• 5Day Trip to Ohrid

  The day trip to Ohrid was a beautiful escape from Skopje. Our driver Miki was right on time and picked us up at the hotel and brought us to Ohrid. We drove through the mountains which were snow capped and leaves that are changing color. Half way to Ohrid, Miki brought us to a place that served a delicious fried dough and yogurt breakfast. Once in Ohrid, Noumka was our local guide who showed us around her town. She was so happy and proud to show us her town. She shared local customs and traditions all while showing us places such as the amphitheater, view of the town and lake from the fort, and of course a visit to the monastery of St. John. After all of the walking we had a nice lunch by the lake. The lake side town was a nice retreat from the city. The total time was about 9 hours but well worth it.

• 5Beautiful Lake Ohrid

  I took a full day tour from Skopje to Lake Ohrid. I was picked up at 8:00 AM from my hotel in a private car. I had Christian as a driver and he was great. It took us about 3 hours to reach Ohrid, on our way we stoped in a local bakery to try a speciality fried bread which was delicious. Christian spoke good english and was very careful driver. Once we reach Lake Ohrid, my guide Ivana was waiting for us. We started the tour immediately, and our first stop was the print shop which make its own paper and used the old Gutenberg printer. After that we walked to the old town stopped at the Greco-Roman amphitheatre, then to the beautiful Byzantine Church of Virgin Mary with its incredible Frescos, then to the Ohrid castle with the its views of the beautiful lake , from the castle we walked down to Gem Church of St. John which is built of a rock cliff overlooking the lake. Ivan also arranged for me a private tour on the lake on a catamaran boat (paid separately, extra) which give you a view of the old town from the lake. After the tour I went for lunch at a local restaurant recommend by Ivana which is away from the crowded area and is on the water and their speciality is the tourt fish from the lake and the river. After lunch I had a stroll on the pedestrian area of the old town for sometime, and then connected again with my driver Christian for the drive back to Skopje which we reached it around 6:30 PM. Many thanks to my wonderful guide Ivana who was so proud of her town and was such an excellent guide and a companion for the three hours we were together. Also thanks for my driver Christian.

• 5Beautiful day in a picturesque town

  We visited Ohrid on New Year’s Eve so the town was busy and full of atmosphere. The sun was shining all day and we got amazing photos of the lake and town. Our driver Miki stopped off halfway through the drive to give us Mekitsa with some amazing cheese. Our guide in Ohrid was Filip, who knew the local area extremely well and took some great photos for us. Would highlight recommend this trip!

  Really enjoyed our time in Ohrid. It's beautiful and worth the trip from Skopje. The guide was great and very knowledgeable. Would recommend going when it isn't too hot as the tour can be brutal otherwise!

About Skopje

Skopje is the capital of North Macedonia, a Balkan city on the Vardar River with an Ottoman bazaar, a stone bridge and many statues.

Skopje straddles the Vardar River in a wide valley, its two halves joined by the fifteenth-century Stone Bridge. On the north bank the Old Bazaar is a web of lanes lined with workshops, cafés and mosques, with the Kale fortress above it. On the south bank, Macedonia Square is dominated by a giant statue of a horseman, popularly taken for Alexander the Great, amid the monuments, bridges and neoclassical façades added in the early 2010s. An earthquake in 1963 destroyed much of the city.

Top-ranked sights in Skopje: Skopje Kale Fortress (Skopsko Kale), Memorial House of Mother Teresa (Spomen Kuka na Majka Tereza), Skopje Old Bazaar.
