Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo Canton, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina

In the early afternoon, arrive in beautiful Sarajevo – Bosnia’s capital city that boasts village-like charm and rich history. Mosques built by the Ottoman Turks sit alongside buildings created by the Austro Hungarians, and the city is often referred to as a living history museum. Despite the relatively recent 1990s conflict, the city bears surprisingly few physical reminders of its war-torn past – a sign perhaps, of the city’s desire to move on and welcome visitors with open arms!

When you are ready, return to Dubrovnik and finish right back at your hotel.

Duration: 3 hours 30 minutes

Ivan was an absolute professional. His presentation background knowledge and ability to answer all our questions thoroughly was much appreciated. A safe competent driver. He also took the time to recommend and buy some local food for us in Sarajevp. A long day but well worth it with bonus time in Mostar. Well done Ivan credit to your profession”

This was such a pleasurable tour, so informative and wide ranging. We were really impressed with our Driver/Guide Ivan! He was extremely knowledgable on any subject, making sure we received a full breadth of history about the region. Discussing the food traditions, wine making, fruit growing, making sure we tasted the specialties in the area like Burek, Chevarpi and of course the war. We had free time to discover Sarajevo. All this in a comfortable car too. I would highly recommend this tour! It was excellent!”

Our driver was Ivan, and he was awesome. The vehicle was very nice, his driving was safe and efficient, but most importantly, he had a detailed knowledge of the region's geography and history.”

“

Our tour was amazing! It began with a great driver and a very knowledgeable guide in Dubrovnik. She was full of information/history of the entire area. When we got to Sarajevo we had a different guide show us around the city, he too was amazing. I would highly recommend this tour. He selected the perfect place for lunch which we saw later on the Travel Channel, amazing. Bosnia is beautiful and still recovering. I would love to go back and explore more, visit Mostar and tour more areas of Sarajevo.”

This was the best tour I've been on! Our guide, Vlado, was fantastic! He was so funny and open. He helped to put the history of the area into perspective, and he gave us a good background on where we were. It was interesting to see Sarajevo and the drive was beautiful. I would strongly recommend this tour.”

One of the best tours I have ever gone on. Marija our guide was great - very informative, superb sense of humor. I definitely recommend going up to Sarajevo - a unique and very interesting place. We easily did it in one day - although it is a very busy day. The driver was also fantastic - very good and the car was great too. I give it an A+!”

“

This was a long! day. Tour should have started very early in the morning considering on how far we had to travel. We unfortunately got stuck in line at the border. This further delayed things by an hour. It was great to stop in Mostar for a quick tour and look. We drove directly to Sarajevo and met with the local tour. The tour was very good but it was fast as we wanted to get through things in order to hit the road to get home. Sarejevo really just gave us the downtown highlights. I think doing an overnight in Sarajevo would be better. Great to see, but the tour was just too rushed!”

My tour to Sarejevo was wonderful. The two guides - one from Dubrovnik and the other in Sarejevo were very knowledgeable and had interesting stories to tell,. In particular my guide in Sarejevo was well versed in the history and restoration of Sarejevo. He was also very considerate of my need to rest occasionally and to walk a slower pace.”

Really enjoyed it.!! Driver is very good but drives fast. Know he is capable but what worries me always are the other drivers. Surely, if he drove the speed limit we would have been FOREVER on the road.”
