Today we took a boat tour from Ohrid to st. Naum with Lale tours. It lasted all day (from 9 am until 6pm). We were picked from our hotel, taken to the boat and the tour started. The guide Daniel is very nice guy who speeks good english and is very witty and funny. We were taken to see Bay of Bones, then taken to the coffee in a little village and given tour of the said village. Then we continued to st. Naum where we had 2 hours free time to see a monestary and the guide explaine to us the history related to it. I recommend to take a boat tour od the springs there. After that we were taken to the lunch at st. Znaum where the cook prepared delicious barbacue for us and we were given 2 hours to swim on the beach that has the clearest water I ever saw. After that we were taken to the place from which it is possible to jump from the cllif in the lake (if u want of course).The boat had speakers with great music and we had a lot of fun.
The tour price is 36€ per person and includes beverages, lunch and coffee at the villlage.
I think this is the best and incredibely affordable whole-day tour!! We loved it! I highly recommend it to everyone. As i understood, the agancy is family owned and they really do their best so their guests have great time. Plus at the agency headquaters they have amazing german shephard Max who loves cuddles and greats everyone.

Our guide, Daniel, picked us up from our hotel and gave us a lot of information along the way to Prishtina, Kosovo’s capital. We had an interesting walk around Prishtina, visited some of the Ottoman mosques, the National museum, medieval monastery in Gracanica, Gadime cave. We highly recommend this trip and this guide.
I rekommend very much this company , they are full profesional.

As a group of six, we arranged a private tour of the Balkans in June 2024 with Daniel Medaroski and had a fantastic time. We began in Albania and swung through North Macedonia, Kosovo, and Montenegro. Daniel was a marvelous, knowledgeable, adaptable, reliable, and friendly guide. The tour he assembled and the sights and stops met all our goals completely. I can't praise him enough for the wonderful job he did. And based on that, if we travel to that area again, we'll be sure to ask for him directly.

Outstanding Experience and Service. Daniel and his colleagues helped plan an exciting and fun adventure in Ohrid. They were extremely patient and clearly enjoy their work. Daniel shared his love for Ohrid and impressive knowledge with a an all-day tour and found us an outstanding hotel very close to the center of town. All of his recommendations were perfect. He also recommended a colleague to drive us to Thessaloniki, which was extremely helpful due to the Covid issues.
I can't wait to return and when I begin planning, I will contact Experience Balkan immediately.

We did not want to return without seeing this charming town, which is on the UNESCO world cultural heritage list. Lake Ohrid is a precious lake that hosts more than 200 fish species. We are very lucky to have chosen this tour. Communicating with the agency was very fast and easy. Local guide was so knowledgable and friendly. If u do not have enough time to stay here. I highly recommend this tour

MTI Travels met my expectations and beyond which made this 2 day tour worthwhile. Every detail was carved out to my interest. The food was spectacular.. and they introduced me to the delicacies of the region like the Koran fish which can be bought only in this region. Bledar Shapplo personally takes his clients to these places so expect quality treatment.

This was my first trip to Macedonia and Kosovo, and I couldn't have hoped for a better company to handle all of my travel needs while over there! Since these are unusual Covid19 times, and things change on a daily basis with visas and such, Daniel kept me informed every day with updates directly from the Balkan countries. He was extremely professional, and super fast at responding via Whatsapp.
Once we reached Skopje, Daniel, Alexander, and Kristina met us at our hotel. We chatted for a bit, and then they took us around Skopje for an amazing little city tour and a nice dinner. That team truly cares for each customer they have, and will customize any trips you might have in mind. They have been in the business a long time, and made us feel so comfortable the entire time.
We then took a one day trip from Skopje to Prishtina, and this was definitely the highlight of our time there. Our guide Pete (Petrit) was an absolute legend! This guy was so personable, professional, and passionate about his beautiful country that is Kosovo! We were entertained and educated on the lifestyle of these amazing people, their culture, and the outstanding food they have. Do not let people steer you away from visiting this unique and gorgeous country.
But all of this wouldn't have been possible wouldn't have been for this amazing team! Two thumbs way up to Daniel, Alexander, Kristina, and Petrit, for welcoming us with open arms, and treating us like family. I wouldn't travel with any other company on my visit to the Balkan countries!

The local guide was very professional and knowledgeable, and also a safe and excellent driver. He took us to Gadime cave, than to Gracanica monastery. We then drove to Pristina and learnt a lot about this country. I highly recommend this trip - thank you.
