Excellent tour - Our guide was superb, we had a very smooth journey through beautiful countryside. He was very knowledgeable and gave a detailed insight into the horrific events of July 1995. We stopped at the town of Srebrenica, the memorial centre and lastly the cemetery. It isn’t possible to say this was a good day out but it is essential that we all remember Srebrenica. We are glad we took the tour and would recommend it to everyone visiting Sarajevo.

Well worth it - The trip was a very somber experience for me because of the atrocities committed against the innocent Bosnians people. Our guide Adnan was very good. He shed a lot of light on what happened. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who’s visiting Bosnia. Thanks Adnan

Group tour with Adnan across time and memory to understand the Genocide of Srebrenica - Beyond the subjectivity and the different thoughts that characterize each person in a place like Srebrenica, I will say that going there was one of the most significant days of my life, so I strongly suggest living this experience to anyone who wants to understand more. For what can be objectively defined, the itinerary is structured perfectly. It provides a way to delve deeper, within the limits of the circumstances, into understanding better the causes and responsibilities that made genocide a reality in Srebrenica starting from the 11th of July 1995.
Finally, I would like to underline that the contribution of our guide, Adnan, was fundamental in helping me understand and process my thoughts during the day: his passion yet rationality in explaining the events demonstrate his very high professionalism and desire to make people understand more, be aware and never forget about what happened.
Remember Srebrenica.

Sobering experience, wonderful scenery. - Wonderful experience! We learned so much about the country's history and current affairs from our driver/tour guide Amir, and from the host at Potocari Memorial Centre. The natural beauty of the alpine forest on the way to Srebrenica was breathtaking. Our tour guide was also very accommodating of our needs.

Impressive tour - Thank you Ago for providing this impressive and instructive tour to Srebrenica.
Every visitor of Sarajevo should book this tour although it won’t be a happy party tour but an touching experience. The atrocities under which the Bosnian people had to suffer should never be forgotten.

A profound experience - The purpose of this tour is not for you to enjoy it in the classic sense of the word. This tour takes you to a sight of heinous atrocities and the memorial and museum do not sugarcoat what happened. However, the tour guide Oga treated everything with seriousness and sympathy and I found it very informative and harrowing at the same time. I believe that everyone should come here.

Sombre yet profound learning experience - I found the Srebrenica tour to be a very sombre yet profound experience.
Our tour guide Argo was very engaging and informative along the way, which was very helpful. The museum we visited was also very educational. Following the tour, I realised that there is a lot of healing that needs to be done. We learnt a lot about the genocide through this tour and we pray for peace and blessings for the people of Bosnia.
