Taste Sarajevo through markets, pies, ćevapi, coffee, and baklava on a four-hour Old Town food tour with a local guide.

“Absolutely fab! They say that you can learn a lot about a country from their food, but you learn a lot more on a food tour. Well, if they did not say that before, they do now. I laughed, I learned and I absolutely ate. The food was all amazing. I not only left feeling full but full of ideas for my next few meals. I ate the best tomato of my life and drank the least plum flavoured plum drink that I have ever had. Our guide was great, funny and knowledgeable, I cannot imagine a better guide! Cannot recommend enough!!!”

Review of Sarajevo’s 4-hour Eat, Pray, Love Tour, covering Bosnian food, sacred sites, Baščaršija, local stories, price, and practical tips.

“Denis was fantastic and full of energy despite us being a very small group on that particular day. It was great to see his genuine excitement to tell us about the city he loves and calls home. The tour is a great combination of history, religion, food, inspiring characters, and even some humour. It really encourages you to look past Sarajevo's war torn past to consider everything it is in the present and will be in the future. Highly recommended!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $82

Explore Grbavica through Bosnian food, coffee, football, and wartime history on a five-hour small-group tour from Sarajevo.

“What a fantastic experience! Numa showed us parts of the city that tourists surely don’t visit. We tried some excellent home-cooked food, learned a lot about recent history, and visited the local football club stadium that had so much history to tell, had some great burek, Bosnian craft beer and some dessert that I’ve never seen before. It was some cooked apple with walnut cream inside and whipped cream on top! Amazing! I would definitely recommend this tour!”
