A spectacle of nature..
Very good trip, guide was very nice and friendly. A tasty brunch is included. A beautiful experience to recommend!
Between the beauty of the canyon, the church and our guide, Miha’s stories, it was a very nice half day outing in a comfortable van, well organized and interesting. The boat ride & cave visit are well worth it. The little picnic at the end was charming.
Great experience although the cable car is currently broken.
Miha and Kiril were awesome. They were accommodating and nice. They also shared a lot of cool history and facts
Miha was very entertaining, knowledgeable, caring and nice. He had the audience with him all day. He told about many different things about Macedonia but also ancient history. He made sure everyone had enough water and nourishment throughout the day. Miha was responsive to the audience, and careful to answer all questions.
I would highly recommend this tour. Matka Canyon is without question a highlight of Skopje. Miha was awesome. He was personable, knowledgeable, and passionate about the city he was born in. He shared a lot of stories and some of the history of Skopje and answered any and all questions that we had. I had a great time on the tour and I think it’s a must do in Skopje. He also went above and beyond to make sure that everyone was happy and comfortable on the tour. It’s worth the few extra dollars you might have to spend. You won’t be disappointed.
Great experience and day exploring some mist visit spots! Guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The van is comfortable with good A/C.
Mika was a fantastic tour guide. He’s very knowledgeable about all things North Macedonia and clearly very passionate about sharing his culture and this part of the world with others. The tour itself was interesting and informative with beautiful scenery. Note- we didn’t visit the Millennium Cross as the cable cars are not functioning at present as they’re undergoing safety upgrades.
Miha was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his country and shared information and stories so wonderfully. Kiril drove us but they both were so hospitable and cared for the group. It was excellent.
