Flights & TransfersYour guided Bosnia photography holiday
Travel with us on this guided photography holiday to Bosnia and Herzegovina, a country rich in photographic opportunities. The historic streets of Mostar and its iconic Stari Most bridge, along with the landscapes of the Neretva Valley, Blagaj Tekke, and the Kravica Waterfalls, offer a perfect backdrop for developing documentary, street, architectural, and landscape photography skills in an inspiring setting. On this holiday, we’ll explore Bosnia not just through the camera’s lens, but also through its rich culture, regional cuisine, and traditions shaped by centuries of Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian, and Yugoslav history. We’ll be joined by an additional tutor from the Dublin Photography School, who will provide tutorials, demonstrations, and expert tips throughout the holiday, helping our small group make the most of every image captured.
Please Note: This tour is provided in association with Dublin Photography School and is suitable for anyone seeking to develop their digital photography skills, from beginner to advanced.
