Itinerary (Day Wise)

Step into Bosnia’s royal and imperial past on a full-day tour from Sarajevo to Travnik and Jajce—two of the country’s most historic towns, crowned by the dramatic Pliva Waterfall. 

Travnik – Ottoman-era heritage

Begin in Travnik, once an important Ottoman administrative centre. Walk through the old town atmosphere and visit key highlights such as the Travnik Fortress for panoramic views, the richly decorated Šarena Džamija (Colourful Mosque), and the area linked to Nobel Prize winner Ivo Andrić.

Jajce – Royal capital meets natural beauty

Continue to Jajce, a former royal capital where medieval history and nature blend in one compact setting. Explore the historic core and its most notable sites, including the Jajce Fortress and the town’s famous Pliva Waterfall—one of the most iconic natural landmarks in Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Pliva Lakes & Watermills

If timing and conditions allow, enjoy the calm scenery of the Pliva Lakes and the traditional wooden watermills—one of the most photogenic corners of the region.
