Campervan Rentals in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Campervans are one of the best ways to explore Bosnia and Herzegovina. They are compact, easy to drive, and give you the freedom to stop at camps by rivers, lakes, and mountains. With a campervan, you can move from Sarajevo to Mostar, then up to Una National Park, without worrying about hotel bookings.
Why choose a campervan
Campervans are smaller than full motorhomes, which makes them easier to handle on Bosnia’s winding roads. They fit into standard parking spaces and use less fuel. Inside you will usually find a bed for two to four people, a small kitchen, and sometimes a shower or toilet. Campervans are perfect for couples, friends, or small families who want flexibility and comfort.
Where to rent campervans
Sarajevo
The capital is the main hub for campervan rentals, with several operators offering modern vans. Delivery to the airport is common.
Mostar
A good option if you want to start in Herzegovina and explore riverside and lakeside camps.
Banja Luka
Useful for exploring Vrbas rafting camps, Kozara mountain, and the road north to Croatia.
Bihać
A smaller hub, but some operators deliver vans here for Una National Park trips.
When to rent
The main season is May to September. Vans book quickly in July and August, so reserve in advance. Spring and autumn are quieter and cooler, which makes them good for road trips. Winter rentals are possible but less common, as many camps close.
What to expect in campervans
Most campervans come with a double bed, small kitchen with stove and fridge, and storage. Some include a toilet and shower, others provide portable options. Bedding, cooking gear, and chairs are usually included. Insurance is part of the rental, but always check details. Prices typically range from 90–150 BAM (about 45–75 EUR) per day depending on season, model, and equipment.
Driving tips
Roads in Bosnia are mostly two lane, with curves and occasional narrow sections. Campervans handle this better than larger motorhomes. Always carry cash for fuel and tolls. Use winter tyres from 15 November to 15 April. When parking in towns, look for official camperparks near Sarajevo, Mostar, and Banja Luka rather than side streets.
Local flavour
Travelling by campervan in Bosnia means freedom. You can stop for coffee at a roadside kafana, pull over to buy fresh cheese or honey, and arrive at a riverside camp in time for a swim. Many camp hosts welcome campervans and often share local food and stories.
