Back in the village we will make ourselves useful and help for example milking cows, picking fruits or cooking.

After this excursion into the past, we will visit the center of the city, Bascarsija, where we will taste the world famous "Sarajevski cevap", a traditional Bosnian dish in probably one of the best cevap places in the world. Strengthened, we return to our hotel to end the day at leisure.

Before continuing the drive to the winery, we will stop at an old fishing lake and an important place in Montenegrin history - Rijeka Crnojevica. Since the whole region is known as a wine region, we will take the opportunity to visit one of the local family wineries in one of the villages around the lake.
