Your birdwatching holiday in Bosnia and Herzegovina will include a little gastro tour of Herzegovina. Tasting the local cuisine is one of the best ways to get a true feel for a country. Each day, after our morning birdwatching session, we will visit the best restaurants in the area and sample a variety of locally produced food and wine. I promise you will not get bored.

Lunch by Bregava river observing Dippers and Grey Wagtails.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, burek and its variations can be traditionally prepared under a sač (iron bell covered with hot coals), which gives them a smoky aroma and crispy crust. While burek refers to the meat-filled version, other popular fillings include cheese, spinach, and potato, all made with hand-stretched dough. Baking under the sac preserves the rustic flavor and highlights the deep-rooted culinary traditions of the region.
Sevdija’s home in Počitelj, offering wild or organically grown sage, pomegranate, rose, mint & elderflower juices as well as traditional Bosnain coffee.
While in Neretva Delta we will visit nice family run restaurant where they grow their own produce. We will sample Stoja's bread and her home grown olives and olive oil.
