July 4, 2020 - Popular one-day bus excursions from Mostar to the Adriatic in Croatia have been suspended until further notice for citizens of Bosnia & Herzegovina.
One-day excursions that would fill buses with Bosnian citizens from Mostar to the shores of the Adriatic Sea on the first weekend in July have unfortunately been suspended this year, writes Klix.ba.
The Autoprevoz-Bus Mostar agency says that they have many inquiries regarding the organization of one-day trips to Croatia.
"We addressed the Ministry of the Interior of the Republic of Croatia and received a written answer stating that BiH citizens cannot cross the Croatian border for one-day trips until further notice," said the Mostar-based Autoprevoz-Bus Mostar agency.
The Ministry of the Interior of the Republic of Croatia clarified that they are allowed to stay only if they spend at least one overnight in Croatia, with proof of payment of a tourist arrangement in a travel agency or hotel, or voucher.
"We hope that in the next seven days, if the measures are relaxed, the Republic of Croatia will reconsider the decision to open the borders for Bosnian citizens, so that we can immediately start with one-day trips that we have been doing for many years," the agency said.
Until then, they are organizing one-day trips within BiH, including visits to interesting places such as Buško and Boračko lakes and Neum, the only BiH town on the Adriatic coast.
