G Adventures will soon be offering an extended program of trips to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The new trips are launching as the result of a collaboration between the U.S. Government’s USAID Developing Sustainable Tourism in Bosnia and Herzegovina (USAID Turizam) initiative, the Global Travel & Tourism Resilience Council (GTTRC), and G Adventures.
Yves Marceau, VP of Product for G Adventures, said:
“The Balkans is a special part of the world that is growing in popularity as people move beyond traditional European destinations.
“As more travellers start to visit, it’s important that tourism develops the right way – a way that supports local people and communities.
“Travel is a two-way exchange, and we’re excited to introduce our new trips in 2025.
“This collaboration is a powerful example of how rural and local communities that are not on the main tourism route can benefit when governments, NGOs and private social enterprises work together to do the right thing.
Karl Wurster, Director of the Economic Development Office at USAID/BiH said:
“We are pleased to launch our collaboration with G Adventures, a company that takes travellers from around the world to more than 100 countries.
“What’s most impressive is G Adventures’ commitment to community tourism, which will ensure the long-term sustainability of tourism development in Bosnia and Herzegovina,” says Wurster.
As part of the new partnership, representatives from G Adventures will be visiting Bosnia and Herzegovina to explore new destinations, services and experiences to expand existing itineraries and introduce new and extended trips.
Here, USAID Turizam will introduce G Adventures to suppliers and service providers to discuss ideas for future on-trip experiences
USAID Turizam and G Adventures will also collaborate on international media familiarization trips to help increase interest in the country and the new program.
GTTRC will be presenting this collaboration at its events as an example of a positive model for sustainable tourism development.
