Even if you have a taximeter in your vehicle, you better talk about the price with the driver in advance. If you want to go to a different city, you can go to one of the two big bus stations and reach another city in the country as well as neighboring countries such as Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, and Montenegro by bus.
The train is another alternative that will take you to Sarajevo, the capital city of the country, or Zagreb. However, it cannot be said that the train service is very comfortable or fast, compared to the surrounding countries, due to the old rail system and wagons. The railway station and bus terminal are 2 kilometers southeast from the city center.
Like many Banja Luka visitors, if you want to go to the capital city of the country by bus while you are there, you can reach the city with a journey of about 5 hours. There are 4 bus services to Sarajevo every day. The other method which is less comfortable is to go by train. There is a train service twice a day. Of course you can rent a car for a much freer and comfortable trip, and you will be able to enjoy the natural beauties spread throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina throughout the journey.
