Coast to highlands, end to end — a Dubrovnik gateway through Mostar and Trebinje to Sarajevo, then north to the green heart of the country at Jajce. The complete portrait of the country.
Seven days that draw the whole country — sun-warmed Herzegovina, the crossroads city of Sarajevo, and the wild green north most travellers never reach.
Our flagship journey is the complete portrait. You begin on the warm southern edge near Dubrovnik and travel the length of the country: the wine cellars of Trebinje, the bridge at Mostar, the dervish house at Blagaj, the bazaars of Sarajevo, and finally the waterfall town of Jajce and the still green Pliva lakes. Private throughout, with Belma shaping each day around you.
You're met at Dubrovnik and cross into Bosnia within the hour. Your first night is in Trebinje, the sunniest and most southern of Herzegovina's towns, with dinner beneath the plane trees of its old square.
A morning tasting indigenous Žilavka and Blatina in the Tvrdoš monastery and Vukoje cellars, then the drive north through karst and vineyard to Mostar. You arrive in time to see the Stari Most as the evening lamps come on.
A full day in the Neretva valley from your Mostar base — the old bridge at dawn, the dervish house at Blagaj over its turquoise spring, and the Ottoman fortress town of Počitelj. Back in Mostar for a second night.
The beautiful road and rail corridor up the Neretva gorge to Sarajevo, with stops along the way that aren't on any tour. You arrive in the capital by late afternoon and settle in for two nights.
A full day in the city where East and West have met for five centuries — bazaar, synagogue, mosque and cathedral within a few hundred metres — read by a host who takes you past the obvious into its real life. A second night in Sarajevo.
Out of the capital into central Bosnia's green heart, to Jajce — the medieval town where the Pliva river drops in a waterfall right beside the streets. You stay the night here, a complete change of pace from the cities.
A final unhurried morning at the Pliva Lakes just above the town — still green water, wooden watermills, forest quiet — before your private transfer onward to Sarajevo or a Croatian gateway for your flight home.
