We had a great time with Dennis, who was very accommodating, kind, and punctual. He was very patient with us, as my mom has a bad knee and needed a little extra time getting places. He was super informative, and we had a great time overall! Thank you for an amazing experience, Dennis!
Great tour especially early on during our first time trip to Sarajevo. Dennis was a phenomenal tour guide for the city, providing both helpful information about important landmarks and keeping us entertained. The visit to Trbevic mountain viewpoint was particularly memorable. As we were the only group in the tour, he perfectly accommodated all of our needs and interests. The second half of the tour was very insightful about the Siege of Sarajevo including the Tunnel of Hope museum part of the tour, which included transportation.
This was a fabulous one day tour. Spent the morning on a walking tour with an amazing guide seeing the highlights of the city center area. Spent the afternoon going to. The tunnel of Hope. Our guide was a former policeman who knew so much about this war and what the city went through. Overall, an amazing experience today.
This was an incredible introduction to Sarajevo and the complexed history of the city. We covered all the highlights. Our guide Tarik was excellent with exceptional knowledge with matching enthusiasm.
Elma, our morning guide, was very pleasant and did a great job covering all the spots mentioned in the itinerary. I loved the inclusion of some local food snacks!! Afternoon tour to tunnel of Hope was also educational.
Such an amazing experience, both guides were very knowledgeable and I cannot recommend this trip highly enough. Thank you so much for a great day.
We had an excellent tour today which was made all that more special by our guide Aid. He was very knowledgeable in terms of all the sites we visited in Sarajevo as well as Bosnia in general. Visited all the main sites and enjoyed a very nice lunch and Bosnian coffee. Excellent day with a fantastic guide
