An Invitation

A Journey Through the Heart of the Balkans

We are delighted to invite you on our next Sacred Balkans & Bosnian Pyramids Adventure — a unique journey through some of the most beautiful, inspiring, and culturally rich places in the Balkans.

This special journey combines ancient history, living traditions, breathtaking landscapes, and meaningful connections with like-minded people. Along the way, we will explore the Bosnian Pyramids, pristine rivers, ancient forests, Croatian stone-built coastal towns, Ottoman-era cities, sacred sites, and places of profound cultural, historical, and spiritual significance.

As always, we travel in our signature slow-paced style, allowing time to truly connect with the land, the people, and each other. More than a tour, this is a moving retreat. Our intention is not simply to collect photographs, but to experience these places deeply and carry their gifts home as living memories.

We believe that travel can be a powerful catalyst for transformation when we allow ourselves the time and space to fully embrace a place and its stories.

Through shared meals, walks in nature, bus conversations, evening gatherings, and moments of quiet reflection, we will explore the many layers of history, culture, mythology, and memory woven throughout the Balkans. As locals, Tara and Manu will share their love for these lands and the experiences, stories, and insights gathered over many years of exploration.

Special Guests

Steven & Evan Strong

Internationally recognised researchers whose work explores ancient civilizations, Indigenous wisdom traditions, archaeology, cultural memory, and humanity's forgotten past.

We are honoured to be joined by Steven and Evan Strong on this extraordinary journey. Over many years of research, they have investigated ancient sites throughout Australia and beyond, exploring questions about humanity's origins, forgotten histories, and the deeper connections that may exist between cultures separated by vast distances and spans of time.

One area of particular interest is the recurring appearance of the Seven Sisters tradition. Known as the Pleiades in astronomy, the Seven Sisters feature prominently in many Aboriginal traditions across Australia — and in many other ancient cultures around the world. Whether these parallels point to ancient connections, shared human memories, or universal patterns within human culture remains an open question.

Throughout the journey, Steven and Evan will share stories, perspectives, and discoveries gathered over decades of research — enriching our exploration of the Balkans and the Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids.

In 2025, Steven and Evan Strong met Dr. Sam Osmanagich during his visit to Australia. What began as a conversation between researchers soon developed into an ongoing friendship and collaboration exploring ancient sites, cultural memory, and humanity's deeper past.

The Destination

The Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids

The final stage of our journey takes us to the Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids, one of the most fascinating and discussed ancient sites in Europe.

Here we will explore the Pyramid of the Sun, the Ravne Tunnels, the giant stone spheres, and other key locations that continue to attract researchers, explorers, and visitors from around the world. For us, the Bosnian Pyramids invite larger questions about history, culture, human potential, and the knowledge that may still be waiting to be rediscovered.

They remind us that history may be richer, deeper, and more interconnected than we have been taught.

Annual Gathering

Bosnian Pyramids Summer Solstice Conference & Celebrations

Held each year in the Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids in Visoko, Bosnia & Herzegovina, the Summer Solstice Conference & Celebrations brings together researchers, authors, explorers, artists, speakers, and visitors from around the world for several days of presentations, discussions, music, cultural events, and shared experiences.

Set against the backdrop of the Bosnian Pyramid complex and the annual Summer Solstice, the gathering offers opportunities to explore the Valley, visit the Ravne Tunnels and pyramid sites, attend presentations by international speakers, and connect with people who share an interest in ancient history, archaeology, culture, consciousness, and humanity's deeper story.
