Traveler reviews
Robert was a Fantastic Guide – Knowledgeable, Patient & Accommodati
Robert was an excellent guide very kind, accommodating, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the tour. He shared so much interesting information and clearly put a lot of effort into making the experience enjoyable for everyone. I only wish the rest of the group had been more attentive at times, as it felt a little disrespectful not listening to him when he was speaking. Despite this, Robert remained patient, professional, and friendly throughout. He also went above and beyond by making four extra pit stops at the request of some group members, while still ensuring we were dropped back on time. Really appreciated his flexibility and positive attitude. Highly recommend!
Mostar was worth the visit. Our Guide, Ado, very knowledgeable on the history of Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina
Guide’s knowledge was great, Mostar amazing. Thought the van may have been a little larger for a private tour and a full day.. Some suggestions to make the tour even better would be for the driver to have a mic as we could not hear all of the commentary in the back of the van and if the guide walked with the group in parts to point out highlights and chat would have been good. Ado was friendly and welcoming.
Medjugorje
This was not Filip ( the tour guide just didn’t have his own card I can’t remember his name ) The tour guide/driver picked me up at hotel and dropped off ( very prompt and courteous). Knew a lot about the trip to Mostar and Medjugorje. The only thing I would change is more than 1 hour at Medjugorje and if the driver could slow the speed down while traveling in the van (he was going very fast and probably not safe with a bunch of passengers) He did slow down when other passengers asked him to. Otherwise I would HIGHLY recommend. The price 85 E was amazing for an entire day trip!
Good trip to Mostar and its famous bridge
The trip to Medjugorje was interesting, but the climb up to the shrine is difficult. Mostar was absolutely worth it. Seeing the famous bridge and the museum telling the story of the bridge and the reconstruction after its destruction in 1993 is absolutely terrific. Our tour guide (Adil) was very informative and did a great job as guide and driver.
Not worth the mo ey.
Trip was another glorified taxi with no actual guiding. Also for my trip we had a number of selfish entitled passengers insistent on making their days great and everyone else’s miserable. The driver could have been stricter for example we met to leave Mostar and drive back and a passenger hadn’t (despite having 2 hours free time seen the bridge) so she wandered off to see it while the rest of us waited another 25 mins - waste of my own time and disrespectful to the group. Overpriced and wouldn’t recommend.
