My partner and I had done a tour with Sarajevo Funky Tours before and were so impressed by the tour and Sarajevo decided we must come back. This time we did the Srebrenica Genocide Memorial tour. This is without doubt one of the most interesting (and saddest) travelling experiences we had. Our tour guide was amazing. We had the honour of meeting some local people in Srebrenica who gave a very moving first hand account of some of their experiences. My partner and I felt it was very important to have this experience and share it with others. I can't recommend this tour enough. Both the tour company and our guide did a superb job. Now back home, I tell everyone I know - go to Bosnia, learn the history, meet the people and have the same wonderful experience we had. Sarajevo is a truly wonderful city to visit, friendly people, great food, wine, coffee surrounded by rich history (already thinking of our next trip back).

Funky Tours gave us a very good introduction to the past and the present of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We were a part of two of the many tours they conduct and thanks to them, we can now associate a mental image and experience to every story they shared from the past and the everyday sites and sounds of Sarajevo and Mostar.

Did multiple tours with Funky Tours and they are great! Young, professional staff are easy to relate to and also very good at sharing their stories. Also really good at arranging uncommon requests, like last minute football tickets! Enjoyed my first tour with them so much I booked a second!

Sarajevo Funky Tours is hands down the best travel agency I have ever had the pleasure of working with. From the initial booking inquiry months in advance to the ride to the airport on my last day, everyone that I met with the Sarajevo Funky Tours team was delightful to be around. What sets this agency apart from the others is that their guides and staff know what it means to balance professionalism and building friendships with their guests. For the 8 days I spent touring with Funky Tours, all of the guides, drivers, and staff went above and beyond to check in with how I was doing throughout my stay -- and as a solo female traveler in a brand new county, that meant the world to me. I will always recommend this agency because of the time, effort, and care they put into breaking down prejudice -- and cannot wait to explore more of the Balkan Region with their team the next time I visit! Puno Ljubavi!

A wonderful and very organized company, I would recommend a thousand percent I contacted them on the email and the response was swift and wonderful, and the receptionist was friendly and very active I booked a tour with them to visit Srebrenica The tour was meticulously organized, and it was at the exact time Ms Arena the guide was surprisingly nice and helpful, and a wonderful and kind person, I talked to her at length on the road about life in Bosnia and Herzegovina The driver was nice and this, and the van was modern and new type of Mercedes When we reached the exhibition of the massacre, we watched an introductory film for 15 minutes, and one of the young men who survived the massacre spoke to us, as he was a baby at the time of the massacre, and a number of his family members were eliminated in this massacre. Then I wandered to the exhibition, which explained everything that happened accurately and in detail. The exhibition consists of two floors, and includes dozens of rooms, that it displays the massacre in the smallest details . After I left the exhibition, there was a photo exhibition during the war, the victims of the massacre, and the holdings that were with them during the massacre. Then I went to the monument to the victims of the massacre, and all the names of the victims were written in very broad stone I had stayed alone until he briefed everything in detailed, and group members had gone for lunch, and when they were back, the great guide Ms Arens had brought me a great meal for free, she was a wonderful human, and she gave me a bottle of water, MS Arena the guide took me to the mosque on the way back when I asked her to pray, And she gave me a gift, She is an amazing person. It was a special experience, The visit to the site of the massacre and the exhibition was very emotional,we must know this so that we can stop the wars and massacres around the world

To visit Sarajevo and to get back to its most difficult history felt like a human obligation for me who already lives in one of post-Yugoslavian countries and also right moment to open this history page to my son. From 5th of April 1992 to 29th of February 1996 Sarajevo was bleeding in front of entire world, besieged by Army of Republika Srpska. 1425 days of struggling with war, that nobody expected to last for so long, with war that killed 11.541 people and 1601 of them were children, with war that left people heroically struggling with every day bombing, with every day risking life for bread and water and trying to survive "in town without an exit". In memorial of all those people and their martyrdom we came. I couldn't manage this trip through Bosnian history on my own so decided to find a local, experienced guide who would help us to understand what actually happened here during Bosnian war, how was the reality looking like at that time and how does it look like today, in country of so many ethnic differences and political tensions. So the result overgrown my expectations - our guide was an amazing, charismatic man, who described Sarajevo and its history not only with passion and deep feelings for his country, but also spoke from perspective of war veteran and Siege survivor. He was one of those heroes who stayed in the city and faced front line every day, one of those who had a choice to escape from war disaster and to go abroad, but he didn't. He stayed in the middle of uncertain future and made decision to give his blood for his land, believes and dignity. How many of us would do that today?  These few hours of city tour we have spent together with Mr. Adnan were a very moving journey through single station of Sarajevo struggle and have left many unforgettable pictures in our memory.  Mr Adnan is very good word painter - he touches all senses through the way he speaks and doesn't confuse with overgrowth of emotions or opinions. He is very neutral and leaves space for thinking, for getting deep into places and doesn't judge from any perspective. Huge personality and such a graet, warm heart!! It was just the most precious live history lesson ever and honor for us to be there with a perfect guide..  I am looking forward to get back to BIH and to have opportunity to experience more about its places, history and nature! Funky Tours is my only choice for any other visiting option for the next time!

We took the half-day tour and we were amazed by how much you get to see and learn during it. The guide, Almir, was very interesting, well-informed and fun to be with. His history knowledge, as well as his English, was excellent. The agency is very well-organized; they answer your e-mails very quickly, nothing seems to be a problem and everything is as arranged. I would recomment this agecy to everyone.
