Amazing experience - The whole experience was amazing. Firstly we were picked up from Mostar which is a 2 hour drive to Sarajevo. Our guide Adis was extremely interesting and informative about his experiences during the war. We chatted all the way there. He showed us the Tunnel of Hope and relayed his personal experience of what it was like during the seige. We also visited the Olympic Bobsleigh track as well as amazing scenery and in depth information every step of the way. Our guide for the walking tour was Enes. He was also very informative and humorous, so kept us entertained. Finally, we were welcomed at the office by Mina and Asim, who made sure we got back to the station in good time. They were also chatty and made sure our experience was amazing. Mina also followed up with a message making sure we got back to the hotel ok.

Feeling part of history - Feeling intensely involved in a tragedy that as a young man I only followed from a distance as an observer, is something that brings strong emotions. With my guide Adis, I experienced all the planned stages through the eyes of a veteran who actively participated in the resistance and is therefore able to convey to you the drama of the siege of Sarajevo and ultimately the absurdity of war in general in a realistic and participatory manner.

Fantastic tour with Adisb - We took the Bosnian & Yugoslav Wars Tour with Tunnel Museum tour through Dream Balkans Travel with Adis as our tour guide. He is a veteran of the war, and his memories alone were worth the cost of the tour. His memories of using the Tunnel of Hope / Tunnel of Life during the war brought that part of the tour vividly to life. He added important details to our visit to the Olympic bobsled track and explained how Serbian forces encircled the city to begin the siege. We highly recommend the tour, especially if Adis is your guide. His English-language skills are also excellent. Mina offered a pleasant introduction to the tour and handled the initial details well.

Adnan os the best tour guide ever! - The tour exceeded all my expectations. Adnan is, without a doubt, one of the most knowledgeable guides I have ever met. Not only did he share his knowledge and experience with me, but he also made the day we spent together unforgettable. The same goes for Ahmed—he provided me with valuable and accurate information, and I have no doubt that he will be a great tour guide as well. This has been the best travel experience I’ve ever had, and I’ve visited many cities. From the very first moment, I felt welcomed and well taken care of, and every detail was perfectly organized. I truly appreciate the effort and passion they put into their work, and I will definitely recommend this experience to other travelers. I am very grateful for everything. Thank you again for making this study-tour so special! 😊

An Engaging and Insightful Experience with Enes: Highly Recommended! - I had the pleasure of interacting with Enes, and I must say he was absolutely brilliant. His depth of historical and political knowledge is impressive and, while it might be a lot to take in at times, it’s certainly not a bad thing. Enes is very friendly, and his approach is both informative and engaging. As he rightly pointed out, some things must be said, and I appreciated the thoroughness with which he shared his insights. Overall, an excellent experience—highly recommended!

Amazing tour with Enes - It was a great tour, and our guide Enes was a native and narrative. We visited all the historical places to be seen in a very successful narrative. It was very precious to hear the history of these places from someone who lived in the time. Superi is to be able to visit the lands where my ancestors came with a detailed narrative. If you want to come to Bosnia and take a tour, you will never regret to communicate with Enes. Thank you very much for everything

Kept you engaged and refreshed - I don't usually do well with tours but this one turned out to be the highlight of my Sarajevo trip. I was able to become interested enough to both ask questions and listen to what the guide had to say. He drove us, me and one other traveler, to several vantage points across the city, as well as openly shared with us his personal take on the war for example. The lady working at the office was also convivial; Zuzy I think that's what her name is. It was overall a pleasant experience. The only downside was that it came as a surprise that the ticket to the tunnel was not included.
