Packing Tips

When packing for a trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina, it’s important to consider the time of year you’ll be traveling and the activities you’ll be doing. Here are some general tips to keep in mind:

  1. Check the weather: Bosnia and Herzegovina has a continental climate, with hot summers and cold winters. Be sure to check the weather forecast before you pack to ensure that you bring appropriate clothing.
  2. Dress modestly: Bosnia and Herzegovina is a conservative country, so it’s important to dress modestly, especially if you plan to visit religious sites. Avoid wearing shorts or revealing clothing, and bring a scarf or shawl to cover your shoulders if needed.
  3. Comfortable walking shoes: There are many historic sites, markets, and outdoor activities to explore in Bosnia and Herzegovina, so be sure to bring comfortable walking shoes.
  4. Swimwear: If you’re visiting Bosnia and Herzegovina in the summer, be sure to pack swimwear for the beaches along the Adriatic coast or for swimming in the rivers and lakes.
  5. Travel adapter: Bosnia and Herzegovina uses the European two-pin plug, so be sure to bring a travel adapter if your electronics use a different type of plug.
  6. Cash and credit cards: While many places in Bosnia and Herzegovina accept credit cards, it’s always a good idea to have cash on hand, especially when visiting smaller towns or markets.
  7. Backpack or daypack: Bring a lightweight backpack or daypack to carry your essentials while exploring the cities or hiking in the countryside.
  8. Travel documents: Be sure to bring your passport, travel insurance, and any necessary visas or permits.

Remember to pack light and only bring what you need. You can always buy toiletries, sunscreen, and other necessities once you arrive in Bosnia & Herzegovina.
