5.00My friend & I joined this tour to see more of Bosnia Herzegovina & Serbia, it really delivered. Our guide Hamza was really knowledgeable & shared some interesting insights. The key highlights for us were the train journey & the short hike to the lookout point.

Outstanding excursion to Eastern Bosnia and Western Serbia

5.00The tour was outstanding. Unfortunately, due to the wintry weather conditions that were still present a few days earlier, we could not get to the lookout point for safety reasons, which was of course a great shame but understandable. Certainly the late spring/summer/autumn is a little better suited for the excursion. Nevertheless, well thought out tour that I highly recommend. My highlight was the train ride overlooking the beautiful Serbian countryside.
Wonderful experience and service

5.00Tarik was excellent with knowledge about Bosnian history and culture, and offer brilliant service. I was really lucky as I was the only customer that day in winter season even though some of the programme isn’t open but Tarik was quite flexible and accommodating, it was a great experience in Bosnia. Definitely recommend.
Highly recommend for history enthusiasts

5.00Superb. Our guide, Robert, was incredibly knowledgeable and its clear that he is enthusiastic a out his subject. He gave us an incredible overview of the history of the region including religion, flora, fauna, geology, and politics. He is easy to get along with and could answer all of our questions. The views along the way are spectacular and we're worth the price alon. Would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to take in the beautiful nature outside sarajevo while getting a great overview of this beautiful country.
Lovely experience in autumn weather

5.00This was a great tour. There were two of us and just one other person so it felt like a private tour. It was a very long day with an early start and late finish so it was really important it was very well organised - which it was. I was impressed there was a very good and safe driver - Benjamin - as well as the Hamza the guide which I think was necessary because of the length of the day and the amount of driving. They both looked after us very well and considerately. The tour takes you to some beautiful and fascinating places. I think anywhere else in Europe you would be jostling crowds as you saw sights like these - but we usually had them to ourselves. Walking across the the bridge over the Drina at Visegrad and then catching a little boat with a local fisherman at the end off the rickety jetty felt very special. The Dobrun Monastery was stunningly beautiful. Crossing over into Western Serbia and catching a little train and the short walk to the spectacular viewpoint in the Tara national park were also great. However, I think what made the trip most special was just seeing and understanding a bit more about the places we passed through and being with local people as they had a day out or went about their day to day lives
