1. ARK D-0: Tito's Nuclear Bunker
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 122 reviews
Reviewed By GeysirGal - Surrey, United Kingdom
When I heard about this place during my research for this trip I knew I wanted to visit, but as a solo traveller finding an agency to go with was no easy matter since most have a minimum group size and I could not afford the high price for a solo tour. I was lucky though that half an hour after I left the agency they had a booking for a large group whom I was able to join - I was definately meant to go! The tour was amazing and such an eye opener. The guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, telling us not only the history of the bunker but also many interesting facts about life in Mostar both before and after the War - most of which you will not find in the guide books. The bunker though is so interesting with so many rooms you could explore - we only saw a small part of course as much is off limits for visitors. I can't imagine what life must have been like for those who were stationed here or indeed built the complex, and it is strange to think that Tito in all likelihood never set foot in the place. We criticise our own Government for wasting money - but! I have viisted a much smaller nuclear bunker in Prague but it was nothing compared to this, which dwarfs what I saw there. One of the most interesting parts apart from of course Tito's private quarters was the area where you can view all the artwork - there is so much you could read into a lot of this, which tells a thousand stories. If you get the chance to go then do so, you won't regret it.
2. War Photo Exhibition
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 102 reviews
Reviewed By Jasper_Rees01 - Burley, United Kingdom
Moving, powerful and informative. A great way to get a historical and emotional snapshot of the war in Mostar from the perspective of a New Zealand photo-journalist who was living there at the time. Haunting to put the pictures in perspective, as many of the streets and buildings pictured will be familiar to you if you have spent the day wondering in Mostar. Cheap and takes 20-40 mins - leave a donation - they deserve it.
