Top tips for hiring a car in Bosnia and Herzegovina

  • Renting a car in Bosnia and Herzegovina can be the most efficient way to get around if you’ll be exploring the off-the-beaten-track areas of the country. Buses between cities are available, but access to attractions outside of the city can be complicated. Getting to destinations like the Kravice Waterfalls might require several bus transfers, as well as a handful of lengthy trips on foot.
  • Because Bosnia and Herzegovina is bordered by countries with popular attractions, including Croatia and Montenegro, there is a high likelihood that you’ll want to cross a border or two during your time in the country. For hassle-free border crossings, check with your rental car company that your car has the proper insurance for border crossings to the EU, and keep all documentation with you at all times.
  • From November 15 to April 15, your car is legally required to have winter tires, which can be added onto your rental reservation with companies like Sixt and Europcar. Failing to ensure that your rental car is equipped with winter tires with at least 4mm of tread can come with a hefty fine, so make sure that you check that this requirement is covered by your rental car provider before you drive off the lot.
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina is an extremely mountainous country with rugged areas that often have narrow roads leading up steep mountain passes. An important thing to remember when driving up or coming back down these mountain passes is that the driver coming up the hill has the right of way. Sheep crossings are also common on roads outside of larger cities, so it pays to exercise caution in less-populated areas.
