Macedonia Eco Tours

Zorica was an exceptional tour leader who went above and beyond for us as a group. The trip was varied with lots of interesting historical sites but also the chance to enjoy the landscape and discover interesting local places.

I enjoyed this trip enormously and learned a lot about Ancient Macedonia as well as the modern countries. Our tour guide, Elena, was excellent. She was well organised, always cheerful and positive, was very knowledgeable and always kept us well informed. The additional guides at different sites were also excellent. We had a friendly driver in Zoki, who drove us with great care through magnificent scenery. I enjoyed all the historic sites, but was especially amazed at the treasures from Philip II tomb at Vergina. I also liked exploring all the towns and cities we stayed in and enjoyed the company of our fellow travellers.

Excellent tour. Guide Elena was outstanding and driver Zoki was excellent. Learned so much about the region and history of Ancient Macedonia. The hotel in Skopje, Hotel Centar, was ok but its location was in the middle of several construction sites which was not great. There were several long drives during the tour but due to the distances covered understandable. Was disappointed with Kratovo although the pipes, herb making and lunch were good. All in all a great trip

This is a varied and well paced trip across 3 countries, including visits to many ancient sites, monasteries, beautiful scenery, boat trips and a day by the sea. There are some excellent museums in Sofia so it's worth going out a day or two early if you want to see them as a few are closed on Mondays.

This is a fascinating and well balanced itinerary. There is consistency, continuity and variety in the sites and sights, so you are left feeling very satisfied at the depth of exploration and the numerous”wow” experiences. Some of the scenery is magical, very little that is boring. The trip pace is good, never exhausting, good variation between travel and walking, with several multi- night stops and interludes of free time Last, but not least, our tour leader, Zorica, was perfection. Organisation and arrangements resembled a well oiled machine, but with the priiceless accompaniment of lovely personality, excellent knowledge and communication skills. No orders, just a gentle “Shall we….” had us moving in the right direction, most willingly. She was also backed up by a very capable and personable driver.

I am not a historian or an archaeologist but this trip was brought to life by having such an exceptional tour guide ( & coach driver) plus the local guides were 5*
