Mostar, Konjic, Blagaj, Pocitelj and Kravica Falls

 

We journey today from Sarajevo to Herzegovina region, tracing one of Bosnia and Herzegovina's historic and most picturesque routes. Our first destination is the charming city of Konjic, adorned with a beautiful old town and surrounded by majestic mountains, creating a perfect prelude to the wonders ahead.

Next, we arrive at the breathtaking Kravica Falls, the country's most extraordinary waterfall. If the allure of swimming calls to you, feel free to indulge – we won't stand in your way.

Our final gem before returning to Sarajevo is the world-renowned city of Mostar, boasting a UNESCO-listed bridge. A Local Guide will regale us with tales of the Neretva River's impressive bridge and the medieval bridge keepers, which bestowed Mostar its name. Although the 16th-century masterpiece by Sinan, the great Ottoman architect, was tragically destroyed during the war, it has been meticulously reconstructed using ancient techniques. For a unique perspective, opt for a 15-minute boat ride under the bridge and across the river.
