Hard to imagine, isn’t it?

Funky Tours arranged several excellent tours while I was based in Bosnia (one or two which were free of charge) between October 2020 and March 2021. This included a food and drink tasting tour, the siege of Sarajevo tour, a day trip to Jajce and Travnik, a day trip to the Srebrenica genocide memorial centre, as well as one to Herzegovina which included stops in Mostar, Medugorje and Pocitelj. Each tour was outstanding and the tour guides, having lived through the events you learn about on the tours, are fascinating people to spend a day with (a big thanks in particular to Taib). I learned so much about Bosnia, past and present, from them.    Booking the tours was always made easy and they even arranged a customised tour of the famous Sarajevo City Hall which included a visit to a replica ICTY courtroom (a big thanks in particular to Ema). I learned so much about Bosnia on each tour - from what it was like living through the war to finding out about the Bosnia of today.  Even although some of the events they cover are difficult for a visitor to comprehend (partly because the country has been largely rebuilt), you come away from it realising how relevant Bosnia's history is to the world we live in today. I was lucky enough to see first hand so many of the great things about the country - its diverse landscapes and stunning views across several towns and cities (especially Sarajevo), how much the country has been rebuilt in the last 20 years (it would not be fair to class Bosnia as 'war torn' any longer), the wonderful mix of architecture and traditions, its excellent local cuisine and of course the down to earth and wonderfully hospitable Bosnian people who are always welcoming of visitors. Bosnians are rightfully keen to show that their country has so much more to it than the war that ended there more than 25 years ago. Having been on several tours I feel like I am just about an expert on all things Bosnia and Herzegovina. I absolutely recommend Funky Tours - in fact I cannot recommend them highly enough. Bosnia is a great country to explore and because of its offering which includes Olympic ski slopes near Sarajevo and vineyards in Herzegovina it can be considered as both a winter and summer destination. The main thing is to make sure you go there at some point - and use Funky Tours to show you around! (the tours I went on were always carried out within covid restrictions, in a small group or one to one)

Sarajevo and Belgrade, once capitals of ex Yugoslav Republics, two cities which Sarajevo Funky Tours today has brought together much closer by developing a stunning full day and multi day tours, which are logically connecting and covering regions of Eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina and West Serbia. Famous “Bridge over Drina”, “Šargan Eight” at Nature Park of Mokra Gora and National Park Tara are marvelous destinations every and each one travelling through Balkans must see. For that purpose SAFT has created series of international day and multi-day trips which are beautifully connecting ex YU republics and bringing great insight what Yugoslavia once was from perspective of culture, history and natural beauty.

I had a hard time finding a group tour for the Iron Gate so I was happy to find this group tour! I initially booked the Cruising the Iron Gate tour through a website for a company called Serbian Adventures, but it was actually run by Magelan Travel. I found the meeting point in the morning a bit tricky to find (meet at the bus stop across from the skate park). As best I could tell, I was one of only a few non-locals, but the guide did provide the information in both English and Serbian and it added a bit of adventure to the day! I really enjoyed the fortress (it's a few extra Euros to access the towers) and enjoyed the cruise along the Danube. The lunch stop was also a really lovely surprise! While it was a long day, all in all it was a great way to see a lot of lovely sights in one day.

We warmly suggest to take this tour on in order to consciously experience the Bosnian capital, to understand its distinctive architecture along with its welcoming people. Ms Dzenana guided us through the memories of Sarajevo in a two-days-trip that we will remember forever...There's nothing better than studying a heart-breaking past while looking at the beautiful contradictions of this small cosy city. We appreciated Dzenana' selection of highlights, the wise alternance of didactical moments and relax at cafes, her enthusiast attitude and her accuracy.

7. Višegrad Tour- visit to UNESCO Bridge and Andrićgrad

Spirit Tours

Perfect day trip from Sarajevo to East part of the country, in entity of Republic of Srpska, in about 2-hour drive. For those who like to enjoy, it can be relaxing to sit on the bridge to rest and absorb energy from the irreproachable river Drina that runs beneath them. If You are lucky enough, You will see wild horses runing free on our way back to Sarajevo. This area is one of the most beautiful natural attractions in Southeast Europe, but also a significant cultural and historical monument.

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!

In these nostalgic days for traveling, I sit on the couch and thinking how nice it was to be able to travel. And so it occurred to me last year and a visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina, more precisely only to Herzegovina and its beauties. So I had to write a few words for this beautiful country and its natural beauties. The tour of Mostar left the most beautiful impression on me, the Old Bridge and the old part of the city are beautiful. Then a visit to Jablanica and the bridge that was destroyed in the war. So this country also has a rich history. And finally, I must mention the wonderful guides who took us to every corner of these cities and told us about history, even gave us free time to buy souvenirs. 10/10 for guides! p.s. Be sure to try Bosnian coffee and Turkish delight.
