Sarajevo Travel Forum

I'll be in Sarajevo from March-July 2008. I'd rather live close to the center of town. Any recommendations of neighborhoods or rental agencies? What is a reasonable monthly rent for a studio or 1 bedroom apartment? What should I avoid in the "lets make a deal" racket of renting short term?

Finally, what are recommendations for telephone service for calls to/from US?

Thanks for any help.

hi there,
I have friends there who study and they pay app. 60-70euros for a room in a 3room appartment...so I guess you could find a single room app. for about -125-150euros for sure...neighbourhood my frinds live in- grbavica, it is very close to the center of town and there are a lot of appartments because the college is there... good luck

its very expensive to call from Bosnia to overseas ,
your best bet is to use internet cafe and have an account with skype or voip buster.
have fun in Sarajevo and enjoy the cevapcici and burek
Cheers

Hi,

I will be relocating to Sarajevo in November 2007. I would like to know about the following:

1. Apartment - cost and services
2. Car dealer - want to but a car (brand new or used)
3. Electronics/Computer Shop - want to buy a LCD TV, laptop computer and a mobile phone (I want to know if it is much expensive than Singapore)
4. Hi-speed internet service - ADSL or cable internet
5. International TV Channels - how to get BBC, CNN, ESPN, Cinemax, HBO, Discovery, etc?
6. English Publications - daily, weekly, monthly newspapers/magazines
7. English radio/TV Programmes aired from Bosnia and Herzegovina

Thanks a lot.
