What people are saying about Višegrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina

The fact that this tour isn't as popular as the others is what intrigued me to begin with. The scenery is outstanding. Andricgrad and Kurstendorf are fascinating projects and definitely worth visiting. The train ride is also a must-see, kind of like time traveling in the past to experience how people used to travel. Visegrad is a beautiful city and the bridge is sureal. The tour guide was as good as can be, friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable and just an overall pleasant down to earth individual. I'm glad I booked and wish to bring some friends along next time!

Kenan was our guide and our driver for the tour to Visigrad. He took us from our hotel in Sarajevo. We were 3 persons. Kenan don't speak much. But he answered every question that we asked him. As a matter of fact , i liked that kind of guidness. what i didn't like about : Kenan is driving too fast. I was expected to get explantions about the history of Visigrad bridge according to the book "the bridge on the Drina", but Kenan didn't know. He came with no serbian money so we had to look for bank or exchane. In total, I liked the tour and Kenan very much.

Not anyone's fault, but the Mokra Gora train broke down half way. The train was full, however, so the (amazing, Kulin) driver could only get us standing seats. I believe it would have been the agency's duty to purchase for us seating tickets in advance

Our guide Ibrahim was very friendly and engaging. Visegrad was nice but the Sargan Railway was a little disappointing as most of the scenic views were obstructed by passing trees although the train do stop for you to take pictures.
