Group Solo Travel in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Travel solo as part of a group tour to Bosnia and Herzegovina
Why travel solo to Bosnia and Herzegovina?
A hidden delight that we’d bet few of your loved ones have experienced; everything about Bosnia, from its rich culture to its dramatic landscapes, feels fresh and undiscovered. Which begs the question, why wouldn’t you travel solo to Bosnia and Herzegovina?
A gem in the heart of the Balkans, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s rich and diverse heritage is evident in Sarajevo, the “Jerusalem of Europe,” where Ottoman mosques, Austro-Hungarian buildings, and modern landmarks coexist. Stroll through Baščaršija, the old bazaar, and visit the Latin Bridge, the site of Archduke Franz Ferdinand’s assassination.
Mostar, with its iconic Stari Most bridge, is another highlight, showcasing the beauty of Ottoman architecture, while nature lovers will be captivated by Bosnia’s dramatic landscapes; think primeval forests, roaring rivers and excellent hiking opportunities.
And how could we not mention the delicious Balkan food, or the warm hospitality of locals who welcome travelers with open arms? If you’re looking for something unique, life-affirming and far, far from the crowded tourist trails of Europe, you can’t do much better than beautiful Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Top places to visit in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Sarajevo
The charming capital of Bosnia is a vibrant city where East meets West. Home to Ottoman bazaars, Austro-Hungarian architecture and landmarks like Baščaršija and the Latin Bridge; Sarajevo showcases a rich, diverse history. Surrounded by mountains, it’s a hub for culture, cuisine, and oozes a palpable historic resilience, promising an authentic Balkan experience, every time.
Mostar
Famed for its iconic 16th-century Stari Most Ottoman bridge arching over the emerald Neretva River, Mostar is a historic city that blends Ottoman and Mediterranean influences, boasting charming cobblestone streets, bustling bazaars, and beautifully preserved architecture. A haven for culture and culinary buffs alike.
Lukomir Village
Chances to experience a truly untouched way of life don’t come around often, which is why Lukomir village is a must-see. Bosnia and Herzegovina’s highest and most remote village, it’s a living testament to traditional mountain life. Perched at 1,495 meters on Bjelašnica Mountain, you can expect breathtaking views of rugged peaks and the Rakitnica Canyon alongside the stone houses with wooden roofs that reflect centuries-old architecture, while its residents maintain a simple, pastoral lifestyle.
Tara River
Part of UNESCO-listed Durmitor National Park, the Tara River, flowing through Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, is renowned for its crystal-clear waters and breathtaking landscapes. Nicknamed the “Tear of Europe,” it carves through the spectacular Tara River Canyon, Europe’s deepest gorge, surrounded by dense forests and dramatic cliffs. It’s a hotspot for adventure seekers, offering world-class white-water rafting, kayaking, and canyoning.
