Incredible and notable experience going through the struggle and visiting the scars that affected this beautiful country and its people. The tour agency explained anf guided through everything smoothly and giving an enriching experience.
A very nice tour with good insight into the genocide and interesting visits. Ayoub was a very good guide!
Ago was my guide the whole day. Pick up and drop off were so smooth. The history and the background information he shared through the trip were superb. I definitely recommend this tour company and particularly this tour if you want to learn about Srebrenica.
Very enriching and important visit to Srebrenica. Our guide was great and shared many accounts of this history with us.
Firstly we went on the great and highly informative free tour of Sarajevo which prompted us to buy the Srebrenica study tour. This tour was illuminating on one of the greatest tragedies of the 20th century. Our guide Amir, was highly knowledgeable and shared the history of his country, his own personal experience during the war and put into context what led to this genocide done in open view for the whole world to see while the UN did nothing to stop it. The memorial centre was a humbling experience. We spent quite a few hours there and then visited the cemetery and Amir went the extra mile to take around the city and show us where everything happened. Highly recommend this tour!
Fantastic and veey important sobering tour. Almir was an excellent guide. Very informative and knowledgeable. Thank you
We had a very good time, the tour is accurate and (dramatically) interesting and our guide was prepared and kind.
Great experience, passionating, troubling, inspiring; Almir is an extraordinary guide, he tells both personal memories and historic episodes with great competence, analytical depth and human touch; highly recommended
Really insightful guide who was clearly very passionate about and knowledgeable on the subject. It was really interesting listening to him and seeing what the current situation is in the Serbian majority part of the country. The guide pointed out places of interest and shared what happened there on the way to Srebrenica as it's a long drive. We stopped at a cafe owned by Bosniaks and our guide shared how Bosniaks are slowly returning to the area. There is no obligation to buy anything, but it is nice that the company gives tourists the opportunity to support local families trying to return to their hometowns/villages. The museum itself at Srebrenica was interesting with a lot of information on the topic and the museum guide was also insightful. While the tour is about a heavy topic, it is still an enjoyable experience to delve into the history of such a horrible period. I would highly recommend it for anyone interested in history or simply wanting to understand more about Bosnian resilience.
Fantastic guide Almir is a friendly and above all knowledgeable guide with a huge amount of knowledge on this subject. The personal stories make the whole thing impressive.
