Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
Il nostro tour leader professionista verrà a prenderti al tuo hotel a Tirana e partirà verso la Macedonia del Nord.
Struga (Macedonia settentrionale) sarà la nostra prima tappa. Faremo un aperitivo veloce vicino alla bellissima sorgente del fiume Drini, uno dei più lunghi dei Balcani occidentali.
Dopo una breve visita a Struga ci dirigeremo verso Ohrid. La città di Ohrid è una delle destinazioni più seducenti della Macedonia settentrionale, indicata come uno dei più antichi insediamenti umani di tutta Europa. La città di Ohrid e il lago di Ohrid fanno parte del patrimonio mondiale dell'UNESCO dal 1980.
Il lago di Ohrid e i suoi dintorni erano abitati dalla tribù illirica degli Enkeleys. Il lago è stato chiamato dai romani come "Lyhnidas" (il lago di luce). Il nostro tour prosegue verso la città di Ohrid (patrimonio mondiale dell'UNESCO), un importante centro dell'Ortodossia.
Visiteremo il famoso belvedere della chiesa di San Giovanni, la chiesa di San Nicola e la moschea Halveti Hayati Tekke. Ohrid divenne un importante centro per i credenti ortodossi durante l'impero bizantino ed è famosa per le sue 365 chiese ortodosse, che si dice abbiano una chiesa per ogni giorno dell'anno. Durante l'Impero Ottomano la città crebbe sulle colline e nelle zone circostanti in riva al lago. Le case sono state costruite con un'architettura molto particolare che ha creato strade strette, gallerie e minuscoli cortili sul terreno collinare, consentendo a ogni casa di avere una buona vista sul lago. Oggi la città è famosa per la sua architettura, le chiese, il castello in cima alla città, l'anfiteatro, la bellissima vista del lago circondato da montagne e le perle del lago.

We chose the private tour and glad we did! Very, very nice tour and our guide/driver Altin was great! Struga and lake Ohrid are absolutely fantastic. Tour company (Choose Balkans) is very professional and we chose to do another private tour (Berat) by booking directly with them. Highly recommend this private Macedonia tour and it is the highlight of our Terana visit!
I had an incredible private tour experience with Altin, who guided me through Struga and Ohrid. From the very beginning, it was clear that he is exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. What truly stood out was the depth of his historical insight. Altin didn’t just point out landmarks—he brought the region to life. He walked me through the rich history spanning from the Illyrian era, through the legacy of Skanderbeg, and into the Roman and Byzantine periods, explaining how these influences contributed to what can essentially be seen as the roots of Albanian identity. His ability to connect these eras in a meaningful and engaging way made the experience feel like a living history lesson. He also provided a thoughtful and balanced perspective on more recent history, explaining how various Slavic countries navigated the challenges of war and communism. It added an important layer of context to everything we saw and discussed. On top of that, the Choose Balkans arranged a Mercedes E-Class for my private tour, which made the entire experience even more comfortable and enjoyable.
We had a wonderful trip to Struga and Ohrin, thanks to our fantastic driver and guide, Altin! He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured our comfort and safety throughout our journey! The return trek is not for the faint of heart, with navigating and traversing on such twisty, winding roads, but Altin was a true champion! Further, I appreciated the clear communication of pick-up point, and I he fact that he was there waiting for us, with a smile. We experienced beautiful weather and stunning views from the castle, and monastery. There is a significant amount of walking across uneven terrain, so please be mindful, and choose this trip accordingly based on your walking/fitness abilities. It is a full day activity, but incredibly worth it!
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thanks again for sharing your experience, and we hope to see you on another tour in the future!
The tour of Lake Ohrid was one of the highlights of our trip. The lake area was stunning, with so much natural beauty and fascinating history. What made our tour extra-special was our guide, Ilir. We cannot say enough about his encyclopedic knowledge, infectious love of history, and all-around kindness. We took this tour at the end of our stay in Albania, and by that time we were starting to tire, but we are SO GLAD we went - we made memories that we will treasure always.
Altin was absolutely awesome. He was a wealth of knowledge and very professional. He was very thorough in explaining the Albanian and Macedonian history to us. We enjoyed our time both in Struga and Lake Ohrid.
Our “small group” turned out to be a private tour!! Worth the drive. The lake, the fort, the old town, the bazaar, all top notch. St John’s is beautiful but sadly was closed due to the caretaker having some sort of emergency. Many many churches. Do not miss St. Sofia church and its frescos. Amazing driver/guide Marco. Enjoyed typical Macedonian food with him. Highly skilled driver and he even gave us good recommendations for dinner back in Tirana
Our experience was amazing. Toni was the best tour guide I’ve ever experienced. He made sure we hit all the spots. He took his time with us and explained everything. He was very professional, friendly and funny.
we had an amazing day. The tour guide is extremely helpful. Thank you very much, highly recommend this excursion. Michelle
Ilir was a very knowledgeable tour guide and did a great job showing us around Lake Ohrid. We had an amazing time!
Ermest went above and beyond to make us have an amazing day in North Macedonia. We enjoyed his company so much. Choose Balkens is such a professional tour company ensuring all their guests have an enjoyable time. I would highly recommend any tour with this company!
