If you are the type of traveller to sneak away from group tours to check out what's down a little side-alley, or fancy booking a holiday to a place none of your friends have heard of before, then Montenegro should be your next destination. This tiny country in the Balkans has had its share of strife, being a part of Yugoslavia's civil war in the 1990's, but now, with its Mediterranean climate, sandy beaches, beautiful forests, and historical buildings, Montenegro is moving up the charts on traveller's go-to lists.
