Currency: The official currency is the Bosnian Convertible Mark (BAM or KM). It has a fixed exchange rate with the euro (1 EUR = 1.95583 BAM). Euros are accepted in many tourist places, but it is advisable to use the local currency to get better prices.

Internal Transportation: The bus network is the most efficient and widespread way to travel between cities. Trains are less frequent but can be very scenic, such as the route from Sarajevo to Mostar. Renting a car gives more flexibility to explore rural areas.

Language: The official languages ​​are Bosnian, Serbian and Croatian, which are mutually intelligible. In tourist areas, especially among young people, it is common to find people who speak English. German is also relatively widely spoken.

Tips: Tipping is not mandatory, but is appreciated for good service. In restaurants, it is common to round up the bill or leave 10%. For tour guides and taxi drivers, it is also a welcome gesture.
