A city that remembers.

Thank you for considering Roses of Sarajevo. We look forward to walking the city with you.

Roses of Sarajevo is a tailored, personal war tour based in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. We focus on the 1992-1995 siege and the cultural memory that still shapes the city.

The tour visits museums, historic neighborhoods and landmarks — including the Tunnel of Hope, Sniper Alley and the memorial roses that mark the streets — with licensed guides deeply connected to this history.
