What a great experience. We enjoyed a 4-hour private tour with Hidaja in Sarajevo and it was the best thing we did on our trip to the Balcans. We enjoyed not just good food an delicious local treats along the way but Hidaja went out of her way to keep us informed about local history and food traditions. We specially enjoyed visiting artisans making things traditionally, this is not a touristy tour but a door to all the good things Sarajevo has to offer. Thank you Meet Bosnia & Hidaja for this amazing experience
Lots of different tastings

Still went ahead despite it just being myself, which was great! Food tours aren’t very popular in the region for some reason. Kiki was very informative and did a brilliant job. I’ve done many food tours and this was one of the best!
A very good experience...

Must-see visit to discover the life of Sarajevo’s craftsmen and traders

Visit of many craftsmen of the old city of Sarajevo , carried out by Armina, a person with a great heart and passion for his country and his city. The tour lasted four hours, and it was a very small group of two people, and it was in English, Armina speaks other languages like French. Many local craftsmen and traders were visited, and many dishes, cheeses, meat drinks, desserts, drinks and other local dishes were tasted. There were also many explanations about the history of the city, the post-war geopolitical situation and the current life of the merchants who decided to stay in Sarajevo despite the attractiveness of an easier life elsewhere. Other topics were also discussed , and we had plenty of advice on important things to do in Sarajevo , such as visiting some museums about the war , or visiting some places nearby that are beautiful to see. It was also discovered the difficulty of these artisans who have to compete with foreign traders who import non-local products to offer very low prices (such as food stores that import fruits from all over the world right next to local markets that have more expensive but better products from Bosnia and Herzegovina) I did this tour on the last day, I think it's better to do it at the very beginning of the trip to know precisely all these local traders and the different types of food to test. Many thanks to Armina for this wonderful time spent with her.

One of the best food tours we have taken! Hannan was terrific. She is very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. My husband and I were the only ones on the tour and we got a chance to really learn about the culture, traditions, food and crafts of Sarajevo. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommend.
Stuffed!

Great tour! Our tour guide Hanan was excellent. We’ve taken many tours over the years and she is the best! The craftsmen and women presented their crafts in an interesting and engaging manner. Best of all the food was delicious and Hanan did an excellent job of describing each dish and how it was prepared. Pro tip: don’t eat breakfast on the day of the tour. We’ll do this one again next time we are in Sarajevo!!!
