The most frequent lines in Bosnia and Herzegovina are sure ones that go from Sarajevo to other cities like Banja Luka, Mostar, or Tuzla. This is due to the fact that these cities have an airport and count a solid number of travellers over the year period.

One of the easiest travel routes by bus or train is Sarajevo Mostar. You can choose the faster way – the bus or the slower but more picturesque – train. 

Most popular transport company: Autoprevoz – bus d.o.o. Mostar

Banja Luka is the second-largest city in Bosnia and Herzegovina. If you opt to go from Sarajevo to Banja Luka by bus it is an easy option. Be careful if you are going to Banja Luka airport since it is around 30 minutes or 22.6 km far away from the bus station and it is situated in the city of Laktaši.

Tuzla is a city located in the northern part of the country. It is significant by the vicinity of the airport in the municipality of Živinice. The airport is around 13 km far away from Tuzla city but when travelling to Tuzla, the airport is located before the arrival at the Tuzla bus station. 

One of the most popular routes in terms of tourism is from Sarajevo to Srebrenica – Memorial centre which counts around 120.000 visits per year. Transportation to Srebrenica is not really easy thing to do since there is only one line operating from the company Centrotrans Eurolines.

Instead, we in Meet Bosnia Travel agency recommend you to book our Srebrenica tour, where you can have a flexible departure time, a faster and more comfortable ride and a fully guided tour where you can learn a lot of facts about what happened in Srebrenica – Srebrenica genocide or have lunch with a local family.
