What To Expect
Once you book the trip, we will be in touch in order to arrange all the details. We will pick you up in your accommodation, or wherever you say, and then take you to the place where the trip starts. River Vrbas is mountain river, so if the day is nice and warm, it will be quite cooling to ride on dayak boat. If you want you can even swim in the river to cool down, and then we will continue our ride. Vrbas is called "Banja Luka's beauty" because of her indescribable color, nature and water world. What is a gondola in Venice, that is a dayak in Banja Luka. Enjoy a unique ride through Vrbas on this authentic and traditional boat, which over the centuries has become a symbol of the city, leaving a mark on the culture of the people of Banja Luka Mostly tourists ask us if they need any experience, and the answer is - NO. :) Just sit and enjoy!

Boating on the river

5.00We were picked up at the hotel, went boating on the river. A lot of fun! Afterwards we were dropped off at our hotel. Super fun experience, sailing with the Dayak is only possible here in Banja Luka. Still took about 45 min. Highly recommended!

4.00The view was beautiful. It's a good activity for relaxing. The guide did not speak English (only a few words). Maybe a little expensive but I didn't regret doing it.

5.00An incredible trip on a Dayak along the Vrbas river with an excellent, friendly, English speaking guide. We were picked up from our accommodation and provided with a glass of wine each for the journey. Our guide gave us options for where to stop along the river and took us to some of the best locations for swimming/paddling in the river and viewing the spectacular scenery. We loved it so much we ended up spending the rest of the day at one of the beaches. A wonderful part of any stay in Banja Luka.
Amazing Rafting Tour! A Must when in Bosnia!

5.00We (8 friends from Austria) booked a rafting tour at river Vrbas (starting from Banja Luka) with Good Host in June 2023. It was an amazing experience! Everything was arranged for us. We were picked up from our stay. Then we were brought to the starting point of the rafting tour. The skipper and driver were super cool and spoke very good English. The skipper is very experienced and we felt really safe during the rafting tour. We got helmets and life jackets too. After the tour, we stopped at a picturesque (Eko kud) restaurant at the river Vrbas, where we had homemade cevapi, sausages and typical Balkan bread rolls (lepinje). Since there were two vegetarians in our group, they also made extra veggie food for us. It was so delicious!!! 10/10 experience
