Old Bridge Area of the Old City of Mostar
An exhilarating journey full of contrasts. Known as the “melting pot of cultures”, Mostar will undeniably become one of your favourite places on earth. As you step inside the city, you'll immediately sense the influence of centuries-long Turkish rule. From tall, slim minarets reaching for the sky, cobbled bazaar street with rhythmic tapping of hammers against copper plates as they are being transformed into pretty souvenirs, to houses with ornate wooden balconies, the city lives and breathes history. This truly is a place where East meets West.

Bewildered pickup spot
The pickup was 25 minutes late. The pickup spot is at a hotel under renovation for almost a year, w no hotel signage whatsoever visible except a tiny parking charge sign by the roadside. It was most nerve racking to ascertain the spot. We were picked up by a small van n transfered to a big bus. To be fair the bus was comfortable n the guides are knowledgeable n good. Please improve on yr pickup spot and punctuality.

Mostar, i is worthit
Nice tour, but very long. I would recommend other stops to strait the legs since too much time to cross the bosnian Border. At least they could offer us a Snack or drink

Disappointing Experience on Mostar Tour.
We went as part of a Tui organised trip o 25/10/23. Mostar is a gorgeous place and very interesting. The local guide (Yasmina) was very knowledgeable and a good clear speaker. However, what marred our experience was that, unfortunately, we left presents for our children ( 2 lamps) on the bus...our fault I know....but when we tried to retrieve them we were seriously messed around by the Tui Rep at our hotel. We were told that they had been found (twice) by the rep (Kristine) at our hotel (Admiral in Slano) and would be returned before the end of our stay. They weren't, and we had to go home without them. I even tipped Kristine for her trouble, but she has ignored 2 emails I sent to her since, using her email address, kindly provided by the hotel. I know the presents were our responsibility, and don't really know who else is at fault here, but we still feel "conned" by somebody ! Thanks for listening....
Response from the operator: Dear Valued Guest, We are happy you enjoyed the tour and at the same time really sorry for this incident with the presents for your children. Please notice your comments are very important for us to improve our services. Kind regards, Customer Service team

Disappointing Tui Trip to Mostar
Tui trip from Kalamato Hotel Kolocep. 6.35 ferry and rep was late as presumably she had tracked ferry using an app - but then wouldn't we all have liked another 10 mins in bed! Told it was 3 hr coach journey with arrival in Mostar between 11 and 11.30 and this confirmed by guide as we boarded coach at 7,30. 5 other pickups later we finally left Dubrovnik area at 9.15 and arrived Mostar at 12.30. So now we are late and waited 15mins at one of stops on tour of Mostar as we were late to enter Mosque. Yes, we had full 3 hrs in Mostar, supposedly 1hr walking tour and 2 hr free time but by nearly 2pm we gave up and left tour for lunch and time for us to look around. I really enjoyed Mostar, my wife less so. Trip back had 2 very truncated stops as there was likelihood we would miss last (8pm) ferry back to Kolocep altho'tour company had plan for a charter boat. In the end the altereddropoffs so took us to harbour before dropping others at their hotels in Dubrovnik. Arrived at ferry terminal just after 7.30pm, 4 hrs after leaving g Mostar. So we spent 9 hrs on coach - NOT the 6 hrs we had been told - for 3 hrs in Mostar; definitely NOT worth it. And NO, it was the border crossings that were the issue, the issue was multiple pick ups in Dubrovnik. All-in-all a most unsatisfactory and disappointing trip, and the rep I spoke to about it the morning g after seemed unsurprised and unconcerned. BEWARE!
Response from the operator: Dear Valued guest, Thank you for your feedback and the time you dedicated to write it. We are really sorry to hear that this service did not meet your expectations and needs. Nevertheless, your comments really matter to our local team to improve the quality's standard service by applying the appropriate corrective actions. Kind regards, Customer Service Team

Tui Tour Dubrovnik to Mostar - Superb Tour
Saturday 11th June and we were booked on the All Day Mostar Tour. Although we booked the tour through a TUI Rep at our hotel, Tui Blue Kalamato on Kolocep, the Tour Operator was Gullivers Travels. It was an early start as we picked up our coach in Gruz Port at 07.00, we first had to get a boat from Kolocep to Dubrovnik which took about forty-five minutes. Our coach driver was Joseph while our Guide was Jelena. Along the way we stopped at the Stanica Ravno for a pit stop and coffee break. This was once a ruined railway station which was tastefully restored as a hotel and cafe. We arrived in Mostar at around 11.00 where we met our local Guide, Dado from, Fortuna Tours. One of the features of the Tour was guided tour of the Old Town. We visited the delightful small Hadji Kurt Mosque (Tabacica). We then made our way to Stari Most (Old Bridge) where we watched the divers plunge into the Neretva River below. The final stop was at Kajtaz House, superb preserved example of an Ottoman House, we also tasted some Turkish coffee here.The tour lasted about ninety minutes, it was full of historical, social and useful information. Once the tour was over we were free to explore the City on our own. We visited the beach under the Bridge and walked over the Crooked Bridge, vusited the Mostar Peace Bell Tower and the Koskin Mehmed Pasha Mosque, entrance fee here. Although the war ended 30 years ago, we saw lots of war ruins and buildings riddled with bullet marks, as we walked around the streets. We also visited one of the many War Grave Cemeteries around the area, it was absolutely heartbreaking, row upon row of the Graves of young men. Our time here had soon flown by and it was time to leave this historic City On our return journey to Dubrovnik and before crossing over the boarder into Croatia, we stopped at the ancient village of Počitelj in Bosnia Herzegovina. All of the places mentioned above are reviewed separately on Tripadvisor. Before we left Bosnia we arrived in Nuem at 16.50 where we stopped for twenty minutes. From a vantage point here we had views along the Bay of Mali Ston down as far as the Peljesac bridge. It is known locally as the Chinese Bridge because it was built by the Chinese along with EU funding. The Bridge spans the Bay for 2.4 kilometres (1.5 miles) and links the southern coastal areas to the rest of the country. Our Guide informed us that previously Croatians had cross parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Customs to reach parts of their Country. The opening date for the Bridge was constantly being pushed back. We were back in Dubrovnik at about 18.30 which was plenty of time to have a few beers and dinner before catching the last ferry back to Kolocep.
Response from the operator: Dear David, Many thanks for your very positive and thorough feedback. It is impressive the quantity and the precision of the information and details you shared, which will be indeed extremely helpful for other travelers. Your comments are very important for us to improve our services and I am glad you had a lovely experience with us and we met your travelling expectations in full. We hope to be your choice for your future holiday destinations. Kind regards, Customer Service team

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik cost?
+
Prices start at $93 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Split usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Split is not rushed.
Is Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Split can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Split and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Split within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Split?
+
On Outty we rank every Split experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Split Walking Tour with Professor of History, Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister of History, From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Split?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Split?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
