We were collected from our hotel on time and then swapped transport in Pile to a larger vehicle. The guides on the mini bus were very informative and helpful. Nice little coffee stop on the way before the border. Border was fine, they dealt with everything smoothly. We only had an hour or so at the waterfalls but that was enough time as it’s much smaller than we expected. Mostar was excellent and we got over 3 hours there which was brilliant. Our walking guide was very good. It’s a great trip.
