    Absolutely superb.. Our time in Bosnia was truly unforgettable! What an extraordinary country it is. Thanks to our exceptional tour guide Vekas from Bosnian Tours, our experience was exceptionally memorable. He tailored the tour to our preferences, and his commitment ensured that we made the most of our visit and the country. It's not often that you come across guides in Bosnia who are so dedicated. We managed to visit around 15 different locations in such a short span of time. If you're considering your next vacation, I strongly urge you to think about exploring Bosnia.

    I was in Bosnia last July and I fell in love with that country immediately.
    I visited in Sarajevo, Blagaj Tekija, Mostar, Sarajevo and Kozarac. Sadly you didn't have more time to enjoy Sarajevo.
    This July I am planning to visit in Neum, Jajce, Visoko and again in Sarajevo after my quick visit in Izmit, Turkey.
    It's still about 20 years to my retirement so things can still change but at the moment Bosnia somewhere near or in Sarajevo will be where I will live.
    Volim Bosnia I Sarajevo

I was born in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1992. in the city of Tuzla and I love that you filmed the series your way from Great Britain to the Balkans. I love your videos, I hope we will meet and hang out in the future

Hate that hypocritical bullshit. Loved the video fam, keep it up

    Your joy and excitement about just riding round a few corners is why biking is a life saver. It reminded me of

    I'm planning to purchase another bike soon, so if you visit Manchester let me know and we can grab a coffee.

    Gutted you didn't spend a bit more time in Sarajevo, fantastic city. I went other direction to you back in July 21 (I had a marathon in Croatia, so flew to Zagreb, then drove rental car to Ljubljana in Slovenia, down to Plitvice in Croatia again which is where marathon was, over to Sarajevo, a day to Srebenica, before driving down to Mostar, Podgorica in Montenegro, Tirana in Albania, then back up and home via Dubrovnik: Sarajevo is one of my favourite cities visited - loved it. Coincidentally, I had ran Belgrade Marathon a month previous, and took rental car down to Skopje in N. Macedonia, before spending a few days in Kosovo....... now THAT was a destination (Mitrovice was entertaining!). Only downside was doing it all in a rental car instead of a bike, but I was over to run, so will have to leave the bike tour for another year, as the roads WERE amazing!

    Loving your series, brings back the best of memories for me. I did a very similar trip (no camping shite!,) to you last summer same bike as well, bumped into your mate Joe Achilles at the very start who mentioned you. I too was like what the fuck, why am I doing this solo when I left London, ended up totally lovin the solo experience after day 2. The total sense of freedom you get is unrivalled.
    I loved the so called dodgy, shitty east (media perpetuated) from Slovenia through the Balkans all the way to Montenegro. These nations were so refreshing in contrast to the ponciness of Italy and France !
