In this episode I catch up with Danilo Boznić, a local tour guide in Banja Luka.
We delve into the potential the country has to become a top travel destination, Danilo's personal experience as a tour guide, and the challenges Bosnia faces due to negative perceptions.
We chat about the importance of slow tourism, cultural understanding, and the impact of infrastructure, such as the local airport, on tourism.
Danilo also discusses his approach to personalised tourism experiences, and his aspirations for Bosnia's future tourism sector.
