What to do in Herzegovina at a glance
The list is a selection, not an official ranking. Entries 1 and 2 are in Mostar. Entries 3 to 5 are a waterfall, a dervish house and a fortified village. Entries 6 to 8 cover Medjugorje and Trebinje. Entries 9 to 11 are around Konjic and the Neretva, and entry 12 is Stolac with the tombstone site of Radimlja. A nature park, Hutovo Blato, follows as an extra.
Prices are for adults in 2026 and can change. Where an operator gives both a KM price and a euro price, both are shown, because they are not an exact conversion of each other.
Mostar (1 and 2)
The bridge quarter, the museums and the mosque.
1. See the Old Bridge and the historic quarter
Stari Most was completed in 1566 under Mimar Hajruddin and destroyed in 1993. UNESCO names 2002 for the completion of parts of the reconstruction work, and the rebuilt bridge was inaugurated on 23 July 2004. The World Heritage listing is for the Old Bridge Area of the Old City of Mostar, entered in the register in 2005, and covers a defined area, not every street. Local divers jump from the bridge. Money collected from onlookers pays for a demonstration jump and is not a price for your own jump. A badly executed jump can be deadly, so leave jumping to the members of the divers' club.
Stari Most guide →2. Visit the museums and the Koski Mehmed Pasha Mosque
The Stari Most Museum is open 10:00–18:00 daily from 1 April to 1 November. The MuM interpretation center is open 08:00–16:00 in the same period, daily except Sunday. Outside those dates, visits are by arrangement. The Džemal Bijedić memorial house lists 08:00–16:00, with weekends as needed. The mosque has a narrow, steep minaret staircase. Cover shoulders and knees, take off your shoes in the prayer room and respect prayer times. The city announced a Mostar Pass in April 2025, with a base package of 50 KM plus VAT (about €25.56); check whether it is on sale and what it costs in total.
Mostar guide →Waterfall, tekke and fortress village (3 to 5)
Three short trips from Mostar.
3. Visit the Kravice waterfalls
Adults pay 20 KM (about €10.23) all year. Residents of Bosnia and Herzegovina pay 10 KM, school groups aged 7 to 18 pay 10 KM, and children up to 7 enter free. Opening hours depend on the month: 07:00–17:00 from November to February, 07:00–18:00 in March and April, 07:00–19:00 in October, 07:00–20:00 in May and 07:00–22:00 from June to September. Swimming is at your own risk, animals and fire are not allowed, and the operator warns of falling tufa.
Kravice guide →4. See the tekke at the Buna spring in Blagaj
The dervish house stands against the rock where the Buna comes out of the ground. The cantonal tourism organization dates it to the 16th century. The operator lists daily opening of 08:30–20:30, while a travel portal from February 2025 gave 08:00–20:00 in summer and 09:00–17:00 in winter, so confirm before a late visit. Cover shoulders and knees, women cover their heads, and shoes come off before you go in. Mostar Bus lines 10 and 12 run to Blagaj; check where the stop is in relation to the tekke.
Blagaj guide →5. Walk up through Počitelj
The fortified village lies on the left bank of the Neretva, on the main road between Mostar and Metković, in the municipality of Čapljina. It has medieval and Ottoman phases. The Hadži-Alija Mosque carries a building inscription of 1562/1563, and a UNESCO inventory also names a madrasa, a hammam and a clock tower. Počitelj is on the UNESCO tentative list, not on the World Heritage List. Ask on site about access to the towers and the mosque.
Počitelj guide →Our picks: things to do

Medjugorje and Trebinje (6 to 8)
A place of pilgrimage and a walled town in the Republika Srpska.
6. Visit Medjugorje respectfully
The parish names three places of prayer: the Church of St. James, Apparition Hill (Podbrdo) and Cross Mountain (Križevac). A Vatican note of 19 September 2024 gives a positive pastoral judgment and allows public veneration. It does not declare the reported apparitions to be supernatural, and nobody is obliged to believe in them. Cover shoulders and knees, keep quiet and light no candles on the hills. Take no photos during Mass or adoration. Mostar Bus line 48 runs between Mostar and Medjugorje, with a single fare of 5.50 KM (about €2.81) on the cantonal line.
Medjugorje guide →7. Walk Trebinje's old town and Gračanica
Trebinje lies in the Republika Srpska, within Bosnia and Herzegovina, with no international border between it and Mostar. The old town is a walled Ottoman core with the Osman Pasha Mosque in the center and cafés and restaurants inside. Hercegovačka Gračanica stands on Crkvina hill and holds the grave of Jovan Dučić, whose remains were brought from the United States in 2000. The church itself is not a medieval original. The Arslanagić Bridge near the town dates from 1574 and was moved for a hydropower reservoir.
Trebinje guide →8. Taste wine at Tvrdoš monastery
Tvrdoš lies on the right bank of the Trebišnjica west of Trebinje, 5 km away according to the tourism organization and 4.5 km according to the city portal. It is open 07:00–19:00 on weekdays and weekends. Vranac wine ages in an old stone cellar, and a modern cellar sits beside it. Ask about tastings and prices, since neither a free tasting nor a fixed price is listed.
Trebinje guide →Konjic and the Neretva (9 to 11)
Konjic lies where Herzegovina meets the mountains of Bosnia. The old stone bridge, a bunker, the river and a lake make a full day.
9. Cross Konjic's old stone bridge
The tourism organization names the historic stone bridge over the Neretva as the town's landmark. The bunker, the river and the lake follow below.
Konjic guide →10. Tour the ARK bunker
The former nuclear shelter and command bunker was built between 1953 and 1979, according to the municipality. Visits need a reservation. Guided tours start daily at 09:00, 12:00 and 15:00 and take about 90 minutes. The price is 40 KM per person (the operator's English page lists €21), and 20 KM for residents of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Children under 12 with their parents enter free.
Bunker details →11. Go rafting on the Neretva or swim at Lake Boračko
One operator lists rafting from 20 April to 1 November: full rafting with a barbecue meal for €50 per person, the length depending on the water, and mini rafting of about 1 hour for €25. The municipality names Lake Boračko as a place for swimming and recreation. Check conditions on the day.
Rafting and lake →Stolac (12)
Medieval tombstones in a river valley.
12. See the stećci at Radimlja and the Bregava in Stolac
The Bregava flows through Stolac, with the fortress Vidoški grad above the town. Radimlja is part of the UNESCO site Stećci Medieval Tombstone Graveyards, inscribed in 2016. The site includes 28 cemeteries in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia, dated to the 12th to 16th centuries. That does not make every tombstone in the country, or the whole town of Stolac, a World Heritage property. Radimlja is run by a municipal institution, so confirm opening hours and the ticket price with it before you go.
Stolac guide →An extra: Hutovo Blato nature park
Hutovo Blato is a wetland with a boat trip, listed separately so that the main list stays at 12. In 2026 the adult base ticket is 5 KM (about €2.56). It covers parking, park entry and the marked educational trails, and you need it for every other offer. Children aged 0 to 7 enter free. The interpretation center costs 3 KM (about €1.53), the regular boat trip 20 KM (about €10.23), and the combined ticket with base, center and boat 25 KM (about €12.78). A family ticket for 2 adults and 2 children is 50 KM (about €25.56). Prices include VAT.
Boats leave daily at 11:00 and 13:00, and groups must register at least a day ahead. The park is at Karaotok bb in Višići. Departures are not guaranteed in bad weather, so ask before you drive out. The tours page compares boat, bunker and rafting offers.

Things to do in Herzegovina: frequently asked questions

That depends on your interests. This list is an editorial selection and not a ranking. Day tours often combine the Old Bridge in Mostar with Kravice and Blagaj or Počitelj.
Is there a combined ticket for the region?
No joint ticket is published. The Mostar Pass announced in April 2025 covers sights in Mostar only, and its current availability should be checked. Kravice, the bunker and Hutovo Blato each have their own prices.
Can I swim at the Kravice waterfalls?
Yes, at your own risk. The operator forbids bathing animals and fires, and warns of falling tufa. No supervised swimming season is promised.
What should I wear at mosques, churches and monasteries?
Cover shoulders and knees. In mosques and in the Blagaj tekke, take off your shoes before you enter, and women cover their heads in the tekke. In Medjugorje, keep to the same dress rule and stay quiet.

Mostar Bus line 48 runs to Medjugorje, with a single fare of 5.50 KM (about €2.81) on the cantonal line in 2026. Check the current timetable before you go.
Is Trebinje in a different country?
No. Trebinje lies in the Republika Srpska, one of the entities of Bosnia and Herzegovina. See the Trebinje page for the town.
