Fantastic day out in lovely scenic locations! Canyon Matka is very beautiful. Nice to be out in the fresh air & the countryside & see a different side of Skopje. Excellent tour guide (Miha) who explained a lot about Macedonian history & life today. Comfortable new aircon van to travel in. Lovely driver who doubled as a butler during our picnic stop.

Very good
The tour guide was super. Explained everything very well in a humorous way. Everything went optimally.
However, it can be mentioned that the Millennium Cross cannot be visited at the moment due to the cable car that has been broken for months.

THE BEST TRIP!
A fantastic trip. You absolutely must not miss this when you are in Skopje. So well organized and we saw such beautiful places. Our guide Mischa is an absolutely incredible person. So genuinely interested in the places and told us so much about their country. Thank you very much ❤️!

That you cannot go to the "Millennium Cross" by cable car.
Out of order.

Great trip!
Our guide was very friendly, passionate and informative which made for a really enjoyable trip. It was a good length and the sights were obviously beautiful! The tour doesn’t go up to the millennium cross anymore as the chair lift isn’t it use but we still went up to a spot with panoramic views of Skopje

Pleasant day trip, unfortunately without the Millennium Cross
I asked several times before the tour if there would be vegetarian food, but I never received an answer. One day before the tour, we went to the booking office in person and it was confirmed to us there. Unfortunately, it was not possible to see the Millennium Cross because maintenance work was being carried out on the cable car. However, we were informed about this in advance. Before we left, we were offered a free coffee. The tour to Matka Canyon was very pleasant. Unfortunately, the tour guide talked almost non-stop in English and also told us a lot of things that had nothing to do with the actual tour. I thought it was very nice that he bought my son an ice cream. We then had the choice of whether we wanted to take a simple boat or a new, slightly more luxurious one. Our group decided unanimously to pay the small surcharge, and it was worth it. The seats were really very comfortable, the ride was pleasant, and the scenery was dreamlike. I had imagined the cave itself to be a bit larger. Unfortunately, it was only a very small part that you could visit. Most of it is probably underwater. Afterwards, we drove to the Church of St. Panteleimon and took a look at it. Everything was also explained to us in great detail here. The view from there over the city of Skopje was also impressive. We drove a bit higher up the mountain and had the announced brunch there at a rest area. There were croissants filled with cheese and olives, accompanied by wine or juice. It was very tasty, but I had imagined something different for a brunch. A lot more was told to us there about the history of (North) Macedonia. Before we drove back, we still had the opportunity to take some photos of the beautiful view.

On a trip on cold water
The tour is definitely worth it. I don't know why they keep writing that there is a climb to the cross because the cable car has been out of service for a long time and will be for a long time to come. The boat trip in the canyon (which is actually an artificial lake from 1930) is very spectacular, while the caves in the end don't say much, even if it seems that under the internal lake there is a 240 m "hole". You can pay for the boat trip to the cave in euros (10€). The church of St. Panteleimon is also interesting because some 13th-century frescoes are truly spectacular. The final picnic in a equipped area in the woods is also nice. The guide is excellent. We leave at 9:30 and return to Skopje at about 3 on comfortable vans.
