Highly recommended tour
This is a wonderful tour to start your visit to Sarajevo. It included many sights that would be difficult to get to on your own. Our tour guide Mido was wonderful. He was quite knowledgeable about the history of the area. I would highly recommend booking this tour.

Best BEST tour I booked in the Balkans
This tour is a MUST is Sarajevo.. I am a single mom traveling alone with a 5 year old, and although this tour is full of heavy history, it’s also full of nature and beauty. My son and I both loved it, and we got lucky with an amazing guide, Mido. Breathtaking views on top of beautiful Sarajevo mountains, you will have ZERO regrets! Book this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you and your son enjoyed the tour, and that Mido made it special for you both. It’s great to hear you found both the history and nature so captivating. We hope to welcome you again someday!

PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sarajevo.
How much does PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $131 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sarajevo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Sarajevo is not rushed.
Is PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sarajevo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour?
+
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 PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour?
+
Around 1 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 Sarajevo 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 Sarajevo and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour 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 Sarajevo 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 Sarajevo?
+
On Outty we rank every Sarajevo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Fall of Yugoslavia, Sarajevo War Tour with Tunnel of Hope Museum and Frontlines, From Sarajevo: Srebrenica Genocide Memorial Study Tour, Tunnel Museum: Bosnian & Yugoslav Wars Tour with War Veteran. 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 Sarajevo?
+
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 Sarajevo?
+
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.
What is included in PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour?
+
Included: Private transportation; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: There is no exclusions for this tour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 15 listed pickup locations in and around Sarajevo. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to PRIVATE Sarajevo Under Siege War Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Sarajevo. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
