Bosnia · MOSTAR TOURS
Almost nobody stays in Mostar longer than two nights, which makes the choice of day trip the whole decision. These 15 cover the Old Bridge and the bazaar, the Herzegovina circuit out to Kravice, and the runs down from Sarajevo, Split and Dubrovnik.
Travel from Dubrovnik into Bosnia and Herzegovina with an English-speaking guide and driver. Swim at Kravica Waterfalls, see medieval Počitelj, and spend three hours around Mostar’s Old Bridge. Bring Euros, your passport, and patience for border checks.
“Fabulous day - really worth going. Bus driver - Brunto- kept to time schedule and guide -Don was fabulous. Highly recommend.”
Spend eight hours beyond Mostar with an English-speaking guide such as Esmer or Mirza. Visit Fortica Hill, Blagaj Tekija, Počitelj, Kravice Waterfalls, and Buna Kanals, with time for lunch, photos, shopping, and swimming. Transport and pickup are included, but waterfall entry and meals cost extra.
“Our guide Mirza was charismatic and made the tour fun, insightful and very resourceful in terms of history and culture. I would recommend this trip to be the best value one for the area of Herzegovina.”
Join Adi, Omar, or Anel in a small group of up to seven for an eight-hour Herzegovina outing. You’ll see Fortica’s Skywalk, Blagaj’s spring and Dervish House, Bunski Kanali, Ottoman Počitelj, and Kravice Waterfalls, with free time, summer cave boating, and hotel pickup included.
“I had a fantastic day with Adi and our group. I went as a solo participant but never felt lonely. I think that's hugely attributed to Adi - not just because he is the most attentive guide and guy but also has a great way to deal with the group as a whole. I got to see beautiful places and honestly fell in love with Bosnia - and the Hercegovina in particular. Adi himself is a wonderful guide - thoughtful, genuine and with a lot of knowledge. I could ask him everything, the good and the bad. Thank you so much for sharing your stories and thank you so much…”
Travel by air-conditioned minivan from Mostar to Blagaj Tekija, Žitomislići Monastery, Počitelj, and Kravice Falls. Guides such as Sedad and Marko combine clear history with free time, local food stops, and a chance to swim beneath the waterfalls.
“Marko was great! Thank you for the wonderful tour. He has great historical stories told objectively that keep you entertained & amazed!”
Travel from Split into Bosnia and Herzegovina with an English-speaking guide, stopping at medieval Počitelj, historic Mostar, and Kravice Waterfalls. Expect a guided walk, two hours of free time, a border crossing, and time to swim beneath the cascades.
“Superb day out. Nebo was a friendly, knowledgable guide. Well paced day with good amount of time at each stop. Highly recommend.”
Join local guide Anel for an eight-hour small-group trip from Mostar to Počitelj, Kravica Waterfalls, Blagaj, and Fortica Hill. Expect air-conditioned transport, free time at every stop, Bosnian coffee, local snacks, and a cave boat ride when water levels allow.
“Our experience in Mostar was made truly unforgettable because of our guide, Anel. He was incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout, making sure we felt comfortable and taken care of. What stood out the most was how much he genuinely loves his city and country — you can feel it in the way he shares stories, history, and little details that you wouldn’t find anywhere else. His passion and warmth made the activity not just informative, but very personal and memorable. Highly recommended if you want to experience Mostar in the best way possible!”
Travel from Mostar in a small English-speaking group of up to 10 people, visiting medieval Počitelj, Ottoman Blagaj, Vrelo Bune, and Kravica Waterfall. Guides such as Sedad, Leo, Anel, Adi, and Emir are known for lively history and local insight. Bring swimwear, shoes, and cash for entry fees.
“Great way to explore surroundings without a car. Special thanks to our guide Leo, he was super professional, took us to couple hidden gems of this beautiful country and was always there to chat and tell some stories from his experience.”
Spend about three hours tracing Mostar’s wartime story with local guides such as Esmer, Harun, or Vedad. Visit Tito’s hidden aircraft hangar, the Mostar War Museum, and former front-line streets, with hotel pickup and drop-off available.
“On our trip to Mostar we had pre booked a half day tour - The Break up of Yugoslavia & The War in Mostar: Life Under Siege. Myself and my husband love to explore where we visit as much as possible and find a guided tour is always the best way to do it. I was looking forward to the tour as I knew we would gain so much more knowledge about Mostar than if we had wondered round on our own, however I was just not prepared for how much we would take from this whole experience. I am ashamed to say that before my visit as a UK…”
Spend about 2.5 hours with guides such as Marko, Marco, Miran, Dario, or Marin, visiting four secret Yugoslav-era sites around Mostar. Expect local stories, music, Cold War history, the Bosnian War, and round-trip transport for up to 16 people.
“The tour is something not to be missed. Our guide (sorry, i’m bad with names) was great! Provided the facts peppered with great humour. Even though the tour was supposed to be 2.5h, in the end we had it for slightly more than 3h, but it did not felt like so. Well done!”
Walk Mostar’s Old Town with a private local guide, visiting Crooked Bridge, the Old Bridge, and two historic mosques. Guides such as Ivan, Adi, Vesna, and Adriana are praised for clear history, personal stories, food tips, and flexible pacing. The tour lasts about 75 minutes.
“Terrific overview of the past and current history of Mostar. Learned and saw a lot. Definitely recommend.”
At Food House Mostar, Amina guides you through making burek from scratch, including the dough, filling, and rolling. Enjoy a welcome drink, learn about Bosnian food traditions, eat your freshly baked pie, and take home a recipe booklet. Vegetarian fillings can be arranged.
“Wonderful afternoon making Burek in an authentic and informative way. Amina was great, helping us to learn about the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as the cooking. Our 10 year old really enjoyed the experience too. We had the option of making a vegetarian version if needed, and got to eat what we made! Thank you!”
Set out from Jablanica with comfortable kayaks, paddles, life jackets, and dry bags. Haris explains the route before you paddle without a guide through Grabovica Lake, beneath Prenj and Čvrsnica. Allow up to six hours for the beach, swim, picnic, and return journey.
“Harris was extremely helpful. He explained everything in detail - told us about weather conditions and how they may impact us - spoke about the route in detail - warned us of any risks and covered any contingencies - provided us with contact numbers for himself and local taxi we were able to have a very enjoyable experience even though the weather wasn't ideal. He even volunteered to drop our mum off to the restaurant nearby where she could wait comfortablly. I was very impressed with the equipment provided - they gave us waterproof jackets, dry bags, the kayak was very comfortable as the seats were good and it had…”
Set out from Glogošnica with Haris and the Visit Jablanica team for a self-guided kayak trip on the calm Neretva. Paddle beneath Prenj and Čvrsnica, stop at Grabovicko Lake and a secluded beach, swim, picnic, and return at your own pace. Kayaks, safety gear, and dry bags are included.
“Mooie ervaring, personeel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Mooi landschap en tof strand om uit te rusten. We hebben een leuke dag gehad. Heel rustig en niet te toeristisch.”
Travel from Mostar with a private English-speaking driver-guide to Blagaj Tekija, Ottoman Počitelj, Roman Mogorjelo, and Kravice Falls. Guides such as Chamil and Çemil tailor the pace, point out lesser-known sights, and leave time for swimming in summer.
“First of all, be aware that while this is billed as the typical highlights of the Mostar area tour visiting the sites that most tourists want to see, and something I recommend if it if your first time in Mostar, you are getting way more than the typical tour really. While the typical tour includes Blagaj, Pocitelj, and the Kravice falls, Chama makes it a point to take you to the little visited but incredibly rich Roman archeological site of Mogorjelo, dating back to 70 AD, which very few people ever get to see and you would certainly never see on a group tour. At the Kravice falls, escaping the…”
Spend 90 minutes with a private English- or Dutch-speaking guide through Mostar’s Old Town, from the Peace Tower and Crooked Bridge to Kajtaz House, Koski Mehmed Pasha Mosque, and the Old Bridge. Local guides such as Amna add personal history, food tips, and useful context.
“The guide was very accommodating! It was very busy because of the Redbull diving off the old bridge, we asked if we could sit and get most of the information that way, so we got lots of stories and a personal touch. We also did some walking but where it was not so busy and we could take our time. Very good experience!”
Pick a river, a bazaar or a mountain road.
