We spent 13 days in Greece and 5 Balkan countries in May. Overall, the trip was magnificient.
Throughout our tour we were accompanied by our tour guide, Senad. He has a jovial personality which was very helpful in breaking the ice when travelling in a group of strangers. Very respectful, patient, caring and very accomodating to our needs.
Bosnia in particular is a beautiful country to visit such as the beautiful and historical Dervish house in Tekija, Blagaj. Along the road we were enchanted by the view of the sunny skies and blue Neretva river. Shopping at Mostar is great place to buy souvenirs. We visited the Tunel of Spasa to understand the hardship of the war in Sarajevo in the 90’s. Thats just to name a few of the wonderful places we visited.
