Booking a taxi with Blic Taxi is simple

Booking a taxi in Montenegro used to mean finding a local number, explaining where you are standing and hoping the car that stops is the one you called. Blic Taxi replaces that with a map. You open the app, confirm the pickup pin, add where you are going and send the request to licensed drivers who are online nearby. From that moment the ride is visible on your screen: who accepted, where the car is and when it is close.

The steps above are the same whether you are ordering a taxi in Budva after dinner, leaving a hotel in Kotor, heading to a meeting in Podgorica or arriving at Tivat Airport with luggage. The app works in 10 languages, so the interface, the addresses and the ride details read the same way for a local passenger and for a visitor using it for the first time.

There is no phone call, no dispatcher and nothing to negotiate at the roadside. The request goes straight to drivers; the app tells you when one accepts.

The pickup pin is the single most important detail of a ride. When you open Blic Taxi, it places the pin at your current location. Check it against what you see around you: if the pin has landed on the wrong side of a busy road, inside a pedestrian zone, behind a hotel or on a beach promenade, drag it to the nearest spot where a car can actually stop.

This matters most in the places visitors love: the walls of Kotor Old Town, the promenade in Budva, the marina in Tivat and the arrivals area at either airport. A pin on an accessible road saves the driver a search and saves you a wait. If your location needs a hint, add a short note such as "main reception" or "outside the pharmacy".

You can also set a pickup point manually before you get there — useful when you are planning a departure from a restaurant or an early ride to the airport and want the address ready in advance.

Your request is offered to licensed drivers who are online near your pickup point. When one accepts, the app shows the driver and vehicle details and the car starts moving towards you on the map. Live tracking is not a decoration: it tells you whether to wait inside or head to the kerb, and it lets you confirm the registration and car description before you get in.

Availability depends on where you are, the time of day and how many drivers are online nearby. A request is not a guarantee of an immediate car — on a summer evening in Budva or when several flights land together in Tivat, assignment can take longer than on a quiet weekday morning. Allow a sensible buffer for anything time-critical and, if your plans change, cancel the request early so the driver is free for the next passenger.

During the ride the destination and route stay visible, so you can follow the journey and see it progress as expected. Drivers may reasonably choose a route based on traffic or road access; the point of the map is clarity, not second-guessing.

Every completed ride is saved in your ride history. Open it to see the route, the timestamps and the fare details for any past journey — helpful when you are splitting a cost with friends, checking which hotel entrance the driver used last time, or simply remembering how you got somewhere.

For work travel, download the PDF receipt. It includes a route map, timestamps, a fare breakdown and payment information, so an expense claim needs no reconstruction from memory or from a card statement days later. Frequent travellers usually save the receipt right after the ride, while the trip is still fresh.

For arrivals at Tivat Airport or Podgorica Airport, request the ride once you have your luggage and have reached the arrivals area, then set the pin at an accessible point outside the terminal. The airport pages on this site explain the pickup spots that work best at each one.

Longer trips between towns — Tivat Airport to Kotor, Podgorica to Budva, Bar to Ulcinj — work the same way as a city ride, and can be booked up to 30 days ahead when you want the transfer arranged before you travel. Browse the taxi transfers section for the route you need; each route page explains the road, the pickup and what to expect.
