Ivan Sedlo mountain pass

50 km from Sarajevo ~45 min

The road climbs to 967 metres through dense forest before a dramatic descent into the Neretva valley. On clear days, the panorama from the pass stretches across central Bosnia.

Konjic & the Old Bridge

70 km from Sarajevo ~20 min

A charming river town straddling the Neretva, famous for its elegant Ottoman bridge and traditional woodcarving. Walk across the bridge for a photo, browse the artisan workshops, or just stretch your legs by the river. The town also hides Tito's secret Cold War bunker (book separately for a tour).

About the Sarajevo to Dubrovnik transfer

The Sarajevo to Dubrovnik route is a full-day journey through the best of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

It's one of the longest routes we offer, but with sightseeing stops it becomes one of the richest — covering alpine mountains, river gorges, Ottoman towns, and the Adriatic coast in a single day.
