Pick Montenegro 🇲🇪 if you're going in…

Honestly, Greece edges ahead in every month — but Montenegro is still rewarding if it's already on your list.

Visit Kotor before 10am or after 6pm in summer — cruise crowds vanish.

Pick Greece 🇬🇷 if you're going in…

October, November

Late September is the smartest week of the year for Greek islands.

Months where both are equally good: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, December.
