Podgorica Airport Transfer Guide (2026) - All Options & Tips
Airport transfers in Podgorica: taxi, bus, train, and shuttle options from the airport to the city center, with costs and journey times in Montenegro.
Helpful Tips
Buy a Podgorica City Card at the main bus station for discounted rides on public buses and museum entries.
Use the 'Taxi Podgorica' app to order metered cabs, look for the blue 'TAXI' sign on the roof to avoid unlicensed drivers.
The train station is a 15-minute walk from the city center. Trains to Bar and Belgrade depart from here.
Local buses 6 and 8 run every 15 minutes between the main bus station and the city center, pay the driver in cash when boarding.
Common Scams to Avoid
Taxi drivers at the official rank sometimes insist the meter is "broken" and quote inflated flat fares to the city center. Insist on the meter or walk 50 m to the taxi booth inside the terminal where fixed-price vouchers are sold.
Unlicensed drivers in the arrivals hall pose as "official airport transfer" and charge 2, 3 times the regulated taxi rate. Only accept rides from drivers displaying the airport-issued badge at the designated taxi stand outside.
Currency-exchange kiosks in the baggage-claim area advertise "zero commission" but use a marked-up rate far worse than downtown banks. Change only a small amount for immediate needs and use ATMs or city-center exchanges for the bulk of your money.
