Tour was amazing, tour guide Andro who is also an owner of the tour company was fantastic. It was raining really bad during our tour he took us to a cafe to wait for rain to pass a bit and after he tried to fit everything in for us to have best experience. He was on time and was flexible with time because our cruise was a little late on time originally schedule for a tour. He made sure we were happy and wanted my kids and I to go places we wanted and answered all the questions we had plus had such a great knowledge of the history of the region. Made my girls and I fall in love with Montenegro thanks to Andro. I highly recommend this tour you will be highly satisfied! If I could give it 10 stars I would!

After spending 2 days at Sarajevo by myself I felt I need to see more of this beautiful country. Luckily I met someone who recommended this tour. I firstly booked a half day tour to Trebević mountain and to the tunnel of hope, the tour was great so I decided to to book a full day tour where we visited 5 cities in Bosnia. I totally recommend this tour, the agents are very professional and friendly everything went exactly as planned. Ask for Mak.. he's great ????

My 18 year old daughter and I had the privilege of spending an afternoon with Vedad on the Bosnian War tour. We were so very impressed with Vedad's ability to remain objective despite personal lived experience as a young child in the war. He shared some personal stories, spoke about the history of the region as well as the current political state, and expressed hope for the future. He was incredibly knowledgeable and invited questions and dialogue. This tour advanced my perspective and I am truly grateful for the gifts Vedad gave through his passion, humanity, and hope. Best to you as always Vedad...K and A

Despite the lack of tourists during the pandemic, Enes and Nadir went out of their way to provide a great tour experience. Enes' witty and expressive personality was definitely the highlight of the tour. We had a blast walking through the fresh snow at the abandoned bobsled track and admiring the expansive view of Sarajevo from the abandoned restaurant on Mount Trebević. I appreciated that Enes shared some of his own personal experiences, like how he managed to track down the Swedish (?) boy that sent him gifts during the war and that he had the chance to personally meet and thank Bruce Dickinson, lead singer of Iron Maiden, for performing at Sarajevo during the siege. Enes has great taste in music and even sent me some songs related to the conflict in Sarajevo, which accompanied me during the rest of my time in the city and gave me a lot to reflect on. The sites we went to were all super fascinating. At the Tunnel of Hope, I got to hear the stories of individuals who braved their lives to bring in food and supplies during the Siege. Enes was very candid in his delivery of Sarajevo's history. I could tell it meant a lot to him. If anything, this tour was too short!

A person with passion for his work. I think this is the best description for the guide. He has a very deep knowledge about the history of Sarajevo and Bosnia. We were more than satisfied with his guidance. I especially thank him because he was very attentive to the corona measures.
