5.00Trajce was a wonderful guide. You could tell how much he loved his town! He gave us little facts about different sites and I especially liked the little site of the little archaeological spot that still had the mosaic pictures on the walls. Job well done!

5.00Ohrid has been one of the highlights of our trip, an absolutely beautiful city filled with history, charm, and breathtaking views of Lake Ohrid. From its ancient churches to its cobblestone streets and lakeside atmosphere, every moment was special. Our tour guide was magnificent, knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the city’s rich heritage. Trajce made the experience simply unforgettable. Highly recommend visiting Ohrid with a guide who brings its history to life! Made me want to move to Ohrid! Pedro & Mili from Puerto Rico

Ohrid city tour

5.00Today with a small group had a nice city tour through Ohrid accompanied by the enthusiastic guide Trajce. He knows Ohrid like the back of his hand and really brings history to life with his captivating (and funny) way of telling. In this two-hour tour he taught us a lot about ‘his’ beautiful town. The end with a boat trip on the lake made it complete for me. If you want to know more about Ohrid, I can highly recommend this tour!
