Where possible, the tour includes a viewing of the Sarajevo Haggadah, one of the oldest and most traveled Jewish manuscripts in the world — a book that survived the Inquisition, World War II, and the siege of Sarajevo itself.

Museum of the Jews of Bosnia and Herzegovina
Our agency is fairly easy to find even without using a map. Follow the stream of the river Miljacka and next to the bridge Ćumurija, on the left side of the river, you will see a big GREEN-YELLOW building.
The name of the building is Papagajka and our office is on the corner of the building.
