Landing in Montenegro soon? Whether you’re here for a relaxing holiday or a business trip, starting your journey with a Tivat Airport transfer or car rental is the smartest, most convenient choice. With Drive Smart Rent a Car, you can book a reliable transfer in advance or choose and pick up your reserved vehicle right at the terminal — no taxi lines, no delays, just smooth travel from the moment you arrive.
Why Choose a Car Transfer or Rental from Tivat
Tivat Airport is located just 10 minutes from Kotor and 30 minutes from Budva, making it the perfect landing point for exploring Montenegro’s coastline. But public transport is limited, and taxis can be expensive or unreliable.
That’s why car transfers from Tivat Airport or your own rental car give you full control, comfort, and cost-efficiency. Whether you’re heading to a mountain lodge, beach resort, or private Airbnb, we’ll get you there on your terms.
