About this activity

Step into a blend of nature, spirituality, and heritage on this half-day tour to Blagaj Tekija and the Buna River. Just a short drive from Mostar, Blagaj is home to one of the most iconic sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the 16th-century Dervish Monastery (Tekija), dramatically located at the source of the Buna River, under towering cliffs.

This tour is ideal for travelers seeking a peaceful cultural escape, photogenic scenery, and insight into Sufi mysticism and Ottoman-era architecture.

The Stari Most (Old Bridge), which stands alone in beauty and elegance, crosses the River Neretva in a high arch, and is therefore referred to as the petrified crescent.

Blagaj tekija

Blagaj Tekke is a 16th-century Dervish monastery nestled at the source of the Buna River, near Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This architectural and spiritual gem is one of the most picturesque sites in the country, harmoniously blending Ottoman-era design with the dramatic natural landscape.
River Buna Spring

30 min

Nestled beneath a towering cliff in the quaint village of Blagaj, the River Buna Spring (Vrelo Bune) is one of the strongest and most picturesque karst springs in Europe. Gushing from a cavern beneath a vertical limestone wall, the turquoise waters form the source of the Buna River, creating a truly breathtaking natural spectacle.
