This tour is a must! - What an emotional, educational and stirring tour. Safet Begic was an excellent guide and we highly recommend him. Knowledgeable and compassionate, he shared with us the tragic history of his beloved country. This was a tour we will definitely remember. Other positives were the drive through the beautiful mountainous terrain and stopping for lunch to savor local cuisine.
