Beautiful and very enjoyable tour
This tour from Sarajevo was a great day out, with wonderful stops in Travnik, Jajce, and the stunning Pliva Lakes and watermills. Everything was well organized, the scenery was amazing, and the guide, Alem was friendly and informative. A really lovely experience that I’d happily recommend.

Everything was perfect. Our group was small, so we got probably the best information about the places we have visited. Our guide, Hismet (or Kismet, sorry), was great too. Also, great communication with the agency before the tour. Definitely recommended

My guide Ismet was excellent! I had the pleasure of his company for another tour later in the week! Despite biblical rain in the morning on the way to and in Travnik, the weather changed for the better in the afternoon and greeted with sunshine and a great visit to the falls at Jajce. Thanks Ismet and Meet Bosnia tours ⭐️🇧🇦

The company, our guide Hannah and our driver did an excellent job.
This was an interesting day and worthwhile to see this part of the country. There is a lot of time in the van, so keep that in mind.
If you can only visit one part of the country while in Sarajevo, I would suggest the classic East Bosnia tour that is offered as my first choice and then do this tour if you have extra time.
(I am visiting Mostar separately, so that was not considered for me from Sarajevo.)
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Dear guest,
Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad to hear you had an interesting and worthwhile experience with us. It’s great that Hannah and our driver made the day enjoyable and informative. We appreciate your feedback about the time spent in the van, and we completely understand that the East Bosnia tour can be a great first choice for those with limited time.
We hope to welcome you again in the future, whether it’s for this tour or another part of Bosnia and Herzegovina!
Best regards,

Bosnia has a great nature with so many historical places . Fortresses, Clock Towers, Mosques, Churches etc. the best way to see all of them with local tour guide is Agan . He did amazing job . We talked about history, politic, music , Modern Bosnia and historical Bosnia , cuisine, everything. I recommend you to get this tour with Agan . He is the best
Response from Host, Jun 2023
It's wonderful to hear that you had such a great experience exploring the historical places and nature of Bosnia. Agan sounds like an amazing tour guide, providing a wealth of knowledge and engaging in diverse discussions about various aspects of Bosnia, from history and politics to music and cuisine. Having a local tour guide can truly enhance the experience as they can offer unique insights and perspectives.
By engaging in conversations with Agan, you not only learned about the historical sites but also delved into the culture and contemporary aspects of Bosnia. It's fantastic to have a well-rounded tour experience that encompasses different facets of a destination.
Thank you for recommending Agan and emphasizing the value of exploring Bosnia with a knowledgeable local guide. Such experiences can truly enrich our understanding and appreciation of a place.

This tour was phenomenal, not only because of the sites, nature and history which it encompasses, but also because of the exceptionally good guide we had.
Adnan was the perfect guide - not only highly knowledgeable and extremely professional, but also kind, entertaining, and possessing excellent English.
With his guidance and inside knowledge, we were able to make the most out of Central Bosnia in the best possible way and this tour provided a lot of added value - history, politics and a behind-the-scenes look into everything - from a guide who truly cares about his country and about providing the best possible experience to those who participate in his tour. On top of all of this, the driving skills were top-notch as well :) 6/5 stars, highly recommended.
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Dear Shai,
Thanks for your feedback.
We are more than happy to have chance to host you on our tours and to show you beauties of our lovely country.
Stay safe.

I really loved this tour. Hamza was great. And I highly recommend this tour agency. The girl in the agency was in contact with me and tried her best to accommodate me when there was a problem with the tour booking. After our tour Hamza took us to a great restaurant that served Cevapi. It was the best I tried in Bosnia

We enjoyed the excellent services of Meet Bosnia Travel Company and especially of our personal guide Mr. Adnan Cengic. We got many memorable impressions in respect of the history, culture, sights, nature, meals and people of BiH.
We are very satisfied and express our thanks. We recommend the traveling tourist community to visit BiH as soon as possible.
