Excursão de um dia a Skopje, Macedônia do Norte - Small Group





Descrição
Apreciar a diversidade da cultura dos Balcãs pode ser difícil, especialmente com tempo limitado na região. Explore a cultura macedônia em uma excursão de um dia a Skopje, saindo de Sófia, e marque outra capital dos Balcãs em apenas 1 dia. Aproveite a companhia de 2 guias profissionais - um da Bulgária e um local da Macedônia. Viaje com facilidade através de veículos modernos e descubra pontos de referência, incluindo a Fortaleza de Skopje, a Casa Memorial de Madre Teresa e o Bazar Antigo, com informações fornecidas por seus guias. Durante esta excursão de um dia, você terá a chance de visitar uma das cidades mais bizarras da Península Balcânica. Skopje é uma mistura de monumentos autênticos do período otomano e novos edifícios neoclássicos, completos com colunas ornamentadas e figuras de ninfas no telhado. Após a reconstrução do novo centro, conforme o projeto "Skopje 2014", a cidade se tornou um dos destinos populares na Europa Oriental.
Opções de passeio
Itinerário
Nosso passeio de um dia para Skopje começará com o embarque em seu hotel/acomodação localizado no centro de Sófia às 08:00. Após aproximadamente 4 horas de viagem, chegaremos a Skopje. Durante a longa viagem, você aprenderá o ponto de vista búlgaro sobre a história da região. Então você terá duas horas de visita guiada pela cidade feita por um guia local macedônio. Você terá a chance de ouvir as histórias sobre a Iugoslávia e o modo de vida moderno no país de um nativo, o que tornará sua experiência muito mais gratificante. Além disso, você comparará as duas interpretações históricas e tirará suas próprias conclusões. Os destaques que você visitará são a Fortaleza Velha, as Mesquitas do Sultão Murat e o Bazar Velho, onde teremos a chance de ver Caravanserais (pousadas) do período otomano, quando Skopje era um dos principais centros comerciais dos Bálcãs.
Fortaleza histórica localizada no ponto mais alto de Skopje, de onde você terá a chance de admirar a vista deslumbrante da cidade.
Uma mesquita da época otomana, construída durante o século XV. É uma obra-prima das realizações arquitetônicas do início do império otomano.
Atravessaremos o rio Vardar pela ponte de pedra, a única ponte preservada da Idade Média e iniciaremos a exploração da nova parte da cidade.
Visitaremos a nova praça neoclássica da Macedônia. Lá admiraremos a maior estátua de Alexandre, o Grande, e de seu pai Phillip II. Você vai parar e aprender a história dos antigos macedônios e as aventuras de seus governantes.
Continuaremos na casa memorial de Madre Teresa. Ela é a pessoa mais famosa nascida em Skopje. Seu trabalho e contribuição para o mundo merecem enorme respeito. No museu da casa, você aprenderá sobre a história dela e acompanhará sua vida pela grande coleção de fotografias. A parte a pé do passeio terminará no Gate Macedonia (arco triunfal recém-construído). Após o passeio a pé, você terá 2 horas de tempo livre, durante as quais terá a chance de almoçar e provar a cozinha tradicional da Macedônia. O passeio terminará com o desembarque em seu hotel em Sofia

Best experince. The guides were Amazing! Dimitri, very friendly and curtious! In skopje… exeptinal guide.. the best for learning the marcedonian history. Worth the trip! 👌🏽
A Great way to sample North Macedonia in few hours . Katarina was an excellent guide as well as driver taking us to Skjope. She handled the whole border crossing with ease, gave us lots of information about Bulgaria and its history with Macedonia in a fun light hearted way. Lina the tour guide in Skjope was also excellent and talked with passion about her home city, really would recommend the day out
It was a long day, but we’re glad we went! The border crossing experience was interesting but all good. The driver was so funny & very informative! There was time to see city & eat lunch though would suggest ending guided tour at entrance to Old Bazaar to allow more time to see shops etc
We really liked this excursion. We didn't really know what to expect when booking, but we were pleasantly surprised. In 1963, there was an earthquake that destroyed 80% of the city. The activity allows us to see the structures that held up as well as the reconstruction efforts. The local guide explained the history of the city to us, and we had a little free time at the end. The vehicle was comfortable. The planning was very good. The driver/guide gave us explanations during the trip. Recommended if you have little time to discover North Macedonia.
From beginning to end, it was a great trip, our driver was very knowledgeable about history and he explained things to us in detail and shared a lot of very interesting information. The journey was quite fast and the city is very pretty, although I think they could give us an additional hour or two to explore it more calmly.
This is a minivan trip taking approx 4 hours each way with 4 hours in Skopje. The guide picked us up on time and the trip to Skopje including the border crossing went smoothly. The guide even reminded us to switch off data roaming if we didn’t have a plan that covered North Macedonia. The Skopje tour itself was by a knowledgeable local guide who was obviously passionate about her culture and heritage while also giving some good practical tips to optimise the 2 hours of free time available after the tour. Skopje itself is well worth a visit I think we would return and spend a couple of nights there as 4 hours does not really do it justice. The trip back to Sofia was again smooth and we were back at our hotel before 8PM. Overall good value for money if tacked on to a visit to Sofia but if you can spend a few nights in Skopje.
I am so glad I did this trip as the day was wonderful. At first, I was worried that the drive to Skopje would be too much and that the day would be long, but that is not the case. The drive to and from actually took no more than 3.5 hours each time, but I think it’s because the border crossings went very quickly. The van is comfortable (see picture). The driver (Kiko) was friendly, hospitable, welcoming, engaging, and always made sure we were ok with toilet breaks. The female guide at Skopje (I forgot her name), was also friendly and engaging providing so much interesting information. The guide and the driver really took care of us. When arriving, you will have two hours with the guide, and two hours solo. Both solo time and time with the guide flew by. The guides will tell you so much about political history, architecture, people, and historic events and historic figures. This was a fun day. Don’t forget your passports, bottle of water, and sunscreen!
Ivan is a fantastic tour guide! He is very knowledgeable, great driver and strategic with out time. I really enjoyed the tour and highly recommend!
Great experience with a friendly, knowledgeable guide (Tuni), small group (6 guests), comfortable transportation and convenient hotel pickup/drop off. Tuni ensured we had a hassle-free experience at the border crossing and comfort stops along the way to/from Skopje. The local Skopje guide (Laina?) was fantastic as well! We spent 2 hours learning the city's history and sites with her, then had 2 hours to explore on our own This is a great city to visit for anyone with an interest in Christian historical figures/events {Mother Theresa, Holy Savior Church, Saints Cyril & Methodius).
The tour of Skopje was amazing. The drive to and from, however, was harrowing. In fact, the driver got a ticket on the way back (he should've gotten several).
