Hello, dear travelers! My name is Edin Ogresevic, and I am a licensed tour guide for Bosnia and Herzegovina. I was born and raised in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina—often called the "Jerusalem of Europe" due to its incredible mix of cultures, religions, and histories. Growing up in this extraordinary city gave me a deep appreciation for its unique character, and it has always been my passion to share its beauty, history, and traditions with the world. A Passion Turned Into a Career Although I hold a degree in economics, my true calling has always been tour guiding. Since 2012, I have dedicated my life to this profession, gaining extensive experience leading various types of tours and working with travelers from all around the globe. One of the most memorable moments of my career was in 2015, when I had the honor of guiding former U.S. President Bill Clinton and meeting Madeleine Albright. This experience was truly inspiring and encouraged me to establish Meet Bosnia Tours, which has grown into one of the leading tour operators in Bosnia and Herzegovina. What to Expect When Touring With Me If you choose me as your guide, you will not just explore Bosnia and Herzegovina—you will experience it. I take great pride in sharing the country's rich history, traditions, and diverse religious heritage, as well as revealing hidden gems that most visitors don’t get to see. Whether you're looking for the best traditional food and coffee, historical landmarks, or personal stories from Sarajevo’s past, I will make sure you leave with unforgettable memories. I am known for being responsible, flexible, and outgoing, ensuring that every tour is engaging, insightful, and tailored to your interests. My goal is for you to experience Bosnia not just as a visitor but as a friend. Professional Credentials I am a licensed tour guide for Bosnia and Herzegovina, certified to provide in-depth historical and cultural tours. Additionally, I hold a special certification in "Jewish Sarajevo", allowing me to offer deeper insights into the Jewish heritage of the city. While I can guide you through every corner of Bosnia and Herzegovina, please note that I am not permitted to conduct tours outside of the country. I look forward to welcoming you to Bosnia and Herzegovina and showing you why this land is so special. Let’s explore together!

Overview of your Sarajevo tour

Srebrenica - a small town in eastern Bosnia, is a place where the worst crimes against humanity and the worst genocide in Europe since World War II happened. It was July 11th, 1995, when the terrible acts of ethnic cleansing started in Srebrenica and continued in a couple of following days when more than 8, 000 people were killed, including children. The tour to Srebrenica is a full-day tour from Sarajevo that will help you understand much better everything that was happening there. The most important part of this tour is the visit to the „Srebrenica-Potocari" Memorial Complex where you will have the opportunity to see many original photos and videos and meet the survivor of the Srebrenica genocide. This trip is certainly something to remember your whole life!
