Great day out. Early start but had a fascinating drive through the mountains. Ohrid is so beautiful. There was such a lot to see. Oliver and Dua were great guides. Loved it.

This was a truly fantastic tour, the scenery and landscape in Lake Ohrid was simply breathtaking. I loved how we were dropped off at the top of the mountain and hiked down through the beautiful quaint village with cobbled streets and pretty churches to the stunning lake. Once at the bottom, everything is a feast for the eyes! We took a boat trip and this finished the tour perfectly. A very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide, he never rushed us and we went at a good pace. All in all, an incredible day, the highlight of my entire trip in North Macedonia. Highly recommend!
