Appreciating the diversity of Balkan culture can be difficult, especially with limited time in the region. Explore Macedonian culture on a day tour to Skopje from Sofia, and tick off another Balkan capital in just 1 day. Enjoy the company of 2 professional guides - one from Bulgaria and one local from Macedonian. Travel the distance with ease via modern vehicle, and discover landmarks including the Skopje Fortress, Memorial House of Mother Teresa, and Old Bazaar, with insights provided by your guides. During this day tour you will have the chance to visit one of the most bizarre cities on the Balkan Peninsula. Skopje is a mixture of authentic monuments from the Ottoman period, and new neo-classical buildings, complete with ornate columns and rooftop figures of nymphs. After the reconstruction of the new center has been done, as per the “Skopje 2014” project, the city became one of the popular destinations in Eastern Europe.

Great adventure that allows you to get to know the capital of Macedonia. The city is quite small, so 4 hours are enough. The driver Ivan was very friendly.

Excellent one day trip to see North Macedonia from Sofia, Bulgaria. The trip took about 3 hours and was very comfortable in a mini van holding 8 passengers. An excellent 2 hour walking tour upon arrival took us to all of the top sites. We had 2 hours of free time to shop and eat lunch. Great day!
Comprehensive trip. Good tour guides, beautiful drive

Travelled over the Easter weekend. The group is small enough to be practical but large enough for a bit of company (for us it was about 6 people). The drive to Skopje was amazing. Some beautiful scenery We had a driver called z meikov, he was brilliant, knew so much about all sorts of things and was a decent driver. I felt well cared for. Skopje itself is very interesting, we had a sub group leader who knew loads about all sorts of different stuff including the former Yugoslavia. This made the trip very interesting. Overall highly recommended
Worth a visit.

Great trip, very well organised and laid out. Lots of interesting things to see and do. The tour in Skopje is rather long but you learn a lot along the way.
