Overview

Inside the Siege: Sarajevo’s Story of Survival is a powerful journey through the longest siege in modern history. Led by a knowledgeable local guide, this tour goes beyond dates and facts, offering personal stories, deep historical insights, and a unique perspective on survival and resilience.

Starting at the Yellow Fortress, you’ll get a panoramic view of Sarajevo and understand how the city was surrounded. Drive through Sniper Alley, once one of the most dangerous streets in the world, and visit the Markale Market, the site of tragic massacres. Stop at the Defenders’ Cemetery, where those who fought to protect the city are buried, and see the Olympic Stadium, once a symbol of Sarajevo’s glory, later parts of it turned into a cemetery as war took over.

The highlight of the tour is the Tunnel of Hope, Sarajevo’s only lifeline during the siege. Walk through this underground passage and discover how it kept the city alive. With a mix of history, personal accounts, and real-life experiences, this tour offers an unforgettable insight into war, survival, and the strength of Sarajevo’s people.
