Sarajevo war tunnel experience - We added this tour as an extra from our trip. Our group of 7 were taken to see the war tunnel. Safety , our guide was excellent. His knowledge and experience of living through the seige of sarajevo was incisive and touching. We all came away with a good knowledge of something we only saw on TV in the 90's. Thank you, and keep up the good work.

Moving tribute to Sarajevo's ingenuity - This was a very moving and enlightening tour. Our guide shared his personal experience of life during the siege of Sarajevo as well as provided a wide-ranging and well-articulated history. It was well organised and I would recommend this as a way to better understand one of the tragic periods of Balkan history.
