Following a seaside breakfast, this morning you will travel east towards the Bosnia and Herzegovina border. After crossing, you will descend down into the valley of the Neretva River, eventually arriving at the City of Bridges: Mostar. You will arrive in Sarajevo in the afternoon, with just enough time to learn briefly about this capital’s contentious past.
Having a walking tour, and understanding beauty of Bosnia and her people, the past and the present will make you feel humble and relax.
Bye bye Sarajevo!
