BOSNIA IN JULY road trip travel vlog (How we spent THE BEST 3 DAYS IN SARAJEVO AND MOSTAR)

We spend 3 days exploring THE BEST OF BOSNIA! We start our BOSNIAN ROAD TRIP with stops at Kravice Waterfalls and Pocitelj before heading to Sarajevo. We take walking tours through Sarajevo and try some DELICIOUS BOSNIAN FOOD. Our adventure continues in Mostar where we explore the beautiful old town of Mostar. 

On this episode of Mapping It, we spend three days road tripping around Bosnia. Our first day is spent driving from Split, in Croatia, to Sarajevo, in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Our first stop on the five hour drive is Kravice Waterfalls - a very scenic massive waterfall that you can swim at! After getting jealous at everyone swimming (because we didn’t know you could swim there, so we were unprepared), we head to the riverside town of Pocitelj.

Pocitelj was brutally destroyed during the civil war in the 1990s and then carefully rebuilt. It’s now a great example of Ottoman architecture.

We wrap up our time exploring the Bosnian countryside with a delicious meal of spit-roasted lamb at Restoran Kovacevic Jablanica.

We finally make it to Sarajevo at the end of the first day of our EPIC BOSNIAN ROAD TRIP. We have 24 hours to explore the city so we decide to join two SARAJEVO WALKING TOURS to learn more about the history of Sarajevo.

In between tours, we walk through the old town and have some incredible food! We try Cevapi and Burek and instantly fall in love with the delicious flavors of Bosnia and Herzegovina!

With our time in Sarajevo coming to a close, we head over to Mostar to explore this beautiful city in Bosnia and Herzegovina! We enjoy some delicious meals, including an epic meat platter with Cevapi! We visit some iconic spots in Mostar including Stari Most, the historic old bridge, and a beautiful mosque. We make a detour to explore Blagaj and the old Turkish monastery that’s tucked into a cave. We also stop at a Bosnian grocery store and pick up some tasty snacks. Join us as we explore Mostar!

We hope you enjoy coming along on our adventures!

We're Karin and Jeremy! Just an average couple with a love for travel. We work full-time jobs that only offer limited vacation time, so we work hard to get the most out of our holidays. Join us on our adventures as we maximize our time off on Mapping It.
