Sarah M. - United Kingdom - Tivat Airport - June 2024

No deposit was a relief

Picked up a Skoda Fabia automatic at Tivat Airport for two weeks. The fact that they did not block any funds on my card was a huge relief as I was travelling on a budget. Staff were friendly, car was clean, and the insurance covered everything. Drove around the Bay of Kotor and down to Budva with no issues. Highly recommend 4Drive if you want straightforward car hire in Montenegro.

Marco L. - Italy - Podgorica - July 2024

Perfect for exploring the mountains

Rented a Dacia Duster for a week in July to explore Durmitor National Park and the Tara Canyon. The SUV handled the mountain roads perfectly. No deposit meant I did not have to worry about my credit card limit. Paid cash at pickup in Podgorica city office. The staff explained the cross-border letter for driving into Albania. Everything was transparent and easy. Will use 4Drive again next summer.

Oliver K. - Germany - Kotor - May 2024

No credit card needed - brilliant

I only have a debit card and many rental companies in Europe require a credit card. 4Drive accepted my debit Mastercard without any problem. Collected a Volkswagen Polo in Kotor and drove the serpentine road up to Lovcen and Njegos Mausoleum. The views were stunning. Car was economical and easy to park in the narrow streets of Kotor Old Town. No hidden charges, everything included. Excellent service.

Smooth pickup at Tivat Airport

Arrived at Tivat Airport on an evening flight. The 4Drive representative met me at arrivals with a sign. Paperwork took only 10 minutes. I paid cash and they did not block any deposit. Drove a Toyota RAV4 for 10 days around Montenegro - Perast, Kotor, Budva, Skadar Lake, and even crossed into Albania with the green card letter they provided. Returned the car with a full tank and walked away. Perfect experience.
