DISCOVER MONTENEGRO

It’s gorgeous. It’s unique. It’s magic. It’s Montenegro. If you're looking for an extraordinary locale to add to your travel bucket list, you couldn’t find anywhere better - a place where stunning mountains, crystal clear waters and medieval villages dance in perfect sync.

A mix of Mediterranean, Eastern European and Turkish influences have helped to shape Montenegrin cuisine, which features fresh seafood, meat, vegetables and fruits whipped together in a fantastically flavorful fashion. Montenegro is also known for its red wines, made from Vranac grapes that are native to its mountains.
