Tunnel of Hope

Such a powerful experience!
It is not that big area to walk through, it is well maintained, clean and organized. My only comment is that they could have provided a guided tour for everybody, even the movie they show is not translated to English which is too bad!! I say that because we had the chance to hear a guide there who came with another group and he spoke so passionately about the subject that it made our experience much more powerful. And that's what needs to be done to keep this place memory alive. Take your kids and teach them a great lesson in history!
Very recommended.

Really worth visiting. Such recent history. They have done great work to preserve the tunnel. You can feel the struggle that the people went through by going here.

A mind blowing, emotional experience, hard to believe this really happened in my lifetime. There are many sights in Sarajevo relating to the visit and I agree with many reviewers that this is THE one to visit.

This is the tunnel that was underneath Sarajevo airport, linking the village of Butmir and the outer suburbs of Sarajevo.. the original tunnel was 830 meters long, however, the majority has now been filled in.
There is a small section of the original tunnel (from within the house) and a newer 125 meter section. The original part is closed. You can visit the newer section.

There is a small museum with displays and information, but we most appreciated the movie that ran about 15 minutes and showed footage of the tunnel and its use and construction, and the two tunnel sections (one original, one reconstructed) that are available for you to walk through.

Unfortunately, this site is difficult to reach without a car, since it's a long distance away from town.

Quite well organized and designed historical monument. Very important to remember the past

This is an intimate look at a wartime supply and escape tunnel used to ferry people and goods into and out of the besieged city of Sarajevo. A private home turned into the key access and construction operation and a point not controlled by the opposing forces. Lots of signs and a video, but best to have a local guide who can relate the details.
There's a small section of the tunnel which you can walk through to experience. Definitely visit the much longer tunnel and memorial often missed by larger groups. Educational, haunting, tactile, uplighting and visceral.

It was such a great experience. also the guide was one of the survivor soldier from the war that give the experiment more meaningful tour.

If you are in Sarajevo you must go to understand the drama experienced by the Bosnian civilian during the siege of the city by the Serbs from 1992 to 1996. The underground tunnel was dug for 6 months without any modern tools for a length of 800 metres, 1.60 meters high and 80 cm wide, it allowed civilians to survive during the bombing. I suggest to have a local guide to better understand its history.

Should give 5 stars for the story and hope behind this tunnel fir the courage of the people of Sarajevo

Sad place. The main tunnel was closed due to maintenance (risk of collapsing they said) but still it was a nice experience. There price is 10 KM per person. And they charge 2 KM for parking which is just ridiculous.

Very impressive! I would surely recommend visiting this museum. Parking costs only 2 BIH (1euro).

Like any of recent historic places, specially a depressing one, a local guide, preferably one who saw the history in the making, is strongly recommended. Ours was fantastic. With his narrative, he painted a vivid picture of Sarajevo siege and took us back in time when the Tunnel of Hope was being dug. I've also experienced Vietnam tunnels and this was no less fascinating. Leaves you with a strong positive feeling towards humanity that can face any odd and survive.

Came here on 13 Dec 2022.
Nice historical place. Lesson learn about the war
My first winter experience in this place 🥰
Nice place to visit when u are tour Balkan.
Went in with tourist guide, not sure the ticket price

Love from Malaysia.

A very raw presentation of the war crimes commited by Serbs during The Siege of Sarajevo. This is a must see check point if you visit Sarajevo. The Olympic City in 1984 and then sieged from 1992 until 1996, with 11500 people (1600 children) murdered.

A great way to spend 2 hours. Be prepared to read a lot. This was the tunnel that saved Sarajevo. It was €10 to get in and then €3 for the audio tour which after the first five stands got a bit same same. You can learn all there is by reading the info instead of someone reading for you. Amazing what people can do. Sadly it was not enough for the 11500 people who did not make it through to the end of the siege.

Great attraction
You can go through 2 parts of the tunnel
They have exhibitions with some tools,clothes, and weapons
Also, they have a video showing real footage from when the tunnel was used
I definitely recommend a visit

Watch your head while inside the tunnel

Must visit..
Amazing experience to see and learn how the city survived under unhuman conditions, surrounded by serbian forces and snipers, who tried to kill every living hope in the city
After walking in the tunel, about 200m (the originl was 800m) ,you can watch sences that was shooted at sieges dayes unfortunately no eng sub.
But it's still important to watch.
The house became a small museum as well. You can see the tools they used to dig the tunel.

The tour was very good, I had the best ever guide Enes Popara. He is very profesional, speaks fluent english, uses his i-pad with dicumentary and photos made by himself. The tour took 4 hours, we have visited 4 objects, have seen lots of nice places. I have spent a very good time! I highly recommend this tour and the guide - please find his contacts attached

Great fast experience. No wait , average time spent from 10-45 min depended on you

There is something inherently eerie when you visit a war memorial. This is one. Well preserved thanks to the efforts of an individual with the help of the local.government. If you want to understand 0.002% of the pain Sarajevo went through, do visit the tunnel. It showcases the harshness of war with an impeccable authenticity.

A historic landmark which worth to be visited.. it shows the great spirit of Bosnian soldiers who believe in their capacity to build this tunnel of hope…
