Thu, 30 Nov 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country still not too overrun by tourism, perhaps due to the legacy of the war that tested the population of former Yugoslavia in the 90s, and which is still paying the consequences today.

Sarajevo in One Day: A Tour

Thu, 30 Nov 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia, is a lively and dynamic city, but walking through its streets you can’t help but notice the marks of a war that isn’t too distant in the past. The 90s are still felt here through the bullet holes in the walls of houses, in the cemeteries scattered here and there, in the museums. As in the rest of the country, in Sarajevo 4 different religions blend together, along with different cultures, so you find yourself strolling among churches, Orthodox cathedrals, mosques and synagogues, between the tolling of bells and the muezzin’s call to prayer. We visited the city over two half-days, but the itinerary we’re sharing can perfectly be done in a single day. For getting around, since a couple of destinations are on the outskirts of the city and absolutely not reachable on foot, we used our van, but we saw plenty of people making use of the many taxis.

Ljubljana is one of the lesser-known and smallest European capitals, yet it holds a special charm mixed with a convivial, youthful atmosphere. Since it’s not huge, it can easily be visited on foot in a day or a weekend, and it makes it easy to reach other destinations in the country (which you’ll find conveniently here).

Slovenia by Campervan: 5 Days Between Mountains and Historic Villages

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 08:00:00 +0000

Slovenia was our first destination since starting our “Balkan Tour”; we had very few expectations, and that’s how we discovered this country with our own eyes, wonder after wonder. As soon as we crossed the border from Gorizia heading towards Nova Gorica, a whole range of nature nestled among the mountains opened up in front of us, a feast for the eyes, bend after bend, village after village, which immediately made us reconsider our expectations.
