This was a memorable trip for me and am so glad that I found G Adventures. Having a leader from the country itself made a huge difference - he could explain so many nuanced things to us. I will definitely recommend this trip to friends!

Excellent

Fascinating tour with great mix of experiences in rural areas and in smaller cities/towns in a country with very complicated history. It is a beautiful country. Our guide ( Ismar) was excellent! He offered information and insight into the issues faced in his country. I learned so much! The fellow tour members were also interesting, as Bosnia is not the first choice for a novice international traveler.
