The Yes.ba Difference: Why Choose Our Sarajevo Car Hire
Don’t settle for a faceless global brand. We’re a locally‑owned Bosnian company, not a franchise. We offer a personal touch and honest service that large corporations can’t match.
| Sa Yes.ba (Vaši lokalni stručnjaci) | Sa velikim internacionalnim brendovima |
|---|---|
| Sve uključeno i transparentno – cijena koju vidite online pokriva obavezno osiguranje (CDW), poreze i aerodromske takse. Plaćate tačno onoliko koliko piše. | Početna cijena koja na prvi pogled izgleda povoljno, ali se na šalteru uvećava skrivenim “aerodromskim taksama”, “naknadama za registraciju vozila” i sličnim troškovima. |
| Direktna podrška – ako vam zatreba pomoć, direktno pričate s našim lokalnim timom u Sarajevu, a ne s call centrom na drugom kraju svijeta. | Anoniman broj iz inostranstva koji vodi do dugog čekanja i frustrirajućih automatizovanih sistema. |
| Lični doček na aerodromu – Naš ljubazan agent dočekat će vas na izlazu s natpisom s vašim imenom i odvesti vas direktno do auta. Bez čekanja, bez stresa. | Dugi redovi na šalterima za iznajmljivanje, često praćeni zbunjujućom potragom za automobilom na velikom parkingu. |
| Pravo lokalno znanje – Pitajte nas za najbolju rutu do Bjelašnice, gdje možete sigurno parkirati na Baščaršiji ili gdje su najbolji ćevapi. Mi ovdje živimo i rado ćemo vam pomoći. | Osoblje koje često ne poznaje lokalne puteve, uslove vožnje ili ne može ponuditi prave savjete za putovanje. |
| Bez forsiranja dodatnih troškova – dajemo vam ključeve, kratko objašnjenje o vozilu i spremni ste za vožnju. To je sve. | Agresivno nuđenje skupih i nepotrebnih osiguranja te dodatnih usluga koje vam zapravo ne trebaju. |

No filters. No fluff. Just real feedback from real drivers across Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Klaus Schmidt
Everything was perfect and efficient. Car was a new model, very clean. Airport pickup was direct at the gate. No waiting. Return was fast. A very professional German-style service. I would use them again.
Elena Vasić
I was a bit nervous about renting a car for our family trip and driving to Croatia, but the team at Yes.ba made it so easy. They had the child seat we requested already installed and all the cross-border papers were in a folder waiting for us. It gave me such peace of mind. Thank you for taking care of the details!
David Wilson
The good: The Škoda Octavia I rented was excellent for my business meetings and the price was very transparent, which I appreciate. The meet-and-greet at the airport is a great concept. The not-so-good: Had to wait about 15 minutes for the agent at pickup, which was a bit of a slow start when on a tight schedule. Overall: A solid 4-star service. I would likely use them again, but would call ahead to confirm the agent is waiting.
Zofia Kowalska
OMG the Duster we rented was an absolute beast!! We took it on some pretty rough backroads exploring near Lukomir and it handled everything like a champ. So much fun!! If you're looking to actually EXPLORE Bosnia, get a car from these guys. Super friendly staff too. 🙂
Marcus Lindström
No problems at all. Good car, fair price. Exactly what you want.
Amira Hadžić
As someone from Sarajevo, I always try to support local businesses, and I'm so glad I chose Yes.ba. The whole experience felt different – more respectful and personal. The young man who brought the car was so polite and helpful. It makes me proud to see a Bosnian company doing things the right way. Keep up the great work.
