Begin your journey in Kotor, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Leave behind the dramatic cliffs of Boka and head inland, where Mediterranean luxury meets the raw beauty of the Herzegovinian karst.
Make your first stop in Perast, a baroque gem frozen in time. With its palaces and famous islands, this town serves as a final farewell to the sea before you head towards the mountains. Enjoy incredible views of the bay as you ascend, and cross the border into a completely different atmosphere – the peaceful, noble spirit of Trebinje.
Under the shade of centuries-old plane trees, with a glass of local wine and a view of the Arslanagić Bridge, feel the spirit of old Herzegovina, filled with warmth and tradition.
Continue north, discovering hidden wonders of nature and spirituality. In Blagaj, at the very source of the Buna River, be greeted by the mystical Tekija – a dervish monastery that has stood for centuries, nestled against a giant rock, while turquoise water flows from the depths of the cave.
Not far from there, nature shows its full power at the Kravica waterfalls. These “Herzegovinian Niagara Falls” offer refreshment in an amphitheatre of water and greenery, creating a scene rarely seen in this part of the world.
Crown your journey with a visit to Mostar. A city where East and West not only meet but intertwine into an inseparable whole. As you cross the arch of the Old Bridge and listen to the murmur on Kujundžiluk, realise that this tour has been a mosaic of the most beautiful contrasts the Balkans can offer: from sea salt and baroque, through Herzegovinian stone and wine, to roaring waterfalls and cobblestones that tell stories centuries old.
