Pre-arrange a transfer when you want a confirmed pickup request, child seat, larger vehicle or help with several bags.
Plan the arrival before landing
Sarajevo Airport to the city centre
The simplest arrival depends on landing time, group size, luggage and where you are staying. A pre-arranged transfer gives a confirmed pickup request; taxis, current public transport and car rental remain alternatives. Verify live timetables and airport instructions with the official operators.
Plan at a glance
Sarajevo Taxi vehicles serving the airport rank accept card payments according to the airport’s 3 July 2026 announcement.
Check the airport’s own bus page on the day you travel because stops, timetables, tickets and luggage rules can change.

Pre-arranged airport transfer
This is the most predictable door-to-door choice for a family, group, late arrival, child seat request or several bags. Send the flight, destination and passenger details first. Sarajevo Visit & Go treats this as a request: the vehicle, pickup point, availability and final quote are confirmed before travel.
Official taxi from Sarajevo Airport
Use an authorized, clearly marked taxi at the official rank. Sarajevo Airport announced on 3 July 2026 that Sarajevo Taxi vehicles operating from the airport rank accept card payments and that Sarajevo Taxi can be ordered through mojTaxi. Confirm the meter or fare process before leaving and use the linked airport notice for the current instructions.
Airport bus and current public transport
The airport publishes current bus information linking the terminal with central Sarajevo. This can suit a solo traveler or light luggage when the timetable matches the flight. Do not rely on a copied timetable or old fare: open the official bus source below on your travel date.
Rental car
A rental car makes sense when the airport starts a wider Bosnia road trip or mountain stay. It is usually unnecessary for an Old Town-only visit, where walking, public transport and taxi avoid central parking.
