DR
Danilo RThe bus ride was okay. Nothing really special. The AC worked throughout the whole trip. Be prepared to pay 1-2 euros extra to place your luggage on hold. Also, ALWAYS print your e-ticket

Evgeniia We were put in a van, instead of a bus that we had paid for. It was not very comfortable and extremely (!) hot in the back of the van. The AC was working poorly and the heat (!) was on while it was 30 degrees outside

Anonymous Bus OK, but luggage is paid extra and no wifi. Luggage paid extra, it's ridiculous. And nowadays a bus without wifi is a low standard.

Anonymous My travel from Mostar to Budva. The driver was relatively polite and tried to manage the difficult situation as best as he could. We traveled from Mostar to Budva on the 9:30 AM bus and arrived at 6:10 PM. The journey was quite difficult due to a lack of communication and organization from the travel company. Initially, we had to wait for another bus, and 40 minutes into the journey, that bus broke down. We then had to wait for 90 minutes for bus to get fixed. When we finally switched buses, there were not enough seats for all passengers. We arrived in Budva 2.5 hours later than scheduled.

Anonymous The bus was wonderful and trip was comfortable but the driver was so rude. The driver was so rude. In Trebinje station, we get in bus a little bit early. The bus wasn't locked just the door was closed. So we just opened and get in. We didn't know it was forbidden or so. Because no one said sth like that. A minute later, the driver came and scolded us as if we are his children. He could just say that it is forbidden and don't do that again. But noooo! He yelled and lashed and ruined our trip. Even if we said we are sorry and there was no warnings. If there is a mistake we made it's okay we can accept this. But there is nothing to justify his behaviour.

Travelling by bus essentials
- If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
- VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
- Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
- If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
- Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
- To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
- As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
- Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
- If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
