Authentic personal insight into the history of war - We had a wonderful guided tour to the siege of Sarajevo. Adis responded to all our questions superbly and created a very pleasant atmosphere. We've learned a lot. Especially the conversation with the war veteran was very impressive. I can only recommend this tour, as you get a very personal and authentic insight into the history here.

Unique Experience - I did many walking tours but this really is a unique one. Adis knows the City and People in depth and I enjoyed talking to him a lot. If you are really interested in getting more than just a general tour, he is the right person. I left with lasting memories and appreciate the sides I got to see of Sarajevo.

ADIS walking tours Sarajevo - My husband and I did the free walking tour with ADIS on Friday October 8 and really enjoyed it. ADIS was knowledgeable friendly and offered a balanced view of the history of Sarajevo with a sense of humour! We also did the Inside the Siege tour with his assistant who was a really excellent guide and offered a young person’s perspective together with an impressive wealth of historical information. Both guides have excellent English so that it was easy to ask questions and make conversation. We would highly recommend.

Fantastic tour! - Fantastic and informative tour, lots of opportunities to ask questions and you get to see pretty much the whole city. It was a small group (4 people + 1 guide) so the car was a bit of a squeeze. But altogether a fantastic way to spend an afternoon in Sarajevo

An experience you won’t forget! - If you plan to do a tour, do it with Adis! :) - I had an amazing experience on the Sarajevo city tour! Our guide was very charismatic and made the entire experience both engaging and enjoyable. His deep knowledge of Sarajevo’s history brought the city to life, and he shared fascinating stories that I would have never discovered on my own. I highly recommend his tour to anyone visiting Sarajevo – it’s an experience you won’t forget!

Highly recommended tour to understand the Siege - Super interesting and helpful to understand the history of Sarajevo starting from the end of 'Tito era' to today. 3 hours of full history that flew by. Also very well organized and I liked the idea of being in a small group (4 people).

The best guide - We booked the tour after taking Adis' free walking tour and admiring his style and his professionalism. This tour was even richer. We learned so much about the historic events and Adis had answers for every question. He is very skilled and knows perfectly the history of the region and the Balkans. Thank you so much for this tour

Adis is the best - Adis was such a great guide we did the walking tour with him and he was so knowledgeable. The next day we did a tour in his car around Sarajevo and saw the tunnel that was built during the war. Overall such an amazing experience getting information from a true local. Thanks Adis
