By air. The nearest airport is Mostar (OMO), about 25 km away, with few flights. Most pilgrims land in Split (SPU, about 155 km, roughly 2 hours on the motorway), Dubrovnik (DBV, about 145 km, roughly 2h 50m) or Sarajevo (SJJ, about 150 km). From Split and Dubrovnik the road crosses one border into Bosnia and Herzegovina; from Mostar and Sarajevo there is none.
There and back. Most guests need two journeys: the arrival and, a few days later, the drive back to the airport. Ask for both in one request; each journey is booked as its own transfer, and we time the return to your flight and to the border.
Pilgrim groups. Small groups travel in a minivan. Larger parish and agency groups travel in minibuses or coaches arranged with licensed local partners: send the group size, the flights and the hotels, and we confirm the vehicles in a written quote. A licensed local guide can be arranged separately; the driver drives and is not a guide. Group transfers →
Day trips. Mostar, the old town of Počitelj, the Kravica Waterfalls and Blagaj are all within an hour of Medjugorje. From Mostar there is a half-day trip to Medjugorje itself. Mostar to Medjugorje day trip → · Day trips from Mostar →
Good to know
Busy dates: the anniversary on 25 June and the youth festival (Mladifest, 27–31 July in 2027) fill the roads and the hotels. Request early for those weeks.
Crossing a border? Bosnia and Herzegovina is outside the EU and Schengen. Which document is accepted depends on nationality; check the current entry rules. Waiting times at the border vary with the season.
Groups: the parish asks pilgrim groups to announce themselves to its information office. We arrange transport only and are not connected with the parish.
