WELCOME TO SARAJEVO

Haris Youth Hostel is one of Sarajevo's top-rated hostels, and enjoys a reputation of fun and professionalism which is rapidly becoming known throughout the region.

Despite having to climb a hill to get there, guests will be impressed by the spectacular view of the city that the height provides from the hostel terrace. To add to the Oriental atmosphere of the city, the call to prayer can be heard emanating from the area's many mosques.

The hostel is located about 10 minutes' walk from Bascarsija (Sarajevo's historic centre) in Vratnik, the oldest residential part of the city. Vratnik was built during Ottoman times, and still has defensive walls and towers which are open to the public.

In addition to the scenic beauty viewed from its terrace, Haris Youth Hostel also offers several excursions and tours. The best known of these is Haris' Sarajevo City Tour, which takes in numerous sites of cultural and historic significance, many of which are inconvenient to reach by public transport.

We also offer day trips to areas of interest outside the city, including Lukomir (Bosnia's highest mountain village), the Srebrenica Memorial Centre, and Visoko, home to Bosnia's alleged pyramids. We are flexible in the tours we offer, and for groups of 5 or more we can design tours tailored to your specific needs.

For those guests in search of the city's nightlife, the hostel runs a regular program of traditional Bosnian barbecues throughout the Summer months. This gives you an opportunity to meet your fellow travellers in a relaxed and friendly environment, and allows you to take advantage of the low prices at the hostel bar. As the night continues, Haris takes any interested guests to explore the city's bars and nightclubs.

We look forward to welcoming you to Sarajevo, and will make sure you enjoy your stay with us!

Trams run approximately every 15 minutes between 5:30am and 11:30pm, with a reduced service on Sundays.

If you stand with your back to the road with the tram on it, we are in front of you, to the right of Konzum supermarket and Hod�ić butchers, and on the corner opposite the nearest mosque. There is a red, black and white sign above the window which reads 'Haris Youth Hostel'.

3.If you arrive outside office hours, you can take a taxi from just behind the tram stop, or bus No.52 (Bascarsija - Faletici) from the bus stop to the left of Konzum, next to the taxi stand. You can only buy your ticket from the driver, and it will cost 1.80KM.

4. Exit at the second stop (Mejdan). On your right you will see a supermarket called 'Mak'. Walk down the hill on the street 'Vratnik Mejdan' with the supermarket to your left.
