Saravejo War Tour

I just finished a few good books about Sarajevo during the war in the 90's and wanted to take a tour of the battle lines.  There was a tour agency across the street from the hotel The tour would take us in the hills surrounding Sarajevo as well as through the streets known as sniper alley and finally to the tunnel build under the airport to smuggle people and food in and out of Sarajevo.

Sniper Alley:
The Holiday Inn where the snipers fired down from the top floors killing women, children. and old people.
 Map showing the city surrounded. The Serbian army held all the high ground and cut off the roads so supplies, food, medicine could not make it into Sarajevo.

The war dead....
