Sarajevo & Mostar done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. No hesitation recommending them.

Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Recommended.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. Good value for what's included.
