About this tour
This session walks the riverside park along the Vrbas, the calm stretch of the river running through the city centre. You see the shaded path with cyclists and walkers sharing it, then the river's edge itself, explained against the faster water further upstream. It shows the gentler side of a river also known locally for rafting.
We start on the path with a sound check, then move to the river's edge for the second stop, taking questions about the water and the park's use through the seasons. A short note follows once we finish.
It suits anyone who wants a calmer, outdoor session away from the city's monuments. It also suits an early or late booking, when the park is at its quietest.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included

- Travel to the city
Itinerary

The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Banja Luka before heading out.

The park path 15 min
The camera follows the path through Mladen Stojanović City Park, and I point out the mature trees and cyclists sharing the route.
-
The river's edge 15 min
We reach the Vrbas itself, and I explain how the same river turns faster and rougher further upstream.
-
Your questions 7 min
Time to ask anything about Banja Luka: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Boska herbal liqueur and Stari Grad, worth a slower look.
Good to know

- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 10 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
