You’re about to immerse yourself in the centuries-old history of Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It’s an amazing city of contrasts, where an ancient Ottoman past blends with Austro-Hungarian culture and Balkan traditions. An Orthodox church stands next to a mosque and a Catholic cathedral. A Turkish market is located right next to trendy European boutiques! National restaurants harmonize with modern fast-food joints. During our two-day tour to Sarajevo from Montenegro, we’ll drive through three picturesque canyons and stop for lunch in charming Mostar. Our Sarajevo tour from Montenegro is a great way to get to know the city, see its sights, and feel its spirit and atmosphere.

DAY 1

• Sarajevo: The Road to Sarajevo

Along the way, you’ll encounter incredible mountain landscapes, the beauty of Lake Piva, and the Drina River canyon. We’ll stop in the town of Plužine, located on the shore of one of the world’s highest artificial reservoirs. Here you can grab a snack and take amazing souvenir photos. To get the most out of it, we recommend taking a thrilling zip-line ride across the entire lake.

• Sarajevo: Historic Center

As part of our Sarajevo tour, we’ve prepared a fascinating route through the most interesting historical sites. You simply can’t miss them. Immediately upon arrival, our guide will arrange lunch at the iconic national restaurant Inat Kuća. Then we’ll check into a historic hotel in the city center and head out for a walk. During our stroll, we’ll discuss national traditions, local legends, history, and the lives of prominent figures.

• Sarajevo: Baščaršija District

Our walk begins in the most authentic district, Baščaršija. It has existed since the city’s founding, making it Sarajevo’s main historical center. Although the district is quite small, it exudes a true Ottoman flavor. Local cafes serve excellent doner! Coffee shops beckon with the aroma of Turkish coffee. Hookah lounges promise a relaxing break on plush cushions. Antique and souvenir shops are scattered everywhere, with mosques rising among them. The symbol of this district is the ancient wooden fountain, Sebilj.

• Sarajevo: Yellow Bastion

We’ll have the opportunity to view Sarajevo from the height of the Yellow Bastion. The bastion gets its name from the color of the stone it’s built from. This is the best viewpoint for panoramic photos of the city. In summer, there’s a cafe here.

• Sarajevo: Spiritual Life

Next on our agenda, we’ll see Sarajevo’s main sanctuaries. We’ll start with the main and largest mosque in Bosnia and Herzegovina – the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque. It was named in honor of the successor to the Sultan of the Bosnian Sanjak. The mosque was built in the likeness of Hagia Sophia (Istanbul), but at the last moment, the architect changed the building’s proportions, making the interior much brighter.

The Emperor’s Mosque (15th-16th centuries), also known as the Imperial Mosque, is considered the oldest in Sarajevo. Although its exterior is quite modest and simple, inside it is richly decorated with paintings, stone carvings, and mosaics. The backyard was designated for the burial of many sheikhs and prominent Muslim figures.

Behind a high stone fence hides the Old Orthodox Church (14th-15th centuries). It is believed that the fence was a mandatory condition for its existence during Ottoman times. Local authorities allowed the church to live its own life but insisted on building a fence so it wouldn’t attract attention. The church’s internal structure, as well as the iconostasis of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel, are very interesting.

The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is a symbol of Sarajevo and the country’s main Catholic cathedral. The cathedral impresses not only with its majestic exterior but also with its interior decoration. The stained-glass windows, preserved to this day, are particularly striking in their beauty.

• Sarajevo: Latin Bridge

A must-see on the Sarajevo tour from Montenegro is the Latin Bridge and the Sarajevo Museum. These places are directly connected to the sensational assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. As you know, this event sparked the beginning of World War I. Currently, a small museum houses an exhibition dedicated to that period.

Strolling through narrow ancient streets, we’ll find ourselves at the very spot where Eastern and Western cultures meet. This line divides the Turkish part of the city from the Austro-Hungarian part.

• Sarajevo: Evening

The Sarajevo tour is over, but that’s no reason to say goodbye to your guide and return to the hotel. After all, the best way to get to know a city is to wander its streets independently and observe the modern life of its citizens. We’ll help you find the best places to eat, drink delicious coffee, try local desserts, and explore the city in the evening.

DAY 2

• Sarajevo: Free Time

You can dedicate the first half of the day to visiting museums and art galleries. The city has 22 museums, among which are particularly noteworthy: the War Childhood Museum, the Museum of Crimes Against Humanity and Genocide 1992-1995, the Jewish Museum, the Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Museum dedicated to the 1984 Olympic Games, and the ‘Tunnel of Hope’ Museum.

• Sarajevo: Shopping

And what’s a Sarajevo tour without shopping? There are many shopping streets where you can immerse yourself in a world of magnificent purchases. In the eastern part of the city, you’ll find many souvenir shops and oriental sweets stores. The central Baščaršija district is overflowing with jewelry stalls. And the European part of the city is vibrant with the bright window displays of small fashion boutiques and large stores of famous brands. Prices here are low, especially during sales. Stores display their newest collections, making Sarajevo a paradise for good shoppers.

• Sarajevo: Neretva Canyon

As we leave, charming panoramas of hills and small rivers unfold. Our route passes through the colorful Jablanica Lake, as well as the elongated canyon of the Neretva River, where one of the largest battles of the Yugoslav War took place.

• Sarajevo: Mostar and the Old Bridge

Mostar is a two-hour drive from Sarajevo. This city has its unique history and architecture unchanged since ancient times. The main attraction is the Old Bridge – a UNESCO World Heritage site. Next to the bridge are numerous national restaurants. We’ll take a lunch break in one of them. After our meal and a walk around the city, we’ll head back to Montenegro.

It’s easy to fall in love with this country in just two days! Bosnia and Herzegovina isn’t your typical tourist destination, which is why it has preserved its unique identity and untouched paradisiacal spots. We’ve also designed a magnificent private convertible tour to Bosnia! As part of this program, we’ll take an amazing tour of mysterious Mostar. We’ll visit the heavenly Kravice Waterfalls and the fantastic river in the village of Blagaj. We’ll descend into the mystical Vjetrenica Cave and taste excellent wine from the Tvrdoš Monastery! Book your tours and embark on a journey with the friendly team of My Montenegro Club, dear friends!

We can always slightly adjust the route to suit your tastes and interests.
