Highly recommended! - We had an excellent Tunnel of Hope tour in Sarajevo with our guide, Safet. He was extremely informative and knowledgeable, answering all of our questions with patience and detail. We learned so much from him—not only about the history of the tunnel and the war, but also about the resilience of the Bosnian people. Safet also gave us wonderful recommendations for local food and cafés, which we really appreciated. This tour is a must-do in Sarajevo, as it’s vital to understand the struggles Bosnia endured in order to truly appreciate its beauty today. We highly recommend taking a tour with Safet!

Incredibly story of human resilience - Nermin is a great tour guide; he bravely shares his experience during the siege but also an objective as possible rendition of the circumstances. The tunnel is an impressive feat of ingenuity and resilience and more people should learn about it.

Must do tour - The tour covered not only a visit to the tunnel but also the siege and how locals coped living in Sarajevo. Our guide was excellent and answered all our questions. I definitely recommend this tour to gain a deeper understanding of the siege of Sarajevo.

Tunnel tour with the greatest guide Safet - I’ve visited Sarajevo with my 15 years old niece. I’ve booked a Hope Tunel Tour from insider agency. With our great guide Safet Begic, this small tour turns into the most remarkable experience of our vocation. I highly recommend you to take tours from Insider. I dont know other guides but I can guarantee you’ll enjoy the tour if your guide would be Safet.

Lack of audio guide - The tour is good for those who speak fluent English. This is not my case, so I did not understand several things I saw on the tour.
