-Yes, there is the direct bus from the Adriatic coast to Sarajevo, but it goes back to Podgorica and then north – to Niksic… The ticket cost me 17 euro, and I boarded this bus at 7.20 am. We passed through Podgorica – the capital of Montenegro and started to climb the mountains. What a views on this route! There was a deep canyon of Piva river, a dam and the artificial mountain lake…
We reached the border check point at 12.30 pm. It is located in the real outback: the only road to Bosnia is via 3-m wide steel bridge on the Tara river. No tourist information on the Bosnian side… Stamp into the passport… No money exchange – in Bosnia & Herzegovina they use Bosnian Mark – 1 euro is worth 1,95 BAM.
Winding, bumpy and narrow road on the Bosnian side was descending into the valley… I understood why our bus was so short – the big ones are in trouble on this part of the route… We reached bus station in Sarajevo at 4 pm. 9 hours in the crampy little bus… I have enough for today!
