About R Line
Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with R Line. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

R Line buses ply a number of routes and here is the list of some of the most popular ones:
R Line Ticket Prices & Bus Classes
One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.
Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons
Pros of Bus Travel
- Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
- Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
- Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
- If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.
Cons of Bus Travel
- Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
- Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
- Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

Nobody likes surprises! Bus was modern and comfortable. Station was confusing. At the bus station I was informed that I needed to print a hard copy of my ticket, and that online ticket holders must pay a "station tax" of €0.50. They printed my ticket for me, but it wasn't clear whether that was complimentary or included in the "tax.".

information about the delay needed. The driver drove well. The bus delayed for 1hour and 10minutes because of heavy traffic jam between Pudva and Kotor. But there was no information about the delay at the bus terminal of Kotor.We had to wait for 1 hours and 10minutes standing near the gate.

Montenegro buses not the best. The printed ticket from traveling.com worked fine. No issues with company at all and the bus would have been sold out so it was a good idea to buy ahead. In the bus station you have to pay to be in the bus station and extra for luggage: The bus was nearly 2 hours late. Then everyone pushed and shoved on board to get seats leaving our family ( who had been almost first in the queue ) - including 2 children standing dangerously in the middle. The rude driver reluctantly found our smallest child a ‘storage’ seat at the front as it was really unsafe for her to stand but threw her out of the seat for an older man ( only 60ish) after an hour!) fortunately after an hour and a half enough people had got off for us to have seats for the final 2 hours.

The bus was 40 minutes late for arriving which made me almost miss my flight back to the UK. The driver was 40 minutes late which made me nearly miss my flight back to the UK due to the fact the driver when he eventually arrived drove 30mph all the way.

Herceg Novi to Tivat and back… Disaster. We had the last bus back to Herceg Novi from Tivat booked and paid for at 21:49. The bus didn’t turn up, waited for 1 hour. People working in the bus station at Tivat took our bus station fees (which come on top of bus fares) and proceeded to go home leaving us in the dark with no update on our no show bus. We had to get a taxi which cost €70.00 after already paying for bus tickets. Poor service all round.

An exciting ride through the mountains. The scenery was spectacular and we got to our destination in one piece! The bud was 40 minutes late but that’s not unusual I guess. The driver spent a bit of time on his phone as we were going along the coast road - one hand on the wheel, one with the phone! But I guess he knows the roads well….

Driver did not stop smoking. Bus was late on arrival, took longer than advertised to arrive to destination, I nearly missed a connecting route as a result which causes a lot of stress. Driver did not stop smoking the entire ride, as a result the bus was extremely hot since the ac couldn’t work properly with his window open the whole time.

The bus had a different designation than the R-Line. When the time of departure was approaching, the driver happened to ask us if we were going to Podgorica. When I showed him the ticket, he informed us that his bus was the one we had purchased. It was confusing.

Awful. Not on time. Not enough space. Tiny bus. There was aircon but too cold. Not.on time, not suitable to transport humans. The bus driver was shouting at me and asking why the girl next to me wasnt back from the toilet break. I was travelling alone so I had no idea what someone I dont know is doing in the toilet. Not worth €11.
