Practical tips

Bring a passport for Bosnia

For Mostar and Blagaj you'll need a passport or ID card and a green card for the car. Queues at the border are shortest before 8am.

Book ferries ahead

Car spots sell out in high season. Travelling on foot only? Then arriving half an hour early is enough.

Go to Biokovo early

The park has limited capacity and there's an entry fee. It's often full by nine — and fog can roll in up top by noon.
