BOSNIA TRAVEL GUIDE

best things to see in mostar bosnia

Bosnia is a country where nature, culture, and religion meet. It is one of the most diverse countries of the Balkan region and a must-visit destination for travelers interested in history.

The two most visited cities of Bosnia are Mostar and Sarajevo, the capital. Each of them is unique in its own way. While Mostar still holds a lot of influence from its Ottoman past, Sarajevo is a mix of cultures.

It is not possible to talk about Bosnia without mentioning the amazing Bosnian cuisine. You didn’t really visit the country until you have a proper meal at a Ćevabdžinica or have a Turkish coffee.

Rent a car in Bosnia

We recommend renting a car if you want more freedom when defining your travel itinerary through Bosnia. If your license was not issued by a European country, then you may have to present your original license accompanied by an International Driving Permit. Keep in mind that many car rental companies may not request to see your IDP, as it is the driver’s responsibility to ensure they are within the law.

Travel insurance

When traveling to Bosnia from abroad, it is always important to have international travel insurance. To make sure you are covered in case something goes wrong, or if something happens while you will be hiking or swimming in the beautiful Kravice National Park, always double-check if your travel insurance covers all your needs. SafetyWing is the company we use to get our own travel insurance and the only one we can truly recommend.

Booking a flight to Bosnia

The biggest Bosnian airport is Sarajevo International Airport (SJJ) located in the capital of Bosnia. Flying to Sarajevo makes the most sense, as it is the biggest airport in the country, and will also offer the easiest access to the capital.
