We enjoyed the great knowledge of Aleksandar and we liked the tour. He took care of us and told us a lot about Skopje, history of Macedonia. Big recommendation!!
Aleksandar is a wonderful guide with lots of current and historical information that provides you with an understanding of the country, in addition to identifying the key sites in the city and beyond that are worth visiting. We enjoyed the entire time and he is well known and liked by many passers by, shop keepers and the resident dog population. Highly recommend!
Aleksander was very informative and extremely passionate about his country. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Skopje 👍👍👍
Aleksandar arrived puntually, told us the stories behind Skopje's most iconic sites in a funny and entertaining way; we had an interesting tour experience of the city, he was patient and always smiling as he explained the unique characteristics of Balkan culture to us. Highly recommended!!
very interesting tour with highlights knowledgeable and entertaining Aleksander!
I really liked the tour and learned a lot about Skopje and Macedonia. We also discovered some hidden gems of the city and got some restaurant tipps.
The guide was very entertaining while walking us through the most important sites of the capital city of North Macedonian. I would definitely recommend this tour if you would like to have an overview of the major highlights of the city and hear at the same time undisclosed stories on the past and present of Skopje.
This was an amazing tour. Alexsander, bar none, is/was the most knowledgeable tour guide we have ever had. He mixed in humor, an excellent description of the history, and a humility of what it is like living in North Macedonia!
