Let's delve into the many reasons why Nava Rent a Car Montenegro stands out as the premier choice for car rentals in Montenegro.
Car Rental in Montenegro — Podgorica Airport & Tivat Airport
Nava Rent a Car provides vehicle rentals at Podgorica Airport (TGD) and Tivat Airport (TIV), available 24/7. The fleet includes economy cars, SUVs, vans, and luxury vehicles. Book online and pick up the car directly at the airport on arrival — no deposits paid in advance, transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
Car Rental at Podgorica Airport and Tivat Airport
Nava Rent a Car operates pickup and drop-off desks at both Podgorica Airport (TGD) and Tivat Airport (TIV), available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. One-way rentals between the two airports are available — useful if you fly into one airport and out of the other.
Reservations can be made online. The car is ready at the airport on arrival; no waiting for shuttles or transfers to an off-site depot.
The Fleet
The fleet covers four main categories:
- Economy and compact cars — models such as Fiat Tipo, Renault Clio, Volkswagen Polo. Best choice for city driving in Podgorica and day trips along the coast.
- SUVs and AWD vehicles — including Nissan, Kia, and Volvo XC60 AWD. Recommended for mountain routes (Durmitor, Prokletije) and unpaved roads in the north of Montenegro.
- Vans and people carriers — for groups or families with luggage.
- Luxury cars — available for airport transfers and special occasions.
All vehicles undergo regular technical inspections. Child safety seats and GPS navigation are available on request.
Rental Requirements
To rent a car from Nava, you need:
- A valid driving licence (held for at least 1 year)
- Passport or national ID card
- A credit card for the security deposit (debit cards are not accepted for the deposit)
Minimum age: 21 years. Drivers aged 21–24 are subject to a young driver surcharge. There is no upper age limit.
Additional drivers can be added to the agreement at the time of pickup for a small fee. Each additional driver must be present and provide their own licence and ID.
Insurance
Basic third-party liability insurance is included in every rental. Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is available as an optional add-on and reduces your financial liability in the event of damage to the vehicle. Note that CDW does not cover tyres, wheels, or the undercarriage. A police report is required in all accident situations.
Driving in Montenegro: What to Know
Montenegro drives on the right. An EU driving licence is valid; holders of non-EU licences should carry an international driving permit. The speed limit is 50 km/h in built-up areas, 80 km/h on open roads, and 100 km/h on fast roads. The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.3 g/l (lower than most EU countries).
Key driving distances from Podgorica Airport:
- Budva — approximately 65 km (50 minutes via the Sozina tunnel)
- Kotor — approximately 90 km (1 hour 10 minutes)
- Tivat Airport — approximately 85 km (1 hour)
- Žabljak / Durmitor National Park — approximately 150 km (2 hours 15 minutes)
- Ulcinj — approximately 100 km (1 hour 15 minutes)
Mountain roads in the north are narrow and winding. An SUV or AWD vehicle is strongly recommended if you plan to visit Durmitor, Prokletije, or the Tara Canyon outside of summer.
