For the next leg of our travels we got a bus from Mostar to Sarajevo. This is a journey of 123 kms (67 miles) that takes around 2 hours and 45 minutes.
The bus that we got from Mostar to Sarajevo was very modern and the whole journey was very comfortable. The temperature inside the bus was perfect, being neither hot nor cold. We paid 20 BAM ($11) each for the tickets and 1 BAM ($0.55) for each piece of luggage that went into the hold.
This part of the world seems to be all mountains, so the views from all our bus journeys have been very good. It’s spring right now, so the trees are coming back to life, as you can see in the image above.
This is a very typical view from our bus journey. Much of the time we traveled next to expanses of water like the one above.
We stopped at a small town about half way, where the driver and a few people got off for a break of around 5-10 minutes. The bus also stopped at many places along the way, with many passengers getting on and off. Often the passengers would just shout from the back asking the diver to stop at a quiet village.
Sarajevo bus station is around 6 kms from the old town city center.
