7 Days Balkan Tour Bosnia Croatia Montenegro Albania N.Macedonia

Elvis and Edis are just 2 incredible people! In addition to their historical knowledge they have all these great stories to tell, know so much about contemporary issues as locals and basically if you have any questions about the Balkans from 1,000 years ago or today, they are very knowledgeable and can answer any question! It was wonderful spending the week with Edis as our driver and guide going through 5 Balkan countries. He is a great storyteller and it was great hearing about his experience living in the Balkans. He is very knowledgeable and was great company for my teenage son and I!

The tour was an exceptional week of learning about the complex and sometimes tragic relationships of these Balkan countries. The sights were amazing and the history of each site we visited was detailed by knowledgeable local guides. Our 7-day tour was well organized and as we had a personal driver/guide (Zulfo) who was also contributing we couldn't have asked for more. Elvis and especially Zulfo gave us an experience that we won't forget. I highly recommend this tour and especially this company of guides.

We just completed the 7 day tour of 5 countries with Tour Mage, and we were very happy with the trip. It was challenging trying to find a tour company that would do a private tour of the Balkans, but I found Tour Mage online (via Tour Radar) and as soon as I started texting with Elvis, the owner, I felt great about the tour. He was incredibly responsive every time I reached out to him during the planning stages - even in the middle of the night Bosnia time (I am in the U.S.), and very positive. The actual tour went off without any issues. We were picked up at the aiport on time, taken the the hotels he had booked, and visited all of the sites. I fell in love with Bosnia-Herzogina and Northern Macedonia, though all 5 of the countries were nice. We had an incredible driver - Edis - who was very professional, knowledgeable, and polite. In each new country, we had a city tour and learned so much about the Balkans. We grew to love the different cultures, food, music, wine, history, and beautiful scenery. The only downsides were the very hot weather (perhaps we should have selected May or September instead of July) and bad traffic at times. Everyday was in the 90's and sometimes 100+ degrees F. However, the car was air-conditioned and so were the hotels. Due to bad traffic, we didn't have as much downtime as we expected, but still greatly enjoyed the trip. Highlights were Sarajevo, Mostar, Dubrovnik, Lake Orhic, Skopje, and the two wineries we visited. We would definitely recommend Tour Mage without reservation. A very talented team of tourism specialists!

Great tour with a very nice French speaking guide. at chape hotel the welcome was perfect. Only Bug is breakfast , we were allowed a coffee included in the trip, if not the second one was extra it seems a bit petty to me.

My vacation in the Balkans, where I visited three countries, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. I loved the various places, namely Dubrovnik, Omiš, Split, Trogir, Mostar, Čitluk, Trebinje, Kotor, Budva and Bijela. The cities and monuments are magnificent, and it's a shame the various ethnicities didn't get along. But it is an unforgettable trip.

This experience was really new for me.I discovered in a private tour with friends all the beauty of the Balcans. We traveled whith the company of a very nice and friendly driver.We did'nt feel the time passed on the trip. We visited very beautiful cities. and places in every of them we were waited for local guides very competents.We learn a lot of the history and other details in their company and they answered every question we made.And of course made a lot of nice pictures everywhere. I'm very satisfied with the accomodations , we had hotels very well located and with excelent breakfast. It's was a very nice trip .well organized.we met nice people and I' will be back again with friends or family
