Bosna i Hercegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina has proclaimed itself the heart-shaped land that lies at the heart of southeast Europe. This small country is an intense mixture of cultures from the ancient monasteries of the Franciscan and Orthodox monks to the heralded bridges and mosques of the Ottoman Empire creating what can only be described as a ‘living museum’.

Discover Croatia Holidays offers a number of coach tours of Croatia that incorporate either Sarajevo or both Sarajevo and Mostar. Sarajevo is positioned against a backdrop of seemingly endless hills and towering mountains which have in a sense isolated the city creating a timeless world. Sarajevo is one of only a few places in the world that features an orthodox and a catholic church, a mosque and a synagogue within easy walking distance of each other. This alone is representative of the intense diversity found in this city that is also carried through to the architecture, culture and traditions of the place. Mostar is home to the “Old Bridge” which until its collapse in 1993 was a beautiful stone structure that spanned the Neretva River for over four centuries. The recent reconstruction of the bridge has signaled a return to normality and mended the broken hearts of local residence that had and continue to have a strong bond with this symbol of their city.

Apart from our coach tours Discover Croatia Holidays has a number of day tours in Bosnia and Herzegovina to supplement your holiday in Croatia including day tours of Mostar and Medugorije a mountain village where in 1981 the Virgin Mary appeared to six children.
