Description

A scenic route across the border takes you through some picturesque villages of rural Bosnia and Herzegovina as you approach the fantastic little city - of Po?itelj. This small medieval town was built on a rocky cliff on the Neretva River, and it gives an excellent overview of the Ottoman Empire and the effect of the eastern culture on the small town in this zone. Po?itelj is a mixture of Oriental and Mediterranean construction styles that gives this town a particular dimension. Po?itelj is mentioned for the first time in writing in 1444 as the seat of the parish. The art colony, which contains approximately 2 000 artworks, is continuously exhibited at the gallery.
The most impressive building is the Hadji-Alijina mosque dating back to the first half of the 16th century, which dominates the town. After the short sightseeing, taste the Turkish coffee prepared by the original recipe.

Later, enjoy a short ride to Mostar - a city from the past, the point of connection between the western world and the exotic eastern culture. Explore the city with a local guide and listen to all the hypnotizing historical anecdotes. You’ll find yourself mesmerized at the sight of the famous Stari Most (Old Bridge) - a majestic stone arch above the Neretva River, connecting two medieval towers and giving the city a widely recognizable visual identity. Here you can testify to a kind spectacle performed specially for the city’s visitors - young locals showing off in their daredevil stunts, throwing themselves off the twenty meters high Old Bridge into the icy water of the Neretva River. Mind you; not anyone can perform these acrobatic tricks! There’s a unique crash course you would need to pay and attend before anyone lets you jump into the river from that height. So relax and enjoy while professionals do it the best way they can!

Cross over the bridge to check out the Ottoman quarter, which has been attractively restored after the war in the nineties. Check out the old Bazar and the Mosque, and next enjoy exploring the city on your own after the walking tour with a local guide. This city will inspire you with its oriental structured streets and buildings, friendly people, tasty food, and a distinctive coffee culture that might remind you of Turkey. So make the most of your free time here in Mostar to sit back and relax on one of the terraces, try out traditional food or explore the immense line of souvenir shops to bring back home some unique oriental-looking-like souvenirs.

The ride back to Split leads you through the rocky landscapes of Herzegovina to the fantastic natural wonder known as Kravica Waterfall, where you can enjoy the amazing landscapes and perhaps even jump into the river’s refreshing waters to cool down. Kravica waterfalls are one of the most beautiful natural sites in the Herzegovinian region of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The area contains greenery with chaste trees, poplars, and figs. This is a perfect spot where you can enjoy untouched nature, even protected by the government.
After arriving in Split or Trogir, you will be dropped off at the same place where you were picked up in the morning.

Casi perfecto

Lo disfrutamos mucho, aunque hay cosas por mejorar. Split fue una sorpresa, no estaba en nuestros planes. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. Aprendimos más de la ciudad en unas horas que leyendo tres guías. Me hubiera gustado un poco más de tiempo en la última parada.

Faria de novo, mas mudaria algumas coisas. A parada em Burek foi o que mais gostamos. A organização era visível, nada improvisado. Muito bom para uma primeira vez na cidade. Guia correto, mas o microfone falhava de vez em quando. O áudio cortava em alguns trechos. Boa experiência no balanço geral.

Amazing day

Much better than I had imagined. The insurance arrived exactly when we needed it. The walk up to Mostar was worth every step. We got a clear day at Burek and that was pure luck. More accessible than it looks, you do not need to be fit.

Exactly what we were looking for. I have never seen anything like Burek. The guide told us stories you will not find in any guidebook. The transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle (highway) arrived exactly when we needed it.

Perfect intro to the city

The kind of thing you still remember years later. They emailed all the details the day before, very clear. The guide knew exactly what to include, it never dragged. I have never seen anything like Kravica. We would book again.

Good, with ups and downs. The guide leaned on a script quite a bit, but explained things well. The price is honest for what you get. Photos of Neretva do not do it justice. Only gripe: the group was a bit larger than we expected. Still recommended.
