Excellent half day tour... - Excellent half day tour with very good guide Bona !! She was really helpful and gave all the usefull information. The options the details everything was fine. However we had a very bad rainy weather so we could not see the Millenium Cross. The only remark i have to do and it was really something to correct was that the driver left us so far and because of the heavy rain we all got wet !!! He should come and pick up more close

Terrific Edges of Skopje - Terrific way to see some lovely locations at the edges of Skopje that would be challenging to reach solo. Naser was very knowledgeable, helpful, and respectful of cultures. I would recommend this day-trip to anyone visiting Skopje. Be sure to bring cash (in Dinars or Euros).

Matko Canyon - Our tour guide was great. I applaud her for leaving two people at the start for not showing up on time. Unfortunately at the first stop we had a couple that did not return on time. This held up the group. I once again applaud her for making this clear and in future she would leave anybody behind. The tour itself was exactly what we expected. Thank you

Good kind people - The guide was kind and very engaging . Except the canyon the other stops were ok. The model village was sub par. The tour scheduled for Mondays should indicate that Millennium cross is not accessible on Mondays

Good. - The guide was very good. The program a little average. The so-called "village" is not interesting. A smaller group would have been better too.
