Dubrovnik, Croatia

Mostar & the Old Bridge

Discover the Historic Crossroads of Bosnia Journey to Mostar, a symbol of harmony and unity in a region once torn by conflict. Enjoy a scenic drive with a local guide into neighboring Bosnia-Herzegovina. Along the way, stop in Počitelj, a well-preserved hillside medieval village that escaped major damage during the conflict of the 1990s. In Mostar, where Muslim, Christian and Jewish faiths have long coexisted in peace, you will marvel at the Stari Most, or Old Bridge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This dramatic, arched span over the Neretva River was destroyed during fighting in 1993 and has been completely rebuilt in its original Islamic style. Your guide will lead you through Mostar’s network of cobblestone streets, passing the Old Bazaar, Turkish Public Baths and ancient mosques and churches. You will also visit The Turkish House (Biščevića Ćošak), a stunning example of Turk architecture. You can explore on your own before returning to Dubrovnik. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
