Highly recommend Miho - Miho was our guide to a day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik. I would highly recommend using this tour company and Miho. Everything thing was perfect from the moment we met Miho and got into the super clean car. Everything about Miho and the quality of the information he provided was top notch. He is instantly likable and presents the information in a way that is easy to understand. I also enjoyed hearing about life in Croatia. It was our honor to spend the day with you.

Miho and Mostar - We just came from a tour of Croatia with Trafalgar where our tour guide clearly explained the Yugoslav Wars. We thought the Mostar and Herzegovina/Medjugorje tour with Doria Ltd. will complement the Croatian trip well. That was an understatement.
Miho, our tour guide to Mostar, turned out to be a member of the Special Forces who fought to get 2/3 of Croatia back from Serbia in just 4 days! How the Croats did that is being studied in top military schools worldwide! His stories made all the history I learned come alive! Apart from being precise and on time, Miho also took care of us. When I text him that we are on our way to the van/meeting point earlier than usual, he'd go to the van ahead of us to turn the air condition on.
Thank you Miho for your service and for showing us the best of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina!

Great day trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina! - This was a great day trip to some beautiful places in Bosnia and Herzegovina! Unfortunately I did not catch the name of our guide, but he was nonetheless amazing. He had some great information about the places we went to, and provided insight into the life around the war for independence there. Our group also wanted to make a stop in Medugorje, and he was very accommodating for this (we went there instead of Blagaj). We never felt rushed at each stop and were able to see most everything we wanted. He recommended a local restaurant in Mostar that was delicious! I wish we had had more time to explore this beautiful country, but if you only have a day to see it, this is an ideal trip!

Mostar not tobe missed - Our driver Kristina called us in advance advising of arrival time.
She was professional throughout but conversation was so easy made the day so enjoyable.
Mostar is a not tobe missed destination if you have any interest in the history of this region .
Kristina gave us recommendations where to go and best places to eat in our free time .
Would certainly recommend Doria Tours and especially Kristina for the way she arranged the day and the flexibility with times at the various locations we visited.

Outstanding Wine Tour with Mijo! - We had a great all-day experience on this tour. Our guide, Mijo, was outstanding. His English was exceptional and the history he shared, both personal and about the countries was intriguing. We stopped at three wineries and the last one was so great we even purchased wine and olive oil despite not wanting to check our luggage. A MUST-DO!

Highly recommend this day trip! Fantastic mix of culture and great food - This was an incredible tour and a very professional tour agency. I would recommend using them for your time in Dubrovnik! They picked us up at the hotel and created a memorable day for us. Our guide Ivo was fantastic and there was a new guide learning the ropes with us that day. We were fortunate to have 2 different people to share stories with us. It was a mix of history, beautiful views and great food. It was worth every penny! We started with a quick stop in Ston and then drove to Kravice waterfalls, which was stunning. We saw so many things in a short time! Stopped in this really interesting village of Caplijina and then had the best lunch of our entire trip in Mostar!
Each part of the trip, I thought that it couldn't get better and yet it did! Ivo was a fantastic guide. This country has such an interesting mix of history and cultures. We ended up taking 2 tours with Dubrovnik Day tours and getting an airport transfer, too. From Josip in the main office answering my many questions to Milli to/from the airport to the guides, using this agency was the best money I spent on our trip! I also highly recommend the private tour because it was tailored to our interests and time.

Great Trip to Bosnia & Herzegovina (Medjugorje, Pocitelj & Mostar) - My husband and I had a wonderful private tour with Filip at Dubrovnik Day Tours. Filip is very concientious and his main priority was making the trip the best it could be for us. He is very knowledgable, friendly, flexible and a safe driver. We learned so much about Croatia and Bosnia. He gave us great recommendations for places to eat and things to do in each city we visited. He also gave us some great ideas for the other days we were going to be in Croatia. Highly recommend.

Very enjoyable Trip - We booked a full day private tour to Kravica & Mostar. It was a fabulous day with sun, beautiful scenery, history and the most knowledgeable guide Ivo. From the minute he picked us up he was courteous, friendly and very committed to making sure we were happy with our trip. We are very interested in learning about the local culture and history, Ivo was a fantastic source of information. We visited Pocitelj and Kravica on the way to Mostar and he accompanied us on both sites detailing the history and best way to see the sites. In Mostar also Ivo guided us on what to see, lunch recommendations and shopping! We had plenty of time to ourselves also and we did not feel rushed at all. We even got some hisotorical reading recommendations .
We also booked airport taxi transfers with this company and again a prompt and courteous driver who was also very friendly with tips and info for our vacation.
We would have no problem highly recommending this company.
