Our tour was at 2pm and we were the only ones booked on so a private tour really. Dennis our guide was friendly, funny informative, spoke excellent English. I’m deaf so lip read and my partner signs if I’m unsure about certain phrases or words. I could understand Dennis a lot of the time. The tour took in the main sights of Sarajevo and was very interesting and definitely value for money.

Our guide was very personable, spoke German very well and was very knowledgeable. She answered our questions and requests with confidence and gave us a good insight into the historical background and modern-day Sarajevo. Thank you very much for this excellent tour through this special city. The three hours were not boring for a second!

We took the tour in English with Faris and we couldn't have asked for a better guide. It was the perfect tour to learn about the history of Sarajevo and some hidden corners that we would never have discovered on our own. Thank you!

Informative, easy going and plenty of topics to talk about. Azur was kind, respectful and professional! Recommend he to all. Learned a ton. Thank you Azur!

Our tour guide was very competent and very courteous. We can recommend him without reservation.
