Free tour of old town, wild beaches lake dip, ancient churches and the fortress tour.
Hello my name’s Daniel.
I’m passionate about sharing the beauties of Ohrid with other people.
My favorite parts are always the beaches and the mountains around, but the old town itself is the first thing a short term visitor should visit since it’s easily accessible by foot and possible to cover in a day.
The tour:
- Starts- at the St Clement of Ohrid city square near the harbor.
- We go on- to visit the city beach Saraiste and the House of Robevci, walk through the old town to the ancient church on the rock-St John- Kaneo.
- Then- we visit the wild beach Labino.
- Later- we go to the tsar Samuil fortress and the ancient Roman theatre.
- And we finish- with a walk towards the turkish bazaar through the old town, visiting few major churches on the way there, including Church of the Virgin Mary Peribleptos, the Clock Tower, and finish at the old Chinar tree meeting spot.
I’d be happy to meet you and show you around this magical lake paradise.

Ohrid cooking classes
You'll learn new cooking techniques that can easily be repeated at home. I was fortunate enough to grow up among the best cooks, my grandmother and my mother. Let the food be our language. I will introduce you how the ingredients can be made at home. In the past times people didn't have many ingredients and used their skills to make the best possible meal. The most important thing in Macedonian cuisine is that the dishes are made from only a few ingredients and you must use your imagination to make the testiest dish from the available products.
Vegetarians are welcomed.
Please let me know in advance if you have any dietary restrictions.
