Across Borders: A Day from Trogir to Mostar and Međugorje — History, Pilgrimage and Bosnian Wine.
This full-day trip threads together two contrasting souls of the region: Mostar’s Ottoman-flavored streets, led by the 16th‑century Turkish bridge and its lively old bazaar, and the quiet, devotional atmosphere of Međugorje, where pilgrims gather at Apparition Hill. Along the way the program includes local food and a wine tasting, making the day a compact mix of culture, history and spirituality.
