We will start the tour in the so-called “Downtown” which includes Main Railway Station, Ban Jelačić Square, King Tomislav Square, the Art Pavilion, and the beautiful park Zrinjevac. From the main square, we will continue to Dolac – the most famous open-air market in Croatia. Next, we’ll head to Tkalčićeva Street, where the best restaurants and bars are located. Here, we’ll start to explore the “Upper Town” – the oldest part of Zagreb, home to St Mark’s Square, the former “Governor’s Palace”, the Croatian Parliament, Lotrščak Tower, Cathedral of Zagreb, and many museums and monuments. We will end our tour in front of the National Theatre. Free time for exploring the city or lunch. Later we will cross the border to Bosnia and continue our way to Hotel Courtyard by Marriott Banja Luka.

Thursday

Today, after breakfast, we join our tour leader for the Banja Luka optional city tour which includes Kastel fortress, Gospodska Street, The Cathedral of Christ the Savior, and Ferhadija mosque. Afterwards, we will visit Marija Zvijezda Monastery consisting of the church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the monastery of Trappist monks. Free time for exploring the city. In the evening we will make way to the Local community of Piskavica for an optional dinner and folklore show where we will immerse ourselves in the customs and rituals surrounding Patron Saint Day customs, an interesting experience for all.

Friday

After breakfast, we go on an optional excursion to Jajce. This small city is located in the central part of Bosnia and Herzegovina home of medieval kings, Ottoman governors, and a range of different ethnic groups as well as being one of President Tito’s earliest Communist strongholds. We visit the most interesting places, like the Jajce waterfall, the Castle, and the Pliva Watermills. An interesting day to get to know the history of Medieval Bosnia.

Saturday | Today’s optional half-day excursion begins with a visit to the Vrbas River. It is one of the most beautiful rivers in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the main Banja Luka watercourse passes through its center. We hop on a boat, called ‘Dayak’ for a fascinating journey as we navigate through the urban heart of Banja Luka. After our experience with the Dayak boats, we will proceed to the Ethno Village Ljubake Doline. This is set as an open-air museum to show the life of a community that used to inhabit this area in the late 19^th century and early 20^th century. The rest of the afternoon is free for shopping & and personal sightseeing.
