Me and my boyfriend had the chance to go to two different tours held by the great tour guide named Mak - and this was one of them! This tour goes trough the country's history before visiting key sites during the Bosnian War, Ottoman Empire period and Austrian-Hungarian period. One can easily follow Mak's great descriptions, explanations and answers to whatever questions. Highly recommend this tour if you want to understand the history of BiH and at the same time visit interesting places (including panorama photos of the city!)
Thanks to Info Bosnia Tour for not only making this tour a great experience, but also for always being so friendly and answering questions which not always relates to the tour.
Asim was our guide for the day and he gave a great account of the history of Sarajevo in general and in particular the circumstances surrounding the siege of the early 90s. We have been traveling the Balkans for the last 8 weeks and we’re starting to get our heads around this savage and complicated period of conflict. Having visited a lot of museums and reading quite a bit as well as a few tours, Asim was able to give the best explanation of a complex situation. He made everyone feel comfortable asking awkward questions and showed us some great sites that we would have struggled to get to any other way. We went to the Olympic mountains and walked down the now derelict bobsled track, visited the tunnel of hope (amazing stories) drove to castles and military positions, took a look from the snipers positions. Heard and viewed respectfull history of all the ethnic groups making up the Bosniaks and Sarajevans. This is one organised tour worth splashing out on.
I was lucky enough to experience the part of history I hadn't seen before. If you don't know about it, you must learn, if you know all, you must see it for yourself. As well as being really informative, the atmosphere is second to none. Mak is an extremely knowledgeable and friendly tour guide and on top of all, very handsome :)
Sarajevo je najbolje!! <3

We did this tour mainly to see the war tunnel and get to some of ths further out sites for good views. We had already done a couple of walking tours in Sarajevo because we are curious about history. Vedad was a great guide. There were 4 of us on the tour. He quickly worked out how much we knew and were interested in and tailored his conversation to us. It really was like a 4 hour conversation carried out over different places with a knowledgeable local. Vedad has a great manner and despite the seriousness of the content we were able to have a few laughs on the trip. In summary a really well thought out tour that covered heaps of places that are interesting part hard to get to and led by a knowledgeable fun guide.
