The experience

The tour leaves Mostar in the morning and follows the Trebižat river valley south through the Herzegovinian countryside. You pass small traditional villages and river landscapes on a scenic drive that takes up most of the first half of the day. The guide is a local English speaker who drives and narrates the route, so you sit back and watch the terrain change from the city to rural valleys and forest.

At Kravica Waterfalls, you have free time to swim in the natural pools (seasonal and weather permitting), walk around the multiple viewpoints, take photos, or simply sit by the river and listen to the water. There are shaded areas and nearby cafes if you want to rest between activities. The waterfall is surrounded by lush green forest and fed by a torquoise river, and the site has no crowds or fixed schedule. You move at your own pace for as long as you want to stay.

Hotel pickup and drop-off in Mostar or the Herzegovina region are included, along with snacks and bottled water for the drive. The entrance fee to Kravica Waterfalls is optional and you choose it at checkout.
