The road peels away from Sarajevo’s bowl of red roofs and climbs into a different light—one of limestone cliffs, river green, and Ottoman stonework. On this private day tour the driver threads scarred mountain passes toward Herzegovina, depositing travelers at a string of places that feel like chapters: Konjic’s old bridge and café stops; the spring-fed serenity of Blagaj with its Dervish tekke; the broad plunge pool and cascades of Kravice; and finally Mostar with its 16th-century Stari Most arching above the Neretva.
