The best tour I've encountered in decades - Aleksandar's guided walking tour of Skopje was brilliant. He's vibrant, funny, deeply knowledgeable, and a clear and loud communicator. I recommend the tour to everyone.

Walking tour of Skopje - Alexander was fantastic. A font of knowledge. Witty, energetic with a real love for his city. It was a small group and he made sure everyone had any questions answered and felt included. What a great way to get to know Skopje and learn about all the history associated with this part of the world. Highly recommend!

An informative Walking Tour of Skopje! - I’d say this walking tour has been the most informative one I've taken in my life! Our guide, Alexander, is very passionate about sharing the stories of the city; it feels like there’s nothing he doesn’t know about Skopje. He also knows so much about the countries each participant comes from and often refers to facts about them to make his explanations easier to understand. I highly recommend this tour!

Very good guidance - gives a good overview of Skopje and the history around - Very good guide that gave us a good experience, and not least a lot of knowledge about Skopje. We also got seen a number of places / areas we hadn't gotten with us on a short weekend trip. Can safely be recommended

Hopeful Hobbits - Skopje needs Alexander and Alexander needs Skopje. Alexander is totally authentic and embodies the whole nation's attitude to life. He knows everything and everyone on the streets of Skopje, even the dogs follow him!!! He explains historical processes and the consequences of them simply and understandably with the necessary seriousness and sarcasm.
