We did the 2-hour tour with Iris from the Mostar International Street Art Festival team and it was simply fantastic. Iris made us feel the many scarfs and wounds of the Balkan war - in the most poetic and personal way. The tour conveyed also so much hope - people like Iris and her fellow artists do make such a difference in Bosnia. We looked at many wonderful and moving murals, heard the stories and walked the newer part of Mostar. The tour was the highlight of our 2-week trip to the Balkans!galaivkovic1

The tour was a blast! I really loved the idea behind it: a group of young people who created this street art festival tour wanted to share their knowledge, show master art pieces by international street artists and also explain a bit more the history of the city itself. I really admire how it connects with their vision and mission and how active they are on building a better community. The murals we saw during the tour were a pure delight and the tour was organized perfectly, definitely recommend it.
