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!
