Overview

Bosnia and Herzegovina’s central towns of Travnik and Jajce showcase historical sites and natural scenery. This day trip from Sarajevo lasts about 10 to 11 hours by car with a professional driver and licensed guide. The tour begins near Gazi Husrev Begova 75 with hotel pickup and bottled water provided. Guests visit Travnik’s old town and see its traditional Bosnian houses, including the Colorful Mosque known as Sarena Dzamija. Next, the tour continues to Jajce, where the fortress sits 470 meters above the town, featuring medieval architecture and a royal coat of arms portal from the 15th century. Visitors also see Pliva Lakes and the unique Mlincici watermills from the Austro-Hungarian period, which stand on stilts above the water. The 17-meter-high Pliva waterfall, located centrally in Jajce, is one of the town’s main natural attractions. The itinerary also includes the Catacomb of Jajce, a two-level crypt built around 1400 AD for the Hrvatnić family, notable for its sculpted cross, sun, and crescent moon motifs related to the Bosnian Church. Breakfast is included, but entrance fees and lunch are not. The tour uses a modern vehicle with round-trip hotel transfer.
