Planning

Historical Context

Mostar was founded in the 15th century and became a major trade hub under Ottoman rule. The bridge was destroyed in 1993 and painstakingly rebuilt using original techniques.

Photography Tips

  • • Use a wide-angle lens for the bridge
  • • Polarizing filter helps with the turquoise water at the falls
  • • Golden hour at the bridge is spectacular.

Insider Tips

  • • Bring a reusable water bottle; Mostar has public fountains with drinkable mountain water
  • • The bridge is exceptionally slippery when wet—walk on the raised ridges
  • • Visit the Koski Mehmed Pasha Mosque for the best view of the bridge.

Our Partners

  • • Proudly partnering with Viator to bring you the best-in-class travel experiences.

Fun Facts

  • • The 'Mostar Divers' jump from the 24-meter high bridge into the cold Neretva River as a tradition dating back centuries.

Stunning Waterfalls

Kravice Waterfalls are a must-see. We had plenty of time to swim and enjoy the nature. The minibus was very comfortable and the border crossing was much faster than I expected.

Private Tour was Worth It

We booked a private car for our family. It allowed us to spend more time in Pocitelj and skip the crowds at the waterfalls. Our driver was professional and very friendly. High quality service.

Full Day but Rewarding

It is a long day (about 11 hours), but you see so much. The stop in Neum for a break was nice. Great value for the money compared to other excursions.

Perfect Coordination

Everything from the hotel pickup to the drop-off was perfectly coordinated. The luxury minibus felt brand new. Mostar is a place everyone should visit at least once.
