Located in the heart of southern Bosnia and Herzegovina, Herzegovina is a land where emerald rivers, ancient towns, and sun-soaked hills come together in an unforgettable mosaic of culture and nature. Whether you’re an adventurer, a history buff, or a leisure traveler looking for postcard-perfect moments, a full-day tour from Mostar will reveal some of the region’s finest gems.
Let us take you on a journey that includes three incredible highlights: the majestic Kravice Waterfalls, the charming Ottoman town of Počitelj, and the ancient Roman ruins near Mogorjelo.
Kravice Waterfalls – A Natural Wonder
First up: Kravice Waterfalls. This stunning cascade is one of the most awe-inspiring natural landmarks in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With a semi-circular drop measuring nearly 25 meters (82 feet), the falls create a lush, misty amphitheater perfect for swimming, relaxing, or capturing that once-in-a-lifetime photo.
Surrounded by green forest and home to a variety of birds and butterflies, Kravice is more than just a photo stop, it’s a sensory experience. On hot summer days, a dip in the clear, cool water is the ultimate refreshment.
Počitelj – A Living Museum
Next, we head to Počitelj, a magical stone village cascading down a hillside above the Neretva River. Primarily developed during the 16th century under Ottoman rule, Počitelj offers an authentic glimpse into Islamic architecture and life from that era.
Climbing its narrow, winding steps is like stepping back in time, while the cobbled streets and artisan workshops below breathe life into centuries of history and tradition.
Počitelj was a strategic defense town and an important center of art and education in the Ottoman period. Today, it’s protected as a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Roman Ruins of Mogorjelo – Echoes of the Empire
To wrap up the day, you’ll visit Mogorjelo, a remarkably well-preserved Roman villa rustica near Čapljina. Once part of a large agricultural estate in the 4th century AD, its stone walls and courtyard hint at a life of prosperity during the Roman Empire.
Walking among the ruins, you can imagine traders, horses, and workers bustling through what was once a thriving economic hub. It’s a lesser-known site, but one that enriches your understanding of the region’s layered history.
