  A varied and enjoyable trip encompassing the Montegrian coastline, national parks plus the two key cities of Bosnia/Herzegovina : Sarajevo & Mostar and ending up in Dubrovnik. The balance of coast/nature/city was great with no really long drives. We lucked out and benefited from two excellent and extremely knowledgeable tour leaders (one was learning the itinerary for a future trip). Learning and seeing first hand about the ravages of the recent conflicts was both facinating and moving.      What was the most inspirational moment of your trip? The crystal alpine Black Lake in Durmitor National Park and the walk & lunch at Lukomir, Bosnia's highest village. The contrasts of Sarajevo from the chilled Otoman influenced cafe culture; war damaged buildings; communist era trams; the war tunnel museum and great baklava.   What did you think of your group leader? We lucked out and benefited from two excellent and extremely knowledgeable tour leaders (one was learning the itinerary for a future trip). Anaidt was an infectiously enthusiastic history student and able to provide the historial insight. Alen was a mountaineer and snowboarder so great in the mountains. Both were great travelling companions and dealt extremely well with water born illness which struck down half the group event though they themselves were also affected by the bug.     Do you have any advice for potential travellers? Bear in mind that you are crossing lot's of boarders (mostly very smoothly and quickly) including an unexpected crossing at the beginning of the trip where you cross somewhat unnecessarily from Croatia into Bosnia and then into Montenegro - rather than from Croatia direct into Montenegro which the trip notes don't mention. All the hotels were of pretty good quality. The hotel in Sarajevo is the best on the trip but located about 5 km from the city centre - although very easy to get in by tram.      Is there anything else you would like to add? Exodus should include a visit to Tito's bunker in Konjic which is located on the drive from Mostar to Dubrovnik.  Show more

  A hugely enjoyable holiday - really varied and interesting and relaxingg. From the historic towns, to the natural scenery.....to war backdrop and religious landmarks...and a fantasic guide and welcoming locals. Highly recommended! What was the most inspirational moment of your trip? - lunch cooked at a local villager's place, absolutely the best food we had will long live in the memory- the natural beauty of the endless, gorgeous scenery- diving into Sarajevo, the deeper we got, the better is was  What did you think of your group leader? Anaid was superb - everything you would want from a guide: - hugely knowledgeable - fun and interesting - made the trip exciting yet comfortable  Do you have any advice for potential travellers? bring a sunhat, a jumper, mossie cream, and swimming costume Is there anything else you would like to add? this holiday was 10 or so days....it felt like at least 2 weeks. BUT....as we had not visited Dubrovnich before, we were jealous of those that had decided to stay a day or so more as the trip covers just an evening there.Other than that, this is a hugely rewarding holiday with great value for money and a something fascinating around every corner! Ben & Carly Show more
