Additional Information

✔️ Journey Through the Historic Old Bridge Area

Immerse yourself in the serene and unique ambiance of Mostar, an ancient township sited along the deep Neretva river valley, established in the 15th and 16th centuries as an Ottoman border town. The renowned Old bridge, a prominent UNESCO world heritage site, is the town’s standout attraction.

✔️ War Photo Exhibition

Experience a profound photographic narrative by Wade Goddard, a Kiwi photojournalist who chronicled Mostar’s war strife firsthand. Showcased in the Old bridge’s western tower, the exhibition features approximately 50 gripping images from the wartime, situated above the bridge divers’ club.

✔️ Bulevar Mostar

A significant city artery, the Bulevar street, stretches from the northern to the southern part of the city. Once a war-ridden dividing line between Bosnians and Croats, it now stands as the city’s vibrant hub, housing the magnificent Mostar city hall.

✔️ Spanish Square

The city’s central hub, the Spanish Square, is merely a 5-10 minute walk from the Old Bridge. An ideal spot for relaxation, this charming square is the perfect place to unwind, sit back and appreciate the beautiful sunsets.

Best Tour Guide Ever!! 👍 - Me and my son solo travelled in Balkan. Mostar was our 7th city. We wanted to make the most of our short visit and we definately made the right decision doing a day tour with Sanja 😍. Sanja is very passionate about giving the best information about places we visited. She shared stories about how people are living in Mostar and stories about the war. We went to Blagaj, Kravice waterfall, Pocitelj old town and the last stop was on top of a hill with a magnificent panorama view of Mostar. She is wonderful with kids. My 10 years old son had a great time with her. I am sure she will be dearly remembered by him 😍. Sanja is the best guide you can ever have for families with kids. We recommend families with kids to have a tour with Sanja. Thank you Sanja. We will be back to eat more delicious Burek with you 😋 😍

Perfect way to experience Mostar - My fiancé and I spent three days in Mostar and doing this private tour was the best thing we did! Sanjay was absolutely lovely and so knowledgeable and it felt like we were walking the streets and asking questions of a friend rather than a tour. We saw huge groups walking past and definitely appreciated being able to have a tailored experience and get to ask about Mostar and the history, the conflict and more broadly about the country. Definitely recommend a tour with Sanja!!!!
