Experience Overview
Nature, history and culture collide across Bosnia and Herzegovina on this round-trip seven-day exploration from Sarajevo.
Nature, history and culture collide across Bosnia and Herzegovina on this round-trip seven-day exploration from Sarajevo. Recently touched by upheaval, the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina are eager to share their history and customs with you – through good food and local stories. Spot wild horses in the mountains, step inside a preserved bunker that remained a national secret for decades and go hiking to the mountain village of Lukomir. Then, tuck into home-made cheeses, pies and boreks, meet Sarajevo’s only female coppersmith and explore the historic and off-the-beaten-path town of Jajce.
Highlights
- Share a meal hosted by locals Mustafa and Mersiha in their kitchen overlooking the city of Sarajevo.
- Go off-road in search of wild horses in the foothills of Mount Cincar – your expert local leaders and guides know all the best spots to look.
- Explore the historic and off-the-beaten-path town of Jajce – the birthplace of Yugoslavia and home to centuries-old architecture and a fairytale waterfall.
- Step inside Josip Tito’s bunker – a massive and well-preserved underground nuclear shelter from the Yugoslav era that just recently opened to visitors.
- Meet Sarajevo’s only female coppersmith while wandering the cobblestone walkways of the city’s historic cultural centre.

This was a wonderful trip! I highly recommended Bosnia. It is such an interesting country that deserves to be better explored. The waterfalls and mountains are stunning. I especially loved the wild horses and the days in Mostar. Sarajevo is such a great city too. This trip had loads of interactions with local people, and lots of great food too! Tito's bunker was epic. The group were so lovely, and our guide Petar was exceptional. He was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and keen that we understood Bosnia and the wider region properly. I recommend adding a day in Sarejevo before/after and do the Siege of Sarajevo tour with Meet Bosnia.

A brilliant tour of Bosnia/Herzegovina with a great mix of activities from white water rafter to cooking demonstrations to history and culture. Pavle was a brilliant leader who was great fun, whilst keeping us all on track. Highly recommend both Intrepid and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This is a great trip for those with an interest in the Balkan region's history with lots of chances to enjoy a beautiful natural environment and fascinating city attractions too. Arrive a day early to spend time in Sarajevo. This trip suits all ages.

A breathtaking and magnificent country with wonderful people. Everywhere you turn there was a piece of history, culture or a view to absorb! Ivan our leader was amazing too!

A fantastic and fascinating trip. Busy and varied covering highlights of the country with a wide range of activities and destinations. Everyday felt packed but not rushed, good food and accommodation and fabulous scenery and sights. Would highly recommend!

I implore you to consider Bosnia & Herzegovina it is a destination of such diversity in food, culture, history and wilderness. One of the highlights of this trip included a traditional Bosnian dinner with a delightful couple who were generous with their time, food and experiences - a great ice breaker on your first night together as a group. However, finding wild horses in the mountains and getting to see them interacting with each other was super special. I learnt so much about the history of Bosnia & Herzegovina and the wider political landscape that contributed to where it is today. Hearing first hand accounts of the recent war was a humbling and unique experience. Our guide Ivan was fabulous he made everything seamless and did so with such humour. This trip is full of stunning landscapes, history, tasty delights and incredibly strong coffee. I have recommended it to any one that asks how my trip to Bosnia & Herzegovina was.
