Visit the town that suffered one of the greatest massacres after World War Two with this Srebrenica Day Trip. Discover the important and terrifying history of the northeast Bosnian town.

Srebrenica Day Trip

We'll meet at Zelenih Beretki 30 at 8 am and board a bus to Srebrenica, a town known for its tragedy.

During the two-and-a-half-hour trip, we'll pass through Vlasenica, Milici, and Bratunac, towns that experienced significant suffering during the Second World War and the Bosnian War.

On arrival in Srebrenica, a village between mountains, we'll learn about one of the bloodiest massacres in European history after the Second World War, known as the Srebrenica Genocide, where more than 8000 ethnic Bosnian Muslims were killed in June 1995.

We'll visit the Srebrenica Genocide Memorial located in Poto?ari, which was inaugurated in September 2003 by former U.S. President Bill Clinton and honors the victims.

During the tour, we'll discuss significant events of the massacre, including the UN's ineffective role and the motivations behind the attack ordered by Bosnian Serb general Ratko Mladi?. Participants will also have the opportunity to meet a Srebrenica survivor who will share their experiences from July 1995.

Additional sites include the UN base Dutchbat and the Genocide Museum. After the guided tour, there will be two hours of free time to enjoy a meal at your leisure. We will conclude our visit by discussing the health benefits of Srebrenica's water before returning to Sarajevo, arriving at the starting point by 4 pm.
