Super recommended☺️ - We booked the visit to Srebrenica with Kenan and loved it.☺️ Kenan is an excellent Guide, super friendly, close, generous, and also, although the tour was in English, it was very easy to understand. He gave us a lot of information about the war and genocide, during the trip and also during the visit. It's worth it! I recommend it!

Extremely Knowledgeable Guide - Emir was an excellent guide on this tour to Srebrenica. He had lots of knowledge to share about the history of Bosnia which we appreciated. Although it was an extremely sad visit to Srebrenica, we also learnt so much we didn’t know. A well organised tour and much recommended!

A much needed reminder for us all - very harrowing but deep reminder about a genocide which only happened quite recently and shows us a fraction of the pain and suffering the Bosnians went through, so much history and emotions, we should never forget… just like we shouldn’t forget Palestine right now 🙏

Srebrenica Tour - What a great guy. Fun, energetic and full of information. Thank you for a great time and answering everything question we threw at you! He accommodated all our needs and was so respectful of diversity. If I ever find myself back in Bosnia Herzegovina 🇧🇦 again, I will be sure to use him again. Kashim

Amazing Tour! Very Knowledgeable - This Tour is a great Experience for people who want to gain an insight of the Genocide in Srebrenica. My Tour Guide Kenan was very knowledgeable and showed me around all the places where the massacre took. Its very heartbreaking but worth it for those who want to learn about the Massacre. I Recommend this Tour and would go on many Tours with Adventure in Bosnia

International March for Peace July 8-10 - Every year since 2005, this March has taken place which brings together between 5,000 and 8,000 walkers between Nezuk and Srebrenica: 80 km in 3 days, or 26 km per day. The majority of participants sleep in tents, but our Franco-Swiss group stays with locals with a package of 180 euros for 5 days. The welcome and local cuisine are of high quality. The landscape crossed, with its wooded mountains and rivers, is magnificent and helps to compensate for the tragedy experienced in July 1995: most of the houses have been rebuilt and the fields are cultivated again. There are also many fruit trees. The March has three dimensions: - the memory of the past, including the genocide of July 1995, solidarity with the survivors who have returned to their region since 2000, reflection on the future of this country, where divisions persist, despite the richness of its East-West cultural diversity and its natural resources. The Bosnia Solidarity Association, based in Geneva, organizes with its local partners the logistics of the Franco-Swiss group in July and also organizes discovery trips from the north to the south of the country in spring and autumn, starting with a walk of 4 days from Nezuk towards Srebrenica, but with stages of less than 15 km, also with accommodation with locals. Then visit Sarajevo and the underground labyrinth of Ravne near the Pyramid of the Sun in Visoko. And visit Herzegovina by staying near the old bridge of Mostar at the Almira Hotel, which organizes tours to the Sufi monastery of Blagaj, Stolac and Pocitelj; unforgettable places marked by the Ottoman period.

Great tour, great organisation! - The trip was amazing, although we had mixed feelings. It was nice to see everything and how all of it happened, but it was sad to be confronted by it. I would hundred procent recommend this tour because it gives you a feeling of how everything happened. Also while driving from Sarajevo to Srebrenica our tour guide Amer explained many details about the war, Srebrenica and all kinds of other information. He is a very polite and nice guy, he told us many great things about the country, he even gave us other recommendations to do in the city and gave us a few restaurants that we should try out (they were great). We were going to Srebrenica on a Sunday, and the Memorial Centre is closed on that day. But the Adventure in Bosnia Tour Agency managed to have it opened just for us by one of their contacts who works there. That made our day because that Sunday was our only chance to go to Srebrenica and we really wanted to visit the Memorial Centre as well, so big thumbs up to Kenan from Adventure in Bosnia for doing that for us. And I want to thank Amer for being a great guide that day!

Unbelievable that this could happen after WWII - It's unbelievable this could happen considering the Holocaust of WWII and the role United 'nothing' played in it. Well worth a visit considering it could happen again.

incredibly important and educational - The Srebrenica tour is, as one might expect, a very heavy but incredibly important tour. You get to see the exhibition at the Memorial Center, visit the city of Srebrenica and go to the cemetery. Our guide Ibrahim was very professional and we learned so much about the genocide against the Bosniak population of BiH. It's everyone's responsibility to educate themselves about topics like these so atrocities against humankind on this scale can be prevented. I've had an insightful, emotional and deeply educational time during this tour and can fully recommend it!
