Sarajevo
Sarajevo Trips
Sarajevo is a cultural cocktail formed by various occupying empires. It spent more than 400 years under Turkish governorship, until the Austro-Hungarians arrived in the late 19th century, thus Ottoman and Byzantine references can be found all over the city. And it was here that, 40 years later, the empire collapsed when Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated, hastening the outbreak of the First World War.
During the 1990s, the city was besieged and on the point of being wiped out. On our Sarajevo tours, we visit the Tunnel Museum, finding out how a hand-dug tunnel provided the citizens with a lifeline during their 1,400 days of isolation. These days, Sarajevo is largely resorted and the Old Town is filled with pretty cafés, squares and churches.

Adam Felgate Walking in Bosnia & Herzegovina
Nick Lobo Walking in Bosnia & HerzegovinaThis was an absolutely perfect trip for me (55) and my daughter (24). The walking was a good mix of moderate to a bit more arduous. The chance to visit Trebinje, Sarajevo, Mostar, Dubrovnik was nicely interspersed with the walks in quiet and fantastic scenery…. Alpine meadows with butterflies everywhere at 2000m! Weather was great in July, though thunderstorms were an ever-present threat to the itinerary. Well-planned by competent and fun guides. Exceptional driver. Accommodation good. People lovely. Food and drink affordable. Cannot find anything to moan about!
