Belgrade to Sarajevo Destination Reviews

It’s a long distance bus in Serbia and Bosnia. Don’t expect fancy. It’s comfortable enough and it’s got a couple of bathroom breaks. You’ll need to buy a platform pass in Belgrade 200 dinars) and also pay 200 dinars for your luggage in the trunk. It’s a long trip, 7 hours, but you’ll arrive safely enough. The bus station in Sarajevo isn’t near the city center. I took a taxi and it was 50 bam with a lot of traffic).

In addition to the amount you paid online for the ticket, you will need to pay an extra 300 RSD at the entrance just to access the bus departure area. I also paid 200 RSD for my hand luggage. So, in total, you should expect to pay an additional 500 RSD on top of the ticket price. Please note that the luggage fee can only be paid in cash, so make sure you have some cash with you.

Everything was great except for the unexpected baggage fee when already used local currency. The new bus station charges 300 ron per person to enter bus area. Also did not realize it was a mini bus and was hard to find and almost missed it since it wasn't in international location but local buses and not listed on the computer board.

Okay bus but ripped off with extra charge. The bus itself was okay, no WiFi but there was air conditioning. There was a 200 Dinar / 2 Euro baggage charge which wasn't mentioned beforehand. And the driver didn't give me enough change, so I ended up paying 5 Euro for this.

Brza i ugodna vožnja. Udoban i čist autobus. Nisam vidjela utičnice za punjenje telefona. WiFi signal autobusa je bio nestabilan.

Off to Sarajevo. The driver was on time and professional! It was comfortable! He stopped enough times to use the washroom and grab a bite! Overall a good trip! Our driver was awesome. A little dirty.

What a messy driver. The driver didn't speak a word of English. That wouldn't be a big issue if it was a local bus, but that was a ride that crosses the serbian-bosnian border. He made us pay 360 dinar cash to put our luggage in the bus. He sounded very rude and loud; not having a care about our comfort. I know there are differences based on culture, but this guy didn't sound polite AT ALL. Another passenger who understood what he was saying told me that he wasn't nice for seemingly no reason. He drove very aggressively, even insulting another driver (even though it was the driver who did a bad maneuver, I saw it happen). He cut other drivers off multiple times and was often going way over the speed limit. I'm pretty sure he picked up a random man that paid him cash for the travel. This clearly is not the easiest ride for a bus driver, I get it, but there were no functioning security belts for us and the transmission had issues every now and then. I would never go back in this driver's bus.

Travelling by bus essentials

  • If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
  • VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
  • Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
  • If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
  • Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
  • To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
  • As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
  • Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
  • If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
