Follow the emerald Neretva River north through one of Europe's most dramatic mountain valleys. From Mostar's Ottoman elegance to Sarajevo's cosmopolitan energy—two hours of scenery with no border crossings and no bus schedules to worry about.
Drive from Mostar to Sarajevo in approximately 2h 20m. Private transfer from €100 per vehicle, all-inclusive — fuel, tolls, English-speaking driver, door-to-door.
Pickup from anywhere in Mostar—Old Town, Bulevar, Musala Square, Spanish Square, or the bus station. Head north along the M17 highway, following the turquoise Neretva River through its limestone gorge.
A small mountain town famous for its WWII history. The demolished railway bridge from the Battle of the Neretva (immortalised in the 1969 film) still lies in the gorge below. Also home to Jablanica Lake and some of the best ćevapi (grilled meat) in Bosnia—a perfect coffee or lunch stop.
Another beautiful Ottoman bridge town straddling the Neretva. The 16th-century Old Bridge is smaller than Mostar's Stari Most but equally photogenic. Konjic is also the gateway to the Neretva's famous whitewater rafting and the Cold War-era Tito's Bunker (D-0 ARK).
The route climbs over Ivan Sedlo (967m), the mountain pass separating Herzegovina from central Bosnia. On clear days the panoramic views are spectacular. The modern tunnel bypasses the worst of the mountain road, making this a smooth crossing even in winter.
Arrive at your accommodation in Sarajevo. Drop-off anywhere in the city—Baščaršija, the Old Town, Ferhadija, Marijin Dvor, Ilidža, or Sarajevo International Airport (SJJ). Your driver navigates Sarajevo's one-way streets so you don't have to.
Per vehicle, not per person. No border crossings on this route. Includes fuel, luggage handling, water, Wi-Fi, and child seats on request.

Book Sarajevo → Mostar →The road from Mostar to Sarajevo is one of Europe's most underrated drives. It follows the Neretva River through a deep gorge carved into the Dinaric Alps, passing Jablanica (site of the famous WWII bridge battle) and Konjic (where Tito's secret nuclear bunker, now an art gallery, is hidden inside a mountain). The landscape shifts from Mediterranean Herzegovina to alpine Bosnia in just two hours.
Everything specific to this route.
Approximately 2 hours 20 minutes (130 km). No border crossings on this route since both cities are in Bosnia & Herzegovina. With a stop at Jablanica or Konjic, add 20–25 minutes.
Yes, buses run several times daily and take 2.5–3 hours. However, they don't stop at scenic points, drop you at the bus station (not your hotel), and you'll need to manage luggage. A private transfer is door-to-door with flexibility to stop where you like.
Yes. The Ivan Sedlo tunnel and modern highway are well-maintained year-round. In heavy snow, our drivers have winter tyres and know the road conditions. We wouldn't drive if it weren't safe.
The D-0 ARK bunker requires a pre-booked tour and is about 30 minutes off the main route. If you've arranged a visit, we can absolutely factor it into the journey. Let us know when booking so we can plan the timing.
Yes. Sarajevo Airport (SJJ) is actually on the approach to the city from the south, so it's right on the route from Mostar. Same price. We drop you at departures with time to spare.
Morning departures give you the best light through the Neretva Valley. For a Sarajevo hotel check-in: leave any time. For an afternoon flight from SJJ: leave by 11 AM. We operate 24/7.
"The drive through the Neretva Valley was one of the highlights of our trip. Driver stopped at Jablanica for a coffee and we learned about the WWII bridge. Arrived in Sarajevo's Old Town door-to-door."
"So much better than the bus. We stopped at Konjic, saw the Ottoman bridge, and the driver told us stories about every village along the way. A local experience you can't get any other way."
"We needed to catch a flight from Sarajevo. Driver picked us up at 6am, got us to SJJ by 8:30. No stress, no borders. The mountain pass views at sunrise were a bonus."
