About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- mercurion20250 contributionsA must for history buffsA moving and insightful tour of Sarajevo. From its diverse history to significant landmarks, the guide's personal touch made this a deep, meaningful experience.Written February 3, 2025
- BonnieLF0 contributionsExcellent tour of Jewish sites and introduction to Old Town SarajevoOur guide, Fariz, was so informative and well-versed on the city, the religious aspects of Sarajevo's history, and the cultural aspects of Sarajevo now. He is Muslim but had studied the Jewish history of his city very well. We also enjoyed talking to him about living in Bosnia now as a 20-something Muslim. The tour was very comprehensive and with 4 hours we were able to cover all the Jewish sites, but also had time to point out many important sites in the Old Town area so we could go back and appreciate on our own later.Written January 25, 2025
- pilarpP1985EB0 contributionsVisit Bosnia with a guide called SafetI went on a tour with one specialised guide called Safet. He is such a cool person to spend the day visiting Bosnia. He is patiente, and knows a lot about the places; but he also has such an interesting conversation about other million topics, like art or culture Time flew and I wished when it finished that I could stay longer in the country. Maybe even think to come back soon for a longer period and visiting other places, and knowing more about the war. I was a child when the War started but I remember it so vividly. Safet is my age and spending a day with someone my age that survived the war , made the experience more unique.Written January 6, 2025

- Anastasija P0 contributions👍🏽👍🏽The War Tunnel Tour in Sarajevo was incredibly moving and informative. Our guide gave us a powerful, personal account of the city’s history during the Bosnian War, and the tunnel itself is a remarkable piece of history. It was both educational and emotional, offering a deep insight into the resilience of the people of Sarajevo. A must-see for anyone visiting the city. Highly recommended!Written November 9, 2024

- gazza1100 contributionsCable car ride to save walking up the mountain.Nice 10 mins trip to the top of the mountain for good views of the city below. Cafe with terrace for views was reasonably priced. Small information board inside the cable car terminal with some background reading of wildlife living in the mountains. Hiking trails available. Probably the most expensive attraction in Sarajevo but worth it.Written October 18, 2024
- jseddo0 contributionsFantastic way to navigate SarajevoDenis was a fantastic tour guide who showed me some hidden gem eateries within Sarajevo. I was shows some amazing places with a mix of fantastic foods. I would highly recommend.Written October 16, 2024
- Fearless616222134910 contributionsGREAT TOUR AND TOUR GUIDEWe did the tour with Merjem today and it was great! She knows a lot and explained everything very well. Very kind and interesting, I would 100% recommend the tour.Written October 5, 2024
- brunb20170 contributionsVery good experience with a spectacular guideWe have gone to Srebrenica for study reasons, and we hired the company for the simple fact that going during the day is difficult due to the availability of public transport and the time it takes. We had a guide called Emina Koso Sarajcic (I think is spelled this way). The truth is that his knowledge on the subject was an immense surprise, given that we are history teachers, and we really did not expect so much capacity and wisdom about the massacre, the monuments, and the small and interesting stories that she gave us from the moment we got into the car. It was a very pleasant trip, and we were surprised by her ability to communicate complicated things in a simple and appropriate way. Furthermore, his commitment and attention to the needs of the group was spectacular. I don't usually do reviews on guides, but in this case, it is an obligation because of how much we learned and how comfortable we were. I highly recommend a guide of such quality.Written September 18, 2024

I work a lot with Insider, but our guide, Hana, was by far the best and I had to write a review. She is young but knowledgeable, she talks with passion and has an answer to all the questions. I would recommend Insider to anyone who wants to learn about Bosnian culture a d history.

Our guide was Dennis, a young Bosnian man with excellent English. He digs into history, starts with the Congress of Berlin (1878) and its aftermath. We often confuse the Congress of Berlin, which divided the Balkan Peninsula, with the Berlin Conference of 1984, which divided Africa --- talking about the importance of the Congress of Berlin at the beginning of the tour was a good refresher in world history. After the tour, Dennis took us to the south side of the river where a mosque and a Franciscan church stand side by side, and the oldest beer brewery right next to it. I had the beer from the same brewery at the airport that afternoon, and my fond memories of Sarajevo was fortified with the tour.
