Excursión a las cataratas de Mostar y Kravice desde Dubrovnik

Besides the expected stops on the borders (too many), the trip went on without inconvenient. The guide used precise expressions without wasting words but giving us a view of the geography and politics of the area. Excellent. The time on the Waterfalls could be a little longer, especially in summer. Not much to do in Mostar, except a quick visit to the tiny old town and have lunch. It looks to me like a Turkey village, therefore colorful and pretty. Not expensive if compared with Croatia.

Started by getting my dates mixed up but was delighted to be told that this was no problem and we could be moved to the following day. Sylvia is a great guide and gave us loads of interesting info on the drive there.

This is an excellent tour. Our guide, Silvia, picked us up at 7:30 on the dot (we were in an Airbnb and after giving the address we were given a pickup point just 5 mins from our place; you probably won't receive your pickup point until a day or two before the tour so don't panic). She was friendly, funny and informative for the whole drive and we were never bored. The scenery is excellent as well, I recommend sitting on the left hand side of the bus to get the better view over the coast. There are indeed 3 border crossings you have to make which is very strange, I think in total we spent about an hour each way waiting at the crossings (our group were all EU passports too, if you have people with visas expect to be there for even longer). We also went in early June, during July and August there is one checkpoint where you can be waiting for over an hour. The rest stop at Neum (between first and second crossing) was welcome although the stoppage place was uninspiring. Kravice waterfalls are very pretty (make sure you have money ready to give to your guide for entry), although the water is absolutely freezing and we decided it wasn't worth swimming. You don't get very long here either, if you're a fairly quick walker you can get about 30 mins down at the waterside. There's a small circular changing area at the bottom of the path if you do plan to go swimming. Silvia kept the information and humour going on the drive to Mostar, and there's some excellent views over the river valley on the way (we were able to stop on the way back to get pictures and buy local produce from a seller there). Mostar is picturesque but there are still visible remnants from the war (bullet holes in buildings etc). There's one main street with lots of tourist shops that leads to the famous bridge, so I'd recommend getting lunch on one of the side streets which were much quieter. Once you've had lunch you'll probably have about 60-90 mins to look around, which is enough time to take in the bridge and the souvenir stalls but not quite enough to explore much further (there was a museum we wanted to visit but decided we didn't have time). A packed lunch might be a good idea. We had two stops on the way back, one to see the river valley and another at a different hotel to get coffee/use the toilet. We weren't at a main hotel, so Silvia had arranged for us to be picked up by a taxi who drove us to our apartment at no extra cost, which was excellent service. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed this trip very much! Silvia, the guide, was amazing! The marriage between professionalism and friendliness all along with depth in knowledge, made the trip very interesting. I felt like i read a book about Croatia and Bosnia during the long drive! Really recommend this tour.

A small well organized tour that delivered what it stated in the advertised schedule. The free time we had was enough to fully appreciate both the waterfalls and Mostar. Time also for coffee and comfort break in both directions. Border control at peak times could be a problem.Would definitely recommend this trip.

I guess I didn’t realize how long of a day this was gonna be. The stops aren’t long, and a lot of time spent traveling so consider that when looking into this trip. They picked us up at 710 and we went directly to the falls- we never made the stop at neum? Or whatever the name of that coffee stop was supposed to be. You get an hour and a half at the falls. And this time of year it’s freaking hot!! The falls are beautiful and you can swim- just bring a change of clothes. Then next to Mostar for 2.5hrs. I can’t really say how it was bc it was soooo crowded and again freaking hot. Then off to home. Our guide Andrea was super nice.

gorgeous!! the place was amazing the stops where well done, the tour was right on time and they pick and dropp u off! so thats a check! the guide and the driver where amazing!!

We had a good time. The city of Mostar was fantastic also the Kravice water fall, but the best was our tour guide Andrea. She really made the trip different.

Mostar is beautiful -we're happy we took one of our days in Dubrovnik for this day trip! We were disappointed that the tour did not follow the itinerary in the description - we specifically chose this itinerary so that we would go to the waterfalls at the end of the day, as we wanted to swim after our full day of sightseeing - instead it was our first stop after the coffee break. We also did not stop in Neum for the coffee break on the way, but rather at a road-side hotel with no ambience. The Neum stop was at the end of the day and again, just at a road-side hotel - not picturesque for a seaside town. Pocitelj was interesting with wonderful stalls selling souvenirs, fruit and juices. Mostar was definitely the highlight!

Perfect organization and a wonderful trip to bosnia. Everything works in a good way

This tour was perfect from the start. I was picked up in front of my Hotel. Our guide Ivana made the ride in the mini bus very interesting. Ivana told us about the history of Dubrovnik and Croatia as we travelled to the border. All the way during the ride she asked all the passangers is everything all right, do we need something, is the temperature in the mini bus OK. She and the driver Teddy really made our tour interesting and memorable. First place that we visited were Kravice waterfalls. They are just gorgeous. The falls here are amazing and the water very clear. You can swim in the crystal clean and beautiful green water. Our next stop was Počitelj. For such a small place, there are so many interesting and unique buildings to explore. The climb up to the fort was well worth it. After 20 minutes we arrived in Mostar.I really loved Mostar, oriental,different, great food and people. The best to see in one day out from Dubrovnik. Learned a lot about this region. On the way back Teddy and Ivana told us that we will go on the little border near village Ravno where there is no traffic so we will not have to wait on the border. This was just perfect beacuse we stoped on the way in the old train station which is now family owned restaurant and vinery. They even gave me a glass of wine which was just perfect because I really like wine. Where ever I go I like to try domestic wines. This wine was just perfect and at the end I bought a bottle of wine for very reasonable price. I can just say this excursions was perfect from the start to the end. Thank you Ivana and Teddy for a perfect day!
