5.00I did the fall of Yugoslavia with Eyub. The tour was very informative and useful to understand fully what happened. Eyub also tells you about the city how it is today always referencing to history. I loved it ! I also loved that the tour bus was comfortable and high quality ! I will recommend that tour and every tour form Meet Bosnia !

5.00Our guide Ejub was a wealth of knowledge. He drove us all over Sarajevo to all the sites, but more importantly, explained the history as well as the nuances of nationality, ethnicity, religion, etc. Highly, highly recommended tour!!!

5.00Really excellent trip. Very informative and all was planned excellently. Would highly recommend. My guide - Ago was excellent. It was so poignant hearing experiences from someone who has lived through the harrowing times. I would also like to give a shout out to Ahmed. I did the free walking tour with him and he was also excellent.
An excellent tour

5.00Fascinating and very informative tour with an excellent guide, Tarik, who gave us a much better understanding of a very complex subject, and brought it to life with stories of how his own family were involved in the seige of Sarajevo. Would highly recommend.

5.00This is a very well run company. We did a free walking tour with Armina. She provided an excellent historical overview of the country and explained how it is run now and the challenges it is facing. In addition, we did a Fall of Yugoslavia tour with Enes. As a native Bosnian who left the country during the war, it was very important to me to have my husband and children visit Bosnia and understand the war and get some context. Enes did a wonderful job covering all the events that led up to the war as well as paint the picture of horrible things that occurred during the war. He answered numerous questions we had and was very friendly and approachable. His English was excellent and he was easy to understand. Highly recommend this company and especially this tour.
An excellent and thought provoking experience

5.00This tour was excellent. Ago was a great tour guide who struck a good balance between sharing his personal story and views with giving a chronological account of events. We took our 2 children, aged nearly 12 and nearly 15 and they said it kept their attention and interest for the full for hours. Although some of the content was hard for them to hear, I think they got a lot out of it and the information shared was ok for their age and maturity. I would be cautious about taking younger children though. Overall an excellent and very thought provoking experience that we'll remember for a long time.
Much valuable information, a lot of room for questions

5.00The tour did bring a lot of important insights also due to our guide Ago who answered every questions about past and present politics in Bosnia and also shared a lot of personal stories with regard to the siege in Sarajevo. I would recommend the tour to anyone who wants to understand the destructive nature of ethnonationalism and also appreciates a great overview - very litterally- from the yellow fort and the old bob-sleigh up in the mountains where the Serbs besieged the city for four years)
Great tour to help understand Sarajevo and Bosnia as a whole

5.00The fall of yugoslavia tour is a must see if you want to better understand the history of Bosnia and Sarajevo. The tour is 4 hours long and takes you to some of the most important places during the siege of Sarajevo. Our guide Ago told us in as simple language as possible the history and present situation of Bosnia-Herzegovina. He also added a touch of his personal expierences and opinion during the tour, which really added to the understanding of the siege and war and the country in general. Overall I had a great expierience with an excellent guide and would recommend this tour for anyone visiting Sarajevo!
