  • Old Bazaar - Skopje
    At 9:00 our guide will pick you up from your hotel/accommodation in Skopje. Your first stop will be in the Old Bazaar area of the city. You will have the chance to hear the stories about Yugoslavia and the modern way of life in the country from a native, which will make your experience much more fulfilled. In addition, you will compare the two historical interpretations and make your own conclusions. The highlights you will visit are the Old fortress, Sultan Murat Mosques, and the Old Bazaar, where we will have the chance to see Caravanserais (inns) from the Ottoman period when Skopje was one of the main trade centers on the Balkans.
  • Skopje Fortress Kale
    After the Bazaar, you will climb on the highest hill of the city where the old fortress was situated. The remains of the fort are from the Middle Ages and the Ottoman period. You will learn about the history of those times and turbulences of the region.
  • Sultan Murad Mosque
    A mosque from the Ottoman-era, built during the 15th century. It is a masterpiece of the architectural achievements of the early Ottoman empire.
  • Macedonia Square
    To enter the new part of Skopje we will cross the Vardar River by the Stone bridge, the only preserved bridge from the Middle Ages. We will visit the new neo-classical square Macedonia. There we will admire the biggest statue of Alexander the Great and his father Phillip II. You will stop and learn the history of the ancient Macedonians and the adventures of their rulers. Despite that these rulers have never ruled from the lands of modern North Macedonia, the heritage of those famous people is in the foundations of the modern nationality of the Macedonians.
  • Memorial House of Mother Teresa
    We will continue to Mother Teresa memorial house. She is the most famous person born in Skopje. Her work and contribution to the world deserve huge respect. In the house museum, you will learn about her story and will track her life by the big photography collection. The walking part of the tour will finish at the Gate Macedonia (newly built triumphal arch). After the walking tour, you will have 2 hours of free time during which you will have the chance to have lunch and taste the traditional Macedonian cuisine. Feel free to ask your guide for recommendations.
  • Matka Canyon
    After finishing with Skopje your guide will drive you to Matka Canyon. The driving time is around 40 minutes. This is one of the most beautiful places in Macedonia. You will admire it on a boat trip inside the canyon. The boat will stop us at the entrance of a beautiful and unique cave. Your guide will show you the inside of it. After that, we start our boat journey back to the car. During it, we will pass by probably the deepest underwater cave in the world. Unfortunately, you will not be able to see it in detail.
