Half-day Sarajevo Private Tour

Dzana is extremely knowledgeable and organized and makes the history of Sarajevo come alive! She picked us up at our hotel to start the tour. Her English is excellent and she is well spoken. Instead of spouting a lot of details, she told us stories so that we remembered the information she provided regarding the history and culture. It was all very interesting! She also gave us some good tips on museums to see and local foods to try at different restaurants. I highly recommend Dzana as a tour guide.

You cannot get just more local than Dzana. She was a child in Sarajevo during the 1990’s war. Her family was extremely active in the defending of Sarajevo and she lost many family members. Her story is so compelling and she patiently answered all of our questions. She gave a fascinating tour. We are grateful to have found her.

Dzana was an outstanding guide for myself and my family, which included two children aged 8 and 12. I rarely do tours, but felt it important to do so in order to get the most out of our limited time in Sarajevo. Dzana was great at providing a mix of activities. We enjoyed trying out Bosnian coffee or salep and stopping to sample traditional baklava. I liked that the tour included an overview of the history of Sarajevo, as well as a deeper focus on more recent events from thirty years ago. We felt lucky to have Dzana as a guide as she was able to relate her own personal experience from that time, as well as her personal connection to the Tunnel of Hope in the latter part of the tour. We all learned so much from the four hours we spent with her, and it was definitely the highlight of our trip around the Balkans. I cannot recommend Dzana enough - she was the perfect guide. Many thanks to her!

Dzana was the perfect person to show us Sarajevo. She provided a customized tour that met our needs for frequent rest stops during the walking portion in Old Town, all the while telling us a great deal about the history of Sarajevo and about the culture. We experienced Bosnian coffee first hand, and learned about the social customs associated with it. We tasted a fabulous Bosnian pastry made from the shop owner’s family recipe. We saw shops and shoppers and learned about the role of various religions in Sarajevo’s history. She had much information and insight to share about those and also the ‘90’s war and shred what she and her family experienced first hand. In the driving portion of the tour we saw the city outside of Old Town, including Sniper’s Alley and the Tunnel of Hope and more. Her car was comfortable and roomy. Dzana kept teaching us about Sarajevo after we parted as she sent multiple recommendations for restaurants serving traditional Bosnian dishes. We highly recommend Dzana to guide you through the City of Sarajevo.

My wife and I had a terrific tour of Sarajevo with Dzana. She is an excellent guide and an even better person. We had a very enjoyable day despite learning of her family’s sacrifices during the area’s war-torn history. Dzana was especially attentive to customizing the tour to our physical disabilities, and we ended the day with delicious burek and baklava. We highly recommend touring with Dzana when in or near Sarajevo. Thanks, Dzana!

A personal tour that went far and beyond my expectations. Dzana combined her detailed historical knowledge about her city and country with vivid personal anecdotes that brought the tour to life. Particularly for those who are interested in the recent history of Sarajevo, I strongly recommend Dzana's tour. She will add color and sounds to those blurry and gray images and recordings you may have seen on your TV screen in the early 90s. I am very pleased to have reserved a personal guided tour with Dzana. I will think of her stories whenever I look back on my visit to this beautiful city.
