This is how all city walks in the world should be done - I think I have never been grinning this much during any city walks before. It was a perfect balance of fact and good sense of humor. The guide Aleksandar was a man with experience of how the world works and how Skopje fits in to everything. This is a tour to take on your first day or the last day and still get so much more out of it than you pay for it.

The best tour in Skopje! - Aleksandar provided a very knowledgeable and insightful tour of the city, in a very professional way without being overwhelming. He told us everything you needed to know in a humorous manner, and always answered any questions we could have had. I definitely would recommend this walking tour to anyone who wants to experience Skopje from a slightly different angle!

The real deal of Skopje - Aleksandar is genuine with information he provided during the Skopje walking tour. He is a world of knowledge regarding the history of North Macedonia as well as the rest of the Balkan countries. He doesn't sugar coat any of the information. I went on another walking tour a few days prior to Aleksandar's tour and it was horrible. The guide basically took us to different buildings and statues along the river as well as a small section of old town. I had learned so much from Aleksandar in just two hours than any other tour guide during my week in North Macedonia. Aleksandar was enthusiastic, friendly and professional. If you have a couple of hours to spare while in Skopje, you will not regret by taking his walking tour.

Skop yeah! - Alexander was super knowledgeful and passionate Macedonian. Understood alot more about the Balkans and Macedonia after the tour and would highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic tour experience. Surprised by the realism, delighted by the humour, disappointed by nothing. Was one of the better walking tours of European capitals I've done.
