In 2017 my late husband and I did a Trafalgar Tour of Croatia, Bosnia and the surrounding areas.
We met Samra on this trip in Sarajevo where she... read more was our Local Guide!
Right away I warmed to her smile and sincere open personality!
Samra shared the city and it's history with great knowledge and passion, and gave us a raw insight into its recent past during the dreadful siege and war time!
She was really informative and interesting to listen to and I can still clearly see her sharing with us and guiding us through her city and the Markets!
You'll love meeting Samra as I did and hearing her story will make you Love Sarajevo too! My heart hurt at what these resilient yet strong people survived through
Love to you Samra, you're a great asset to all tours of Sarajevo and beyond! And a Special Soul!
Thanks you so much!

  I recently interviewed Samra, who was highly recommended to me by a friend. She’s not only knowledgeable about Bosnian history but is an excellent and articulate storyteller with a great... read more sense of humour. Her English is perfect, and it was very clear to me that she is a kind person who genuinely loves guiding. She also shared her personal experience during the war and enlightened me on many aspects of it. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Sarajevo from her perspective. Thanks so much for taking the time, Samra!

  I had dreamed of visiting Sarajevo since the Olympics were held there. I knew a few things about this city but I did not know much about its many layered... read more history until we met Samra, our most wonderful guide. Samra took us on a journey from the start of World War 1 to the Bosnian War and current times. I have to say I cried as many times as I laughed and I learned as much about human emotions as I did about history. Samra gave us the facts and she also gave us the space whether at the tunnel or at tea to reflect upon the entire chessboard.

I felt I received a great gift in Sarajevo. I felt I had become a somewhat better person. Thank you, Samra

  I came along with my Wife and her colleagues on this tour and didn't think it was going to be anything special... until we met up with Samra and... read more she took us through Sarajevo and pointed out not only about a war I barely knew anything about, but also the sites of the bullet holes and shrapnel throughout the buildings that I never really noticed before on my own. And the personal stories she shared really made this a very outstanding tour. I was amazed as we went to and through a part of the Tunnel of Life and when we watched some of the movies afterwards... it brought this big Hawaiian guy to tears. Thank you Samra for a very personal and outstanding tour! Much aloha from Hawaii! Kevin

  The first time I met Samra was in 2017 when I visited Sarajevo with friends and we had a tour of the city and the Tunnel of Life. She was... read more so incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Sarajevo and Bosnia and Herzegovina that we did not want the tour to end. We wanted to learn and know more and also hear about her experiences. Her warmth and engaged manner also made the tour fun. Since 2017, I have recommended Samra to all friends and family members passing through Sarajevo and looking for a really meaningful and enjoyable tour. In July 2022, I was in Sarajevo again with my husband and when he said he wanted a tour, there was only one person I would consider calling - Samra. Our tour was wonderful and my husband thoroughly appreciated it. For me it was like seeing an old friend - Samra embodies the famous Bosnian hospitality. Highly recommended guide and tour - the only way to see Sarajevo is with Samra.

The story of the tunnel, enhanced by her personal recollections was so riveting I know there’s growth in my limited comprehension of war times. I better understand the current situation in the Ukraine. My advice, definitely take a tour with her and learn.
