A very enjoyable day trip! - Well organised tour to some great places around Skopje. Our guide Miha was knowledgeable and passionate about his country and only too happy to answer questions, make extra stops for others in the group to buy things etc. Nothing was a problem. The day flowed well with just enough time in each spot, good tempo... it took around 6 hours. Clean and comfortable bus and lovely fresh sandwiches and drinks provided for lunch! Thank you Olga and Miha!

Outstanding Skopje Tour - This was one the very best tours my husband and I have done over many years of travelling. Our guide Miha and his sister Olga were amazing hosts. Miha's knowledge of the history of the sights we went to see and his English were excellent all with a bit of humour added in. The transport was so clean and comfortable. We weren't rushed around from place to place as has been the case with some other tours. It was a nice mix of history and nature. We visited the main sights such as the Millennium Cross, St. Panteleimon Monastry and the most beautiful Matka Canyon where we took a boat to Vrelo cave. Then after a picnic lunch with wine, ( because the 4 of us on the tour had the time), we were able to also visit a Roman Aqueduct. A wonderful day spent with lovely people and great hosts.

Amazing tour! - With one word AMAZING. You can visit Vodno and Matka solo by public bus but the experience and information you receive during this shared tour is just unbeatable. So much background about the city, people and culture. Everything is really well organized and you don't need to worry about anything. Miha was our tour guide. What an amazing guy, you can see his passion. It looked like this is more a hobby to him rather than a job. His english is perfect and you can talk to him also in our common balkan language. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour for anyone who is visiting Skopje and want to experience something more.

Entertaining - informative - courteous! Milleniums cross and Matka Canyon with Miha from Skopje Free Walking Tour! - Unfortunately, Mikhael and Olga only run two tours in Skopje! Highly recommended! Very accommodating hosts who are not only generous, but also very happy to fulfill requests! Always friendly and informative. At the end of the tour I was even driven alone to a somewhat lesser-known destination, which is not shown on the other official programs. Other tour providers are much worse in all respects. For this price-performance ratio, you don't need to take the bus!

Matka and Vodno mountain - Enjoyed the tour so much. Matka is beautiful and the boat trip is a must. Miha and Olga were excellent and attentive guides. It actually felt like we were being shown around with friends.

Most amazing tour - Miha and his sister were amazing guides. Not only they gave us interesting information about the place we visited, but they were also very kind to us. We felt like we have known each other since years. The tour itself was absolutely stunning, Matka canyon is so beautiful. We all had the most amazing day, I would definitely recommend this tour with Miha. Thank you so much for everything! Greetings, Agnes, Judit and Attila

Canyon Matka Shared Tour - Great tour! Very informative tour guides, lots of information and happy to answer any questions. Came with lunch and wine at the Canyon. Was great to see the other attractions including the church, and the Roman aquaducts. I also highly recommend their free walking tour!
