Discover the charm of Ohrid on a full-day group tour departing from Skopje. This experience combines a guided walking tour with visits to some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, including the oldest lake in Europe (yes that's right!), Lake Ohrid, the Ancient Theatre, Samoil’s Fortress, and the Church of St. John at Kaneo. As part of the tour, you’ll visit the Ohrid Ancient Theatre, one of the oldest in the region, before heading up to Samoil’s Fortress for panoramic views over the city and lake. The route continues to the Church of St. John at Kaneo, perched dramatically above the water and famous for its picture-perfect setting.

After a full day of exploring, the tour concludes with a comfortable return journey to Skopje.
