Believe me or not, but I have not heard of Bergen railway and Flam railway. This is definitely something I gotta check out. As for the trains in Belgrade, they are very comfortable for their price. Love the view from the window a lot!

This came at a great time, as we’re actually considering a trip to that part of the world and we adore train travel. How did you learn about it? You have me wondering if there are any other good rail trips in the area.

Hi Zorica, I found your blog informative and interesting,thank you.. you even answered a question about Monte/Serbia passport control.. as an EU citizen,i would have to have passport stamped but no visa, so border police actually come on train and stamp/check passport.. query solved.Enjoy your travels..thx again.

Hello!
I’m French and leaving tomorrow for Belgrade with a friend of mine. We’re going to take this train to Bar and spend 2 days in Montenegro, then take the train back to Belgrade (by night this time). Thank you for your post and wonderful photos, I can’t wait to be there, so excited! Do you think we have to make a reservation very early to get a 2-beth compartment for the ride back from Bar? (It’s going to be next Tuesday). My friend and I will probably go the the train station in Belgrade to buy the tickets! -
I forgot to ask you something, this is a stupid question but.. here it is: I’m afraid I’ll miss some beautiful landmarks (like the viaduct) because I’ll be sleeping and not knowing when during the ride we’ll get to see them… Do you see them in advance and have time to take photos? Did you get advice on the internet before your trip to know when they would “appear” etc… ? Thanks in advance π

Hello Zorica –
I’ve read what you’ve said about the journey in Winter … I’ve visited Montenegro and Serbia many times and travelled this route twice. But, always in the summer. Presently though I’m considering a week in Montenegro and Serbia in January travelling between Podgorica and, eventually, Beograd by train. I was thinking that the line would be very scenic at this time of year (snow ??) but perhaps I’m being a bit too optimistic !!
What do you think ? Thank you.
Les.
