Join us on a Mostar City Tour! Discover the beauty of this historic Bosnian gem, from the iconic Stari Most to the charming cobblestone streets, and immerse yourself in the Ottoman-era architecture. Don't miss this unforgettable experience!
Mostar, named after its iconic Old Bridge (Stari Most), has a rich past shaped by centuries of Ottoman, Mediterranean, and European influences. The tour typically begins with an exploration of the Old Bridge area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where visitors can marvel at the striking 16th-century Ottoman architecture that spans the Neretva River.
The guide will explain the historical significance of Stari Most, originally built in 1566 by the Ottoman Empire, and its symbolic role in connecting the two sides of the city, which were divided by both geography and culture. After admiring the bridge, visitors will have the chance to walk across it and take in panoramic views of the city, the river, and the surrounding hills.
Next, the tour moves to the Old Bazaar (Bazar Bazar), where cobbled streets are lined with colorful shops selling traditional Bosnian handicrafts, jewelry, and local products like pottery, rugs, and copperware. Here, you can stop for a coffee at one of the local cafes or try local sweets.
