Tour description
Stroll where East meets West on a free walking tour of Sarajevo's Old Town. Alongside a local guide, you will gather at the Sebilj Fountain in the Ottoman-era Baščaršija bazaar, wander through coppersmith alleys and cafés, and visit the magnificent Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque. Cross the symbolic line where the Ottoman city meets the Austro-Hungarian quarter, pass Orthodox, Catholic, and Jewish landmarks, and reach the Latin Bridge, where the shot that sparked World War I was fired. Listen to powerful stories of coexistence, the siege, and resilience, while picking up insider tips on ćevapi, Bosnian coffee, and the best viewpoints. Free to join — at the end of the tour, simply tip your guide what you feel it was worth.
