visit MNE myself, hopefully in September.

We're in Serbia a week ago and I enjoyed buying 20 500ml for €0.50 each. It was Nikšićko too which is my favorite beer. It's always fun to check out the local pubs. Thanks for the video.

I will be in Zlatibor soon myself. Buying beer in the store is definitely the better price break, and the 2 liter bottles for €1.89 😁👍

Oh man. 2 and 3 dollar pints !! Sign me up. I don't think my liver would survive. LOL The craft beers on east coast of US are 7 to 8 bucks a pint !! One place we no longer go to upped their pricing to 7.50 for 12 oz and 8:50 for 16 oz. So that's off our list. We have found a couple places that serve 5 dollar pints of good beer and one 6. Will have a couple at these places. Our friends and regulars at the other places have asked where we have been, and we flat out tell them the prices are too high. So more gatherings at home with store bought beer and homebrew. Seems the beer I make gets drank first. hmmmm...

Like Kotor, Budva, Bar, Petrovac, Herceg-Novi waterfront establishments, and much more expensive, huge new resort marinas, you're paying for the view.
