East meets west in Mostar – a city where minarets and church spires rise above ancient stone houses. You'll cross the border into Bosnia and Herzegovina, and discover sights such as the world-famous Stari Most bridge and the bazaar.

Mostar is a melting pot of cultures and religions. The old town is packed with grand buildings from the Ottoman and Habsburg eras. Historic minarets and imposing cathedrals dot the skyline in the shadow of the 2,000m Mt Velez.

Your guide will lead you around the cobbled old bazaar, a well-preserved traditional Ottoman home and one of the many mosques. You'll have free time in the afternoon. Poke around old craft shops or enjoy lunch overlooking the Insta-perfect Stari Most bridge on the River Neretva. You'll also get to enjoy a Turkish coffee – they make a mean cup in Mostar.

Tui guide was not great. Came across quite bored and not very interested. Kept talking about getting tips. The tour guide in Mostar however was brilliant. Could not rate him enough. Very knowledgeable and very engaging. The views of the town and the bridge were excellent.

The day was extremely long we were on a coach by 7 am then transferred to another after an hour . Then travelled for a further 2 hours . We had the tour the guide was friendly and informative . However there was a lot of waiting around and by the time we got to try the coffee and then free time for the small village , it left us just 1.5 hrs to have lunch explore and get to the coach ! Was way not long enough ! The monstar is beautiful very crowded but the day is basically on a coach

The cultural differences were very evident. The journey is long and the city very hot. The border crossing ialwsts inconsistent in time at the border. We had the added mis-fortune that our driver had forgotten to take his identity pass with him resulting in over two hours waiting for his son to bring the identification from Dubrovnic. The city is very hot and a popular destination. Our guide was informative. We were due to visit a mosque however we only saw the outside.

Sanya and Ameni, our group and local guides were excellent. Informative entertaining and educational. The town of Mostar was incredible with its mix of cultures and history. We were lucky with the border crossings and so had extra time to view the town, and to take the river boat trip, which was great and cooling. The stop on the return trip was worth it weight for the cooling pomegranate juice

Really great trip, with all the photo stops really adding to the experience. In Mostar i don’t think the mosque and house visit are necessary and think most would have preferred to have longer free time. I think the local guide was excellent giving the history of the area, I think it would be enough to give that information and walk through the town, if anything I think the museum would have been a more interesting stop.

Great guide and tour around Mostar. Heavy rain hindered the start of the tour. This meant there was very limited free time. In line with other reviews the stop after Mostar seemed pointless and would have preferred more time at Mostar. The guide on the bus was very knowledgable but gave mixed messages. Fill the green form in, don’t fill it in, then driver said fill it in. The driver said you can’t eat on the bus then guide said when you eat on the bus. !!! Poor communication and grumpy driver !
