One can walk across this border on foot. The border crossing is fairly primitive and offers no amenities such as an ATM, toilet, or shop.

After walking across The border crossing from [[Montenegro]] to [[Croatia]] is on the outskirts of [[Herceg Novi|Herceg-Novi]]. You might find that people are hesitant to drive you over the border. If you find yourself on foot at the crossing, it's approximately 1.2km (moderately uphill) from the border station exiting [[Montenegro]] to the border station to enter [[Croatia]].  Once on the Croatia side of the crossing there is a large open area with parking places that you can stand just where all traffic leaving the border post will pass by. It's easy to catch a ride from there. It's likely that, at the very least, you'll catch a ride one with someone heading to the nearby Dubrovnik airport , where, if you're having a slow day, there are multiple buses taking shuttling arriving passengers to [[Dubrovnik]].  Keep in mind, though that it's much easier done in the morning/early afternoon since traffic gets sparse in the evenings.{{IsIn|Balkans}} Another good option is get to Lepetane by hitch-hiking or bus (€1.70 from Kotor) and look for a ride the Lepetane-Kamenari ferry, which is free for pedestrians. You can catch the ferry back and forth as many times as you need, and almost all cars that don't have MNE plates are going to Dubrovnik or further along the Croatian coast. This option will save you a lot of time if travelling to Croatia from Kotor.
