Going to the top of the mountain is a must during your trip. Climbing with a cane is much easier considering if your trip companions are aged. Flow the lamp for an easy climb and descent.

As someone who is born in Sarajevo and spent childhood in Sarajevo during the war, I must say that this museum is fascinating and unique, both for people in Sarajevo and tourists. All stories in the museum are unique, some sad some funny, but great describe everyday life of children in war period. And that life wasn't easy. Staff is great and very helpful. The museum is very close to the old city. I recommend for everyone to come and visit it.

Mostar is a short 2-3hr drive from the Croatian coastal cities of Split and Dubrovnik - making it an excellent choice for a day trip. Most of the Town was destroyed during the civil war but has been painstakingly restored. The focal point is the iconic bridge which is packed with tourist waiting to watch local men jump the 21 metres in to the ice cold water below. Firstly, it’s a show for money - so be expected to contribute. Secondly it’s not for the faint of hearted - 21m is a long way day, especially diving in to water just 6m deep. Either side of the bridge are shops and restaurants where you can stop for lunch, a beer and watch the performance.

Kravice Falls

Reviewed By albaj2013 - London, United Kingdom

We planned a day trip from Dubrovnik: driving through the Croatian and Bosnian mountains all the way to the beautiful town of Mostar, and stopping at Kravica waterfalls on the way back. Really cute place - not huge waterfalls but still very lovely and nice to relax and swim ( if you can bare the very cold water!).

Beautiful area to walk along the streets, cross the bridge and take lots of photos that are postcard worthy! Nice places to stop for ice cream, coffee, and shop for local artwork. Some good restaurants as well with million dollar views. We found everyone to be very friendly and accommodating.

Cheap, stunning views. Bring your mobile. Then enjoy coffee and a snack before heading back. Only big surprise is that the tower seems rather disconnected from the heart of the city.

Bascarsija

Bascarsija is Sarajevo's old bazaar and the historical and cultural center of the city. Bascarsija was built in the 15th century when Isa-Beg Isakovic founded the town. The word Bascarsija derives from the Turkish language. The word "bas" which is "bas" in Turkish literally means "head", in some contexts however also "primary", "main", "capital" and "carsija" which is "carsi" in Turkish means "bazaar" or "market". Due to the large fire in the 19th century, today Bascarsija is half the size that it once was. Bascarsija is located on the north bank of the river Miljacka, in the municipality of Stari Grad. On Bascarsija there are several important historic buildings, such as the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and sahat-kula. Today Bascarsija is the major tourist attraction of Sarajevo.

We had a wonderful stay in Sarajevo, for almost a month, before a sudden departure, (due to covid-19), the highlight of the city is definitely, the old neighbourhood, we spent most of our time here just walking the alleyways, enjoying the food, (which is amazing) and the coffee houses, (a wonderful experience) we highly recommend starting a visit, with a free walking tour of the old town to get your boots on the ground. Our faves: Cock tower and bakery, (Pekara Imaret loacated within the courtyard), Bosna eatery Baklava coffee shop
