Airport transfers in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Bosnia and Herzegovina is a mountainous country with slow roads and few train links, so a pre-booked private transfer is often the most comfortable way to reach your hotel, a ski resort or a pilgrimage site. Local companies publish fixed prices per vehicle, usually in euro or convertible marks (KM, about 1.96 KM to €1).
Main airports and destinations
- Sarajevo Airport (SJJ) – the main international airport, for Sarajevo and the Jahorina ski resort
- Tuzla Airport (TZL) – a low-cost hub with many Wizz Air flights
- Mostar Airport (OMO) – seasonal flights for Mostar and Medjugorje
- Banja Luka Airport (BNX) – for Banja Luka and the north-west
Typical transfer prices
Sarajevo Airport to the city centre costs about €20–25, Sarajevo Airport to Jahorina about €45–55 and Tuzla Airport to Tuzla about 30 KM. Long rides cost more: Sarajevo to Mostar about €125–160 and Mostar to Dubrovnik or Split about €210–220.
Cross-border transfers
Many visitors arrive from the Croatian coast through Dubrovnik Airport or Split Airport and visit Mostar on the way, or continue to Montenegro and Serbia. Bosnia is not in the EU, so expect a passport check at the border. Some companies offer stopover transfers with time to see Mostar’s Old Bridge, Počitelj or the Kravice waterfalls.
Booking tips
Prices are per vehicle, not per person. Give your flight number for tracking, ask for child seats in advance and check if the driver accepts cards, since many smaller operators prefer cash.
