Mostar & Bosnia Day Trip
• Experience Bosnia-Herzegovina’s most beautiful city
• Swim around and explore the stunning Kravice Waterfalls
• View the iconic ‘Stari Most’ or Old Bridge
• Learn about the deeply entwined and diverse cultures and what happened in the 90s war.
Mostar is a city of contrasts: wide avenues, narrow streets, the traditional Turkish bazaar and Parisian-style boulevards - a city in which the culture and art of the east and west meet.
The most magnificent monument is the Stari Most (Old Bridge), built in 1566. When the Stari Most collapsed after sustained tank shelling in 1993 it was like the heart was ripped out of most Mostar natives. Now, 20 years later, the beautiful stone structure that had spanned the Neretva River for over four centuries once again arches across its enchanting waters. The bridge is Mostar's core and life is slowly but surely returning to normal in the most beautiful city in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
We depart from Split or Dubrovnik and head inland until we reach Kravica, a snapshot of paradise with its waterfalls, waterside bars and rapids. After a swim stop here we continue our drive along the valley to Mostar, “a window to the Orient” and an important trade centre during Turkish rule. A guided tour will show you the town highlights and give the chance to climb a mosque’s minaret!
We leave Mostar late in the afternoon, and are dropped off back in Croatia in the early evening.
