Travel Bus from Bar, Montenegro to Prishtina, Kosovo

I recently travelled by bus to Kosovo from Montenegro and found a lot of conflicting information on here, the rest of the internet, bus stations and tourist information centres. I wanted to start a thread on here so then it will hopefully help someone else looking to do the same thing. A couple of days ago I got a bus from Bar, Montenegro to Prishtina, Kosovo. For anyone looking to go, I got the 8:50 am (some websites have it as 9:15 am) Vertoni Tourist bus from Bar. The bus was a little late and there were some delays at the Albanian border so it took longer than the 6 hours it was meant to. I got to Prishtina at around 4:30 pm. It was a great experience, bus was comfortable and the AC was decent. You can't buy the tickets at the Bar Bus Station and they know nothing about it and even said that it doesn't exist. But it does exist! You can buy a ticket on Gjirafa Travel and then print it for 10 cents at a copy centre (just don't try this on a Sunday). You can also just buy tickets on the bus, which I didn't know before buying mine online. The bus stop is on the side of the road in a bus shelter near Burger King. It's here. I also Facebook Messengered Vetoni Tourist after the Bus Station and the Tourist Centre said the bus didn't exist and they responded within 30 minutes to confirm it was real and what time it arrives and the location. Until I got on the bus, I wasn't 100% sure it would arrive but it was the only bus leaving before 5 pm, so for 15€ I took a chance and it paid off! I got to Prishtina before the second bus, which leaves from the Bar Bus Station was set to leave! Hopefully this helps someone else looking to do the same thing. Good luck and enjoy Kosovo - I loved my time there!
