Awesome! KTM tours is the best in Ohrid, 100% recommended for all your travel needs in Ohrid. From the moment the booking is done, they contact you pro-actively to make sure the pick-up and everything is on track. This is a crisp tour, as the region only offers such experiences : Bigorski, Duff Waterfall, Globochica artificial lake. The restaurant Miyaks is ok. Our guide Teel is cool. A comfortable daytrip
