Full Day Private Tour to Montenegro, Mostar, Split and Sarajevo

Mostar Old Bridge

2 hours

The Old Bridge was recently rebuilt and many of the edifices in the Old Town have been restored or rebuilt with the contribution of an international scientific committee established by UNESCO. The Old Bridge area, with its pre-Ottoman, eastern Ottoman, Mediterranean and western European architectural features, is an outstanding example of a multicultural urban settlement. The reconstructed Old Bridge and Old City of Mostar is a symbol of reconciliation, international co-operation and of the coexistence of diverse cultural, ethnic and religious communities.

City Walls

2 hours

The 4.5 km long Kotor city walls surround the old town of Kotor, from the sea level up to 250m high to the fortress of San Giovanni (St John). Their thickness changes from 2m to 16m, height of some parts are 20m. Some parts of the Kotor city walls were built during the Byzantines but the current walls mostly date back to 17th and 18th century, the time of Venetians.

Palazzo di Diocleziano

2 hours

Diocletian Palace is one of the best preserved monuments of the Roman architecture in the world. The Emperor's Palace was built as a combination of a luxury villa - summer house and a Roman military camp (castrum), divided into four parts with two main streets. Southern part of the Palace was, in this scheme, intended for the Emperor's apartment and appropriate governmental and religious ceremonies, while the north part was for the Imperial guard - the military, servants, storage etc. The Palace is a rectangular building (approximately 215 x 180 meters) with four large towers at the corners, doors on each of the four sides and four small towers on the walls. The lower part of the walls has no openings, while the upper floor is open with a monumental porch on the south and halls with grand arch windows on the other three sides. Over the centuries the Palace inhabitants, and later also the citizens of Split adapted parts of the palace for their own requirements.

Bascarsija

2 hours

A visit to Sarajevo should start with Baščaršija, the old part of town. At its heart is Sebilj, a pseudo-Moorish fountain which is one of the city’s most recognizable symbols. Brusa Bezistan Museum provides an overview of the city’s history and is housed in an old covered bazaar. Other options include Husrev-Bey’s Mosque and the Old Synagogue (now a Jewish Museum). Time permitting, Svrzo’s House is another must-see; with its quiet garden and traditional architecture, the house shows how a wealthy Muslim family lived in Sarajevo during Ottoman times. Another attraction is Despić’s House, not far from Hotel Europe. This museum offers a look inside a wealthy Serbian Orthodox family’s home. Performances were put on here before the National Theater opened. Be sure not to miss a single spot in town where East and West meet, including Vijećnica – a symbol of the meeting of civilizations – which has countless interesting stories to share with visitors.
