Privat dagstur i Ohrid, Nordmakedonien från Tirana och Durres
Beskrivning
Enligt UNESCO är Ohrid en av de äldsta mänskliga bosättningarna i Europa, belägen vid Ohridsjön, en av världens äldsta och djupaste sjöar. I århundraden har staden varit en korsning av kulturer, traditioner och historiska influenser, formade av många civilisationer. Känd som "Jerusalem på Balkan", spelade Ohrid en nyckelroll i spridningen av slavisk ortodoxi. På sin höjdpunkt var det hem för 365 kyrkor - en för varje dag på året - varav många går tillbaka till 1000-talet och förblir viktiga arkitektoniska och andliga landmärken. Denna privata tur inkluderar också ett besök i en närliggande traditionell bergsby vid foten av Jablanicabergen. Med kullerstensstigar, friska källor och äkta landsbygdsliv, erbjuder det en lugn tillflyktsort och en inblick i Nordmakedoniens kulturarv, allt i din egen takt med en dedikerad Guide.

Beläget på klippan över Kaneo-stranden med utsikt över sjön Ohrid i staden Ohrid, norra Makedonien. Kyrkan är tillägnad Johannes av Patmos, uppenbarelsens författare, som av vissa har ansetts vara samma person som Johannes aposteln.
Besök stadens centrum och området Old Bazaar där vi ser de typiska husen i Ohrid. De flesta av staden är stenlagda i sten, en anledning till att den först kallades Lyhnidas från det latinska språket (en ädelsten som avger ljus.
När vi lämnar Tirana klockan 09:00 tar vi kursen mot sydöstra Albanien. Efter att ha kommit in i den makedonska gränsen är den första staden Struga, uppkallad efter en forntida lokal legend av en ung pojke. Ohrid ligger bredvid Stuga, vid stranden av samma sjö i århundraden har varit platsen då olika kulturer måste möta varandra. Grundat från antika Ilirain och grekiska stammar har passerat i många olika riling system som romerska, byzantinska, bulgariska, turkiska, serbiska, jugoslaviska och har nyligen ingått i den oberoende republiken norra Makedonien. Beläget i stadens kullar byggdes den under regeringen av den bulgariska tsaren Samuil på 10-talet. Det antas att det har inbyggt bosättningarna i ett forntida befästning av fjärde århundradet f. Kr., Byggt av Philip 2nd.
En del av vår tur inkluderar ett naturskönt stopp i en traditionell bergsby, inbäddat vid foten av bergskedjan Jablanica. Denna by är känd för sina naturliga källor, fridfulla omgivningar och äkta makedonsk charm, och erbjuder en uppfriskande paus från den livliga sjösidan. Du får chansen att utforska de smala kullerstensgatorna, beundra rustika stenhus och njuta av det lugnande ljudet av strömmande vatten som slingrar sig genom området. Det är ett perfekt ögonblick att få kontakt med naturen, ta bilder eller helt enkelt insupa den lugna atmosfären innan vi fortsätter vår resa.
Exklusiv Authentic Village stopp, inte ett känt turistmål, men kommer att vara ett bra sätt att uppleva byns skönhet och livsstil i Nordmakedonien.

I have traveled the globe and taken tour after tour but this particular company and the operator, Redi, was the very best! Simply historic, comfortable, easy, and I traveled with my wife, dog, and two kids! Take the tour!
A really interesting day out from Tirana, expertly driven and guided by Endri who was a mind of information, not just about the historical sights but also day to day life before and after communism rule. Absolutely top draw day out.
After searching the web, we decided to book our day trip to North Macedonia and Ohrid via Go as Local. What we liked was that we could book a privat tour, for the two of us. Contact with the company was seemless and great. All e-mails were answered quickly, also the payment online was easy. The tour itself was wonderful. Our guide, Redi, met us at the agreed time and place in Tirana. Redi was our driver and guide, and was fantastic. He was very proficient in English and had great knowledge about all we visited. The drive was great, and he took well care of us. We put in a short stop in Struga before reaching Ohrid. What we both liked about the tour, was that is was not rushed. Redi let us take our time. It was more like being with friends on a trip, not a stressed guided tour. All the highlights in Ohrid were visited, and Redi kept giving us all the information we needed. We had a great lunch at a local restaurant before continuing our trip to the last stop which was St. Naum's monastary. We had a full, enjoyable day, learning many things about the history and culture of Ohrid and its' surroundings. This was a fantastic day, thanks to Redi our guide. We can wholeheartedly recommend this trip and using the company Go as Local.
We took the private day tour from Tirana to Ohrid with Armand and it was a truly unforgettable experience. Armand is likeable, engaging and very prepared — you can clearly feel the passion he puts into his work. He customized the tour according to our needs and was committed to making the most of the day. The sites visited were simply breathtaking. Although it was a long day, with a long way to go on foot, it was absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!
I had been dreaming of visiting Lake Ohrid for a very long time and it’s been a truly magical experience 🤩 I picked Go As Local a bit by coincidence and I couldn’t be more grateful… 🙏 They were highly responsive & super professional. My guide was not only an amazing driver that made me feel super safe at all times, but he was also extremely knowledgeable and attentive. Loved every minute of the tour; I’d 100% recommend booking a tour with them.
This was a last minute decision as I was waiting on the weather and it turned out to be a perfect day. It was an easy, comfortable journey with easy border crossings. The lake is absolutely beautiful. The town of Ohrid is picturesque and superbly located on the shore. The Ottoman architecture and winding streets were so nice. I think I would return spend longer there just relaxing. It was nice to visit out of season when it was not so busy. My guide, Engjëll, was super informative and friendly - we had a great day.
A great solo trip, where I discovered the beauty of Lake Ohrid and this city. Endri was an excellent guide. Although the trip is long, the views are stunning! Endri knows his history too! Worth every penny!
Great tour!! I enjoyed very much!! The guide Xhulio was awesome! Told me everything about the history of the place and beyond. Had a great time!! Highly recommended
Wow! Beautiful city! Charming roads/cobble stones to walk around! Local dishes and coffee facing the lake was well worth it! Second tour with Julio!
I did the day tour to Ohrid in North Macedonia with Daniel, a resident of Tirana, and can’t rate him too highly. He was well informed about history and many other subjects. Equally important to me, he was personable, friendly and amusing. I was picked up at my hotel in Tirana and dropped back there for the ultimate in convenience. Ohrid Lake and the city are beautiful, rich in history and intriguing. I can’t rate this experience any higher and strongly recommend both the tour and Daniel.
