A tour guide who knows their stuff can greatly enhance your travel experience. The fact you are even looking at my profile puts you in a category of a "traveler" which makes me a perfect person for you! Travel is my passion and tourism is my profession. I am a citizen of the world, born in Yugoslavia, living in the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Sarajevo is my favourite city in the globe, a place where it all began. A smiling Law School graduate, introduced to tourism by accident. From that point, I did not stop traveling. I even travel in my hometown, traveling through my travelers. Sharing stories, experiences, passion and pain. It all makes a traveling for me. I travel through people. I travel through you! An accidental traveler became one of the highest rated tour guides in Sarajevo. I even became one of the founding fathers of Tourist Guide Association in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Created three highest rated tours in Bosnia and Herzegovina. To be honest it all came natural to me, because I simply love my job! Therefore, if you are looking bespoke tours in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Balkans, you are at the right address. I am all about being submerged in the culture, meeting the locals, learning fun and less fun history (yes I mean the recent wars) and in the end having good time. Let's be travel buddies :) • Accredited, certified and official tour guide for Bosnia and Herzegovina • Ekspert travel advisor for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro and Albania • Certified travel agency manager and travel program developer • Self-proclaimed humorist with bad sense of humor :) • Certified Cambrige A-Level International

War in Yugoslavia, and particularly in Bosnia and Herzegovina is one of the most complicated events that happened in modern Europe. In Bosnia and Herzegovina war lasted just under four years. It is estimated that more than 100. 000 people lost their life. Sarajevo the capital was under the siege for 1425 days! How it was possible to have such a bloody war in a cosmopolitan country like Bosnia and Herzegovina? What are the events that lead to the longest modern siege of one European capital? What was the role of United Nations and why did they allow bloodshed for such a long period of time. Who are Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats? Who stopped the war? Bosnia and Herzegovina today? Those are some of the questions that this tour will answer but that is not all! What makes this educational tour unique is my own experience. A young boy under the sky of fire that was forced to leave his home. We survived the war, can we survive the peace?
