We're bringing another Exciting Trip
We’re back with another group trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina! This time around, we want to show you the beauty of this country on our new itinerary: The Summer Edition. This is one of our favorite countries in the world and the one that inspired us to run tours.
Enjoy the Adventure
Bosnia offers breathtaking nature, historic towns, and an incredible mix of cultures that is not commonly found around the world. However, it wouldn’t be possible to visit this beautiful country without learning about the Bosnian Genocide which lasted from 1992-1995.
Through this partnership, we have combined the best of fun and education. It is being led by Our World Too, an organisation dedicated to changing the way we perceive refugees. Together, we’ve created this Hybrid Tour to bring you the best of both worlds - the opportunity to immerse yourself in the history, culture and tourist highlights of Bosnia and Herzegovina while also visiting sites such as the Srebrenica Memorial Museum and learning more about the war from survivors – people who have LIVED through history.
If you’re looking to visit a lesser-known destination in Europe, travel in a completely different way, get to meet new people and immerse yourself in a new culture, then come and join us!
Bosnia: The Summer Edition
- Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
The trip to Bosnia was one of my favorite experiences ever. I got to explore the country, its diverse people, complicated history, and delicious food so well within just a few days. You will meet people who went through unspeakable pain but you will also get to relax and laugh lots along the way. The incredible and loving people who organise the trip are dedicated to the fullest and it feels more like you’re hanging out with old friends! Don’t think too much just sign up, it’s worth every penny!
