About this experience
My name is Miran, and over the last 20 years of my life I have guided fellow travelers like you on my famous Enjoy Herzegovina tour. I was born and raised in Mostar, which I consider one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and have since built a hostel and tour business. I have unique insight into the history of my region, a region that both experienced times of prosperity and the horrors of war, a history I feel moved to share with people from across the world.
You will be picked up from my hostel, Hostel Miran, which is just 5 minutes away from the Bus Station, and will be transported in a comfortable and air conditioned minivan. You will see Blagaj Dervish Monastery, Pocitelj Castle and the surrounding area, and of course, the beautiful Kravice Waterfalls. Afterwards, we'll drive up Mountain Fortica with the best views of Mostar and the newly built Sky walking bridge.
Entrance into waterfalls included in price.
Please bring your passport, swimwear and towel.
