Kenan was an amazing tour guide! He drove very safely during the tour, especially when it was foggy out. He was very knowledgeable and personable. We had so much fun taking pictures and hearing about the history of Bosnia, the sites we visited, and the different cultures. Bosnia Herzegovina is truly a hidden gem of the world! I will be recommending this tour to all my friends and family. He went above and beyond for any request to visit a store. He provided delicious sandwiches, took pictures for us, and honestly was one of the best tour guides we have ever had. We also taught him a thing or two about mallards. It was such an amazing experience and beautiful country! He explained the history and culture very clearly. Thank you for having us!

Ivo, our guide was knowledgeable and professional. As a private tour, he tried to accommodate our needs as much as the schedule allows and answered our questions (not only about the specifics of the areas we travelled together but in general about Croatia and histories with the neighbouring countries). All the places in Bosnia & Herzegovina we've visited in this trip were beautiful and interesting. Well worth the visit, and highly recommend Ivo and his tour agency. Thanks for making our trip comfortable and memorable!

Ibrahim was a fantastic driver and even better guide! He speaks multiple language and his English is great! He was very knowledgeable about his country of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We visited Mostar with a great guided tour, plus a waterfall, and Gervish monastery. And he was a very safe driver! We highly recommend Get your Guide and especially Ibrahim.

Dee guide was very professional and very organized. Everything went perfectly. The sights were worth every penny. I highly recommend this activity to everyone. Would book again and again!

A fantastic guide who was so informative and interesting. Mostar is a great place to visit. A great day out
