This tour was the highlight of my trip to Sarajevo. A must for anyone who wants to learn more about the fall of Yugoslavia & the - Our guide Almir was amazing. The nicest and most enlightened man you could hope to meet who shared personal stories with us about the war in Bosnia and the siege of Sarajevo - which he fought in. Almir drove us all around the significant parts of Sarajevo relative to the conflict, including the tunnel of hope, and was extremely knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. Definitely recommend this trip!

Very educational tour! - Ago was a great guide. He took me around town, showed me the yellow fortress and around town while explaining the history of the siege and pointed out some main points in the city that were important. We stopped at an old hospital that is still standing and shows the damage. We went to the war tunnel, watched a video and walked through the tunnel. We went to the bobsled track and I was able to hike up the track to the top and take the cable car down. Everything was very easy: scheduling, paying, meeting up with the guide. The tour its self was very enjoyable and informative. All of my questions were answered and I learned so much about the city and the history of the siege.

Excellent tour with valuable personal experience element from guide - We did the free 2-hour walking tour with these guys and it was so good that we immediately booked on this one. Our guide (Ago) was really knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the city. We had visited two museums the day before so had a feel for the historical context of the Yugoslav Wars and their (horrendous) impact on Bosnia and Sarajevo but Ago lived through that time and was able to offer a unique and fascinating personal element to the tour. Really good tour and would highly recommend it.

Everything we could have asked for - great! - Great private tour in a minivan for the 4 of us. Took in the main sights and gave great insight into the history of Bosnia and the struggles of the 1990s. Well worth doing. Tunnel of Hope entry was 20BAMs per adult and they didn’t take credit card just for info.

Brilliant Tour - This was a fantastic tour from start to finish. I served here in the military several times after the seige was lifted and to hear about it from someone who lived through it was eye opening. We even managed yo have a look around Zetra stadium where I was based. I thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Sarajevo.

Excellent Experience! Recommended! - I've joined this tour with my husband. This tour about war of Sarajevo. Our tour guide Ejub İnsanic is very kind and friendly. We've learned many knowledge from him. At the end of the tour, he gave us a piece of paper with the names of restaurants and museums to go to. Thank you Ejub. We've taken this tour March 11. It's rainy day at that day and no one chose this tour, but even though there were only two of us, they still went on the tour. Thanks a lot Meet Bosnia Tours!
