Sarajevo for beginners
Joined 2022
A two-hour walk through the historical core of Sarajevo is ideal for those who do not stay long in our city and want to find out more about this interesting place. We can also call the tour a “journey through centuries”, since we touch the different time epochs, starting from the ancient Neolithic, to this day. Among other things, we will find out: Who is the founder of Sarajevo and what exactly does the name Sarajevo mean? Where does the doom of Sarajevo City Hall come from? And much more.

For tours requiring transportation I need to know number of people a day in advance (if booked for a group).
I can organize guiding tours in Mostar, Banja Luka, Bihać, Stolac, Trebinje and Livno if you inquire about it a week ahead. Also it's possible for me to book a guide in those places and connect you with them.

Eat as locals do
Sarajevo is known for its delicious food, created by the mix of different cultures that were present throughout history. Enjoy with us in the traditional delicacies offered by this city. Sarajevo and the whole of Bosnia are famous for good food and drink. There are few visitors to this city who do not meet the phenomenal ćevapi or pljeskavica, cheese pie and, of course, burek. This thematic tour implies an emphasis on the gastronomic offer of Sarajevo, a story worth of knowing.
The art of survival
This tour and the museums we see tell the story of the dark and sad part of Sarajevo’s history. Only twenty years ago, citizens of this city spent the longest siege in the history of modern warfare. For almost four years they were exposed to continuous attacks by various weapons, without electricity, water, any connection to the outside world. The way Sarajevo’s citizens survived is rightly called “The Art of Survival”. What really happened in Sarajevo from ’92 to ’95? Let's learn together.
