Navigating Podgorica: The Pros and Cons of Taking the Train from Airport to Downtown

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, offers a unique but somewhat underdeveloped option for travelers looking to get from the city’s international airport to the downtown area by train. This train service, while cost-effective, presents certain challenges that travelers should be aware of.

Option Trip – The train station near the airport, known as the “Golubovci“, is not directly adjacent to the terminal. Passengers must walk a short distance, which is not particularly pedestrian-friendly. The path is poorly marked, lacks proper sidewalks, and offers little in the way of shelter or amenities. This can make the journey inconvenient, especially if you’re carrying heavy luggage or traveling in bad weather.

Furthermore, the train service between the airport and downtown Podgorica is infrequent, so it’s crucial to plan your trip carefully to avoid long waits. The train from Podgorica to Bar, with the Aerodrom stop just after Podgorica, is the relevant route. However, because of the limited service, checking the train schedule in advance is essential.

For those looking to save on transportation costs and willing to navigate these challenges, the train remains an option. However, for a smoother and more comfortable journey, especially for those unfamiliar with the area, alternative transportation like taxis or airport shuttles might be preferable.

Regardless of your choice, if you opt for the train, make sure to check the latest schedules to ensure your travel plans go smoothly.

Option Trip always recommends verifying local train schedules online or through local sources to get the most accurate and up-to-date information.
