What To Expect
Latin Bridge
The bridge took its name from the neighborhood on the left bank of the Miljacka, where Sarajevo’s Catholics resided. From 1918 to 1993 the structure bore the name, Principov Most (bridge), after Gavrilo Princip, who was only a few meters from this bridge when he assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sofie. This incident, known as the Sarajevo Assassination, led to the beginning of the First World War.
Emperor's Mosque
The Emperor’s Mosque is Sarajevo’s oldest mosque and one of the oldest in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is presumed that Isa Bey Ishaković, the founder of Sarajevo, had this place of worship built soon after the city’s founding in 1462 in honor of Sultan Mehmed II “the Conqueror”.

5.00very pleasant climb by cable car .on arriving up there, we have the choice of several hikes, including the one to see the old track of Bobsleigh . but we can simply wait for sunset for a very pleasant moment. The view is sublime, the descent by cable car when night falls, shows us Sarajevo with all these lights . not to be missed during a visit to the capital.
Enjoyable trip to the top of the mountain

5.00Very enjoyable ride to the top of the mountain. Comfortable and safe cars. The signage at the top wasn't brilliant - we managed to more-or-less work out our routs around the walking paths, but a fair amount of guesswork was involved because the signage petered out. Toilets had no toilet seats. There appeared to be no staff helping people on and off the cars at the top - all fine until someone has a problem. Generally a good experience and worth the money but one feels a little more investment in the tourism infrastructure would encourage more people. We did enjoy seeing the disused bob sleigh track.
Excellent tour with some beautiful views

Cable car ride to save walking up the mountain.

5.00Nice 10 mins trip to the top of the mountain for good views of the city below. Cafe with terrace for views was reasonably priced. Small information board inside the cable car terminal with some background reading of wildlife living in the mountains. Hiking trails available. Probably the most expensive attraction in Sarajevo but worth it.
A good amount of walking...

5.00A good amount of walking is to be expected, much of it on hills. Basically this is a tour to up to the mountain of the bobsled track of the Sarajevo Olympics. One can do this on their own if they wanted and there are plenty of hiking trails. The museum is about a 30 minute walk from the bottom of the hill and is nothing overly special.
Glorious views

4.00Fantastic and very picturesque cable car trip , spectacular views of the city on a glorious day. At the top a rustic olympic sign , didn't impress on fellow American tourist...it's 40 years old you fool. The map at the top was slightly complicated. Really enjoyed the walk down the bobsleigh track and further down 2 young lads selling quite awful lemonade made me chuckle. All in all ... Very worthwhile and enjoyable excursion.
Guide was amazing

5.00Well worth the moderate price. I really enjoyed the cable car ride and the bobsled track was super interesting. Just remember: The further you walk down the bobsled track, the tougher your walk back up will be...
