Itinerary
After meeting you at the pre-arranged meeting point, we’ll begin our journey to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Come to Mostar and listen as the guide introduces you to the history of this city. Visit the old bazaar and museum, and admire the picturesque shops and workshops. We’ll enjoy a walk along the famous Old Bridge from the 16th century, which is the most notable landmark of Mostar and the first monument in Bosnia and Herzegovina listed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. After the guided tour, guests are invited to taste a glass of our exceptional wine. You’ll have some free time, which you can use for shopping or to taste some authentic Bosnian specialities like cevapi, pita, or burek.
The Old Bridge was recently rebuilt and many of the edifices in the Old Town have been restored or rebuilt with the contribution of an international scientific committee established by UNESCO.
Medjugorje gained worldwide recognition in 1981 when six young people claimed to have had apparitions of the Virgin Mary. The apparitions have continued to this day, and the town has become a pilgrimage site for Catholics who seek spiritual renewal and healing. The town is known for its rolling hills and scenic countryside, which provide a beautiful backdrop. The main attraction of Medjugorje is Apparition Hill, where the Virgin Mary first appeared to the young people in 1981. The town is also home to the Church of St. James, a beautiful and sacred place where pilgrims can attend mass and participate in other spiritual activities.

It is a very nice tour. It’s amazing the driver Tone make it so easy. He’s such a nice person. And the tour guide she is such a wonderful lady with a lot of experience and knowledge.
Our guide Ivan (the terrible) made day long tour fun and enjoyable throughout, also Mostar guide Honey (Henna) is very knowledgeable and able to clearly explain importance of landmarks.

The driver was terrific! We drove to Bosnia and saw Mostar. Then we drove to see the Virgin Mary site. It was phenomenal!! Highly highly recommend!! If you’re visiting Split it’s a wonderful opportunity to go see Bosniaherzogovina too!
There were issues with scheduling and my pick up location but in the end worked everything out. Antonio )Tony) was a fantastic driver and kept me entertained.
Great trip, really enjoyed it. 100% recommended. We needed to change to following day and the company providing the tour were so accommodating, nothing was too much trouble.
Dear Jeff, we are really grateful for taking your time to share your feedback. Your experience means a lot to us and we can't wait to welcome you again on one of our tours! Best regards, South Tours Team
The following is a summary of our problems with our shuttle/tour on 17 September 2025; (Driver: “Emiel”?): 1. Minor delay/Confusion at start - driver a little late and then thought it was for four instead of eight people 2. Reckless decision to drive van in reverse on highway because of missing turn-off 3. Major delays at border(s); not driver’s fault(?) Ultimately lost (1) hour upon arriving at Mostar 4. 25 min. Delay departing Mostar (After leaving starting point, Driver’s/GPS directed us back to same location! The driver had never been to Mostar or Medjugorje and did not provide any information once we we dropped off on a side street in Medjugorje. Ultimately lost another hour of our time in Medjugorje; could not see main attraction one of the important reasons we traveled here! We shared this experience both in person and in writing and the company has never responded to our feedback.

We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the chance to welcome you again for a much smoother and more enjoyable tour. Warm regards, South Tours Croatia Team
too little time to see things, they are not flexible with customer reviews, such as not stopping to take some photo 5 minutes and the motorways with too high speeds.
EStimado Fernando, Muchas gracias por compartirnos su experiencia. Lamentamos que algunos aspectos del tour no hayan cumplido con sus expectativas. Nuestro objetivo siempre es encontrar el equilibrio adecuado entre respetar el horario y permitir que los pasajeros disfruten plenamente de los lugares de interés.

En cuanto a la conducción, la seguridad es nuestra máxima prioridad y comunicaremos a nuestro equipo la importancia de garantizar la comodidad de todos los pasajeros durante el viaje. Sus comentarios son muy importantes para nosotros y los utilizaremos para mejorar nuestro servicio y la experiencia de nuestros clientes. Agradecemos sus comentarios y esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirle nuevamente en el futuro para brindarle una experiencia aún mejor. Saludos cordiales de South Tours
Our guide cut our tour short. We did not have a wine tasting or museum tour as was promised and that we paid for. She left us in the town and did not escort us back to our transportation.
Dear reader, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are truly sorry to know that your tour was cut short and that the promised wine tasting and museum visit did not take place. It is also concerning to hear that you were not accompanied back to your transportation, which is not the standard of care we expect from our guides. Please accept our sincere apologies for this disappointing experience. We are already reviewing this matter with our guide team to ensure that it does not happen again. We hope we may have the chance to welcome you back and provide you with the experience you originally expected. Kind regards South Tours Team
We had a great time on our tour to Mostar. Our driver, Ivan, and tour guide, Adriana, were both wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the day enjoyable. The downside was that the tour didn’t include the wine tasting or museum visit that was listed in the description. While we still had a nice experience, it was a bit misleading and disappointing not to receive everything that was advertised.
Dear reader, Thank you so much for your kind words about Ivan and Adriana — we’re delighted to hear they made your tour to Mostar enjoyable and memorable. We’ll be sure to share your compliments with them. We also sincerely apologize that the wine tasting and museum visit were not included as advertised. We’re grateful for your feedback, as it helps us improve, and we truly hope to welcome you back on another tour where we can provide the complete experience you expect and deserve. Best regards South Tours Team
