The Perfect Tour

5.00This was a very special visit just outside the town of Ohrid to a family-run distillery. The property sits against a beautiful backdrop of mountains and vineyards. There are cute puppies, traditional local food, and plenty of wine and raki. Stefan will take great care of you, even driving you around on his tractor! It was a lot of fun, a total surprise, and absolutely worth it.
Fantastic good and fun tour!

5.00Stefan took us so well! He even picked us up in the mountain town! We felt like wanted guests and had a very nice stay! Full tour with tractor on the whole farm, tasted fruit from the trees and drank several types of wine and raki! The food was great - in abundant quantities! It was an honor to come to visit!
Must do for real Bulkan experience

5.00We planned this wine tasting with our family as we wanted a real Bulkan experience and that is exactly what we got. Our kids even loved it and got to play with all the animals especially the puppies. It was amazing! Stefan and Ivanka made us feel like part of the family, they showed us around their property, they let us try all the different rakia and wine. The food was plentiful and delicious. The views were stunning. It was so relaxing and a memory we can all take with us. We even purchased some wine and rakia to take home. Thank you for the wonderful evening. We are so grateful you welcomed us to your amazing property.
Wonderful!

5.00Wow - what an amazing place - a charming working farm and winery in a beautiful location close to Ohrid. Stefan and Ivana were perfect hosts. We enjoyed copious amounts of lovely rajika, wine and fruit liqueur produced at the farm using fruits grown on the farm along with a delicious cheese and meat platter (cheese also produced on the farm by Stefan's uncle) - with tour of the winery and explanation of the processes given. We also really enjoyed meeting Stefan's pets and farm animals. To top it off Stefan took us around the village by tractor! Extremely well organised (including pick-up and drop-off) and very good value - we recommend this trip 100%.
We left with full bellies and hearts, authenticity at its best!

5.00We had a wonderful day with Stefan, his partner and family. Everything was homemade and ticked off a lot of things we wanted to try while in Macedonia. The rakija was delicious, and we were able to sample Stefan's favourite plum flavour (smaller batch, so an absolute treat!) The plate provided with the rakija was huge and included homemade goats cheese, condiments and biscuits. Between the rakija tasting and the wine tasting we went on a tractor ride around the village and had a beautiful view of the mountains. We opted for the traditional lunch and did not regret it! The wine went well with the food and they even went to the extra effort of bottling our favourite red to buy and take home! We were also gifted a sample of rakija each and cake! Could not recommend enough! We'd go again and recommend to anyone we know heading to Ohrid.
