Dubrovnik to Bosnia

Hi All







I%26#39;m planning a trip to Croatia this summer which includes several days in Dubrovnik. Since the border with Bosnia is so close, we thought we could include a day trip there. What is there to see around in that region and does anyone have an idea of how long it takes, info about border crossing (we are both American) and know if there are buses or trains that are in the area?











Thanks!

We went from Dubrovnik to Mostar in Bosnia--- get there if at all possible. I think you can take an organized bus trip there, maybe someone can give you details on it. We had a car and drove there with a stop at Medugorje on the way there. On the way back we stopped at a neat little place called Pocitelj along the Neretva River. Absolutely beautiful!!!

Hello! I am planning a trip to Croatia and just discovered Bosnia! It sounds like you enjoyed it! How was driving in Bosnia? It doesn%26#39;t sound like you had any troubles.

No problems at all. The roads are good and other than sometimes driving along mountainous roads (with guardrails) it is a great way to get around.




|||



Did you visit any of the islands? There are so many...I don%26#39;t know which ones to visit! Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

I absolutely agree with %26quot;barrymanilow%26quot; that you must stop at Pocitelj since it is along the way to Mostar anyways. It%26#39;s a beautiful little old city. If you have the time (and energy) you may climb all the way up to this old stone tower and get a beautiful view...otherwise there is an outdoor cafe there that is inexpensive and has a nice ambiance to it.





You should also look into visiting Kravice which is a waterfall (google it for pictures)...you may also take a swim there. Struge is also not too far but it%26#39;s harder to navigate through it and find the best waterfalls it has to offer.

Definitely go to Mostar with possible stop in Pocitelj (maybe in Kravice but it could be too much in one day). No problem at all at the border. Enjoy!!

Hi!





If you are on the way to Mostar and want to relax a little and find some nice restaurants, you can stop in Blagaj. You also can visit the Tekija and the source of the Buna there.





We were in Bosnia last year and yes, driving is no problem at all.
