Air services to Yugoslavia are still getting off the ground since the lifting of UN sanctions. Check with your travel agent to see whether services to your country have been resumed - departure tax is 70 dinars. Buses travel from Budapest, Lyon, Munich, Paris, Thessaloniki and Zürich to Belgrade, usually via Hungary, and from Slovenia and Macedonia via Sid, the Yugoslav/Croatian border crossing. Trains from western Europe go via Budapest to Novi Sad, or you can get a train from Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece or Turkey to Belgrade. Ferries run between Bari in Italy and Bar in Montenegro.

Accommodation will be your biggest cost in Yugoslavia. There are very few budget hotels in the country, and at state hotels foreigners will be charged up to three times as much as locals. Train travel is reasonably cheap, buses a little more expensive - for example, a daytime train ticket from Belgrade to Bar will cost about $10.

All banks, travel agencies and hotels will change hard currency into Yugoslav dinars at the official rate. The biggest note is 100 dinars, which won't buy you that much, so unless you want to walk the streets with bulging pockets, only change small amounts at a time (particularly as it's very hard to change dinars back to other currencies). Keep in mind that, although the dinar is now fairly stable, Yugoslavia is prone to outbreaks of runaway inflation - in December 1993 the country scored Europe's highest ever inflation rate. Cash, especially Deutschmarks, is easier to change than any other form of currency.
