Serbia and Montenegro

Serbia and Montenegro amicably divorced in summer 2006, but please don’t let the split put you off, as there’s no reason not to get acquainted with both! Serbia hosts a great winter sports scene and one of the world’s highest concentrations of mineral spas – perfect for a little R&R – not to mention a lively and cosmopolitan capital in Belgrade. Montenegro, though smaller than its ex, is one of the fastest growing holiday destinations in Europe - as more visitors come to be swept away by the beauty of its gorgeous coastline and its interior's rugged mountain scenery.
