“We absolutely loved our trip to Lake Ohrid with Nolan - he was a very knowledgeable and helpful guide, as was our Macedonian guide Philip in Ohrid itself. The lake water is unbelievably clear, the red churches are picturesque, and the autumn landscape was peaceful and truly stunning in the gorgeous October sunshine. Lake Ohrid quickly became one of our favourite places we have ever visited. It is a long day out, but well worth it - thank you!”

“Worth every penny! I can't say enough good things about our guide, Toni, and our full day tour into North Macedonia. Toni is so knowledgeable about history of the whole region, and shared stories with us the whole trip. His speaks excellent English, better than any guide we've had so far, and was very attentive to our interests and pace. We had a slight hiccup when there was a delay at passport control coming back to Albania with lots of traffic, but he handled it gracefully and patiently and took the extra time to fill us in with some more history and ideas for our remaining days in Albania.
