EXCEPTIONAL … I can say no more
EXCEPTIONAL … I can say no more from booking to getting dropped off at Sarajevo Airport for our flight home the support and help from Graeme and his team was outstanding.
Myself my wife and son have just returned from Jahorina having taken the Silver Hotel Package …. and already booked for next feb half term.
It is everything one would want from a ski holiday for a family Sun, Snow, Great Food and the odd glass of Kuvano Vino! Such a relaxed enviroment to enjoy.
Everthing catered for as soon as you get off the plane met at arrivals taken to hotel, sized up for kit and given lift passes.
The fantastic instructors had my 14yr old skiing with confidence in 6 hrs of lessons over 3 days .
I very rarely write reviews but Ski Sarajevo really go above and beyond to ensure their guests have an exceptional time as a very competive price compared to central europe.
Thank you Graeme and your team (especially Vlado at Hotel San)
Great Skiing ending in an amazing Sarajevo City tour – definitely do it!
Great holiday! I was a lone traveller and did the Silver Package 6 nights on the mountain with 1 night in Sarajevo, which I would highly recommend!
Welcomed at the Airport by a very friendly, helpful local team, Mustafa and Mersiha (husband and wife), they were also my point of contact during the stay and kindly would send me messages to check in regularly.
The Hotel San was basic, but the staff were very friendly and I personally enjoyed the buffet style breakfast and evening meal in the intimate dining room/sitting area/bar area.
The resort is very friendly and my attempt at Bosnian was appreciated warmly. I would say although this suited me for this trip, I hadn’t noticed or found evidence of the typical entertainment/ Apres Ski experienced in larger resorts in France etc so the evenings could potentially feel long (ski lifts close at 1600).
The Ski itself was perfect for me especially as my preferred runs where actually close to the hotel. A very short walk (couple of minutes) down the road leads you straight onto the slope and easy access to two of the numerous ski lifts. There were plenty of runs for all levels, high winds and limited snow on days did cause run and lift closures as you would expect, but when the snow came its was great.
For me, the day in Sarajevo rounded off the holiday, I did the City Tour and the must see War Tunnel, luckily had both Mustafa and Mersiha as my guides, they were so knowledgeable, providing personal experiences and insights making this already historically and architecturally fascinating city even more so. They took me to try Cevapi and I later tried Burek, both famous dishes for the country and delicious!
NB Wifi appears to be readily available nearly everywhere, even tiny cafes will have their password access on display. So try not to get stung by the high rates of your own network data as its very expensive as this is country is not in the EU.
So thank you Ski Sarajevo and a Big Thank you to Mustafa and Mersiha, and I definitely hope to return in the future!!!
Great family skiing holiday
Jahorina was a perfect choice for our first skiing holiday as a family and Graeme and his team at Ski Sarajevo organised everything brilliantly. The ski area is not particularly large but there was enough to entertain us for a couple of hours each morning while our children were having ski lessons. Vesko was a really good instructor and the kids had learnt enough after a couple of days for us to then spend the afternoons together cruising the blue slopes.
The main reason we chose Jahorina was price and the total cost of the holiday was probably about half what a week in February half term would have been in the French Alps. We stayed at Hotel San which was fine: our family room was large and clean and the food was plentiful and tasty. As of 2020, very few places in the resort accept card payment so expect to pay cash for most things, including ski lessons and equipment hire. Lift passes were included in the price of the holiday and were ready for us on arrival. Although there are cash machines at some of the larger hotels, these were out of service on some days. Euros are accepted widely in place of the local currency (KM).
After five days’ skiing, we spent our final night in Sarajevo and were fortunate enough to be upgraded to the 5* Hotel Europe in the heart of the old town. We thoroughly enjoyed wandering around the historic centre, seeing the sights and relaxing in cafes (and a strange bar with a gold fish tank and a tv in the toilet!). A fantastic end to a great week. Thank you again Graeme, I couldn’t recommend Ski Sarajevo more highly!
Fantastic service, highly recommended
What fantastic service we got from Ski Sarajevo! Graeme did his best to get us the cheapest deal on our (bespoke) package (and it really was cheap), and then arranged a fabulous upgrade for us to a really luxurious apartment with half board.
The transfers were super-smooth and the Ski Sarajevo representatives couldn’t have been more helpful.
My six year-old and i were both beginner skiers and our instructor Zoltan was great – I was skiing on my own quite confidently by the third day. Bosnia is a lovely place to visit, not to mention wonderful value for money.
I can’t recommend Ski Sarajevo highly enough, and I’m already hoping to return next year.
Highly recommend – great value
We highly recommend the Ski Sarajevo package.
We booked a 7 night Sliver package and felt very well looked after the whole time. Graeme, Mustafa and our ski instructor Jelena were really great.
The mountain at Jahorina was beautiful and had good infrastructure and a good amount of runs, particularly for us as Intermediates wanting to improve.
The accomodation was great value with hearty breakfasts and dinners.
We also recommend the City Tour of Sarajevo, it was an incredible experience. A great value holiday all round.
