Gusinje · Montenegro
Hi. You are probably looking for the same thing I was: where the bus actually stops in Gusinje.
I walked down from Vusanje to Gusinje and then spent a while trying to find the bus. There is no station, no shelter, no sign, no timetable on a pole. Every guide online says "take the bus from Gusinje" and stops there. So here is the exact spot where I found it.
Bus stop
No shelter, no sign, just a wide bit of the main road through Gusinje. The route starts here, so there is nothing to flag down.
42.56583, 19.83322
I walked this road to find the stop, and I keep checking the times so this page does not go stale like the guides that sent me here. There are no ads on it and no affiliate links. Coffee is the whole business model.
Buy me a coffee — €5The bus that pulls in here is Elan Company, heading to Plav and on to Podgorica.
Gusinje to Podgorica bus
The bus that pulls in at this stop runs to Podgorica four times a day, calling at Plav first.
Departure times
Four a day, all of them through Plav first.
Why a 47 km trip takes four hours
Because the bus does not go that way. There is no bus route straight over the mountains to Podgorica. It loops north through Plav, Berane, Mojkovac and Kolasin, about 195 km of road. Driving the direct way takes under two hours.
Tickets
Two options. Buy online at busticket4.me, which cost me 15.80 euros, and print the ticket before you travel. Or pay the driver in cash when you board. Luggage is 2 euros extra, also to the driver.
Worth saying out loud at the stop
