Private Day Tour of Ohrid, North Macedonia from Tirana & Durres
Overview
According to UNESCO, Ohrid is one of the oldest human settlements in Europe, located on the shores of Lake Ohrid, one of the world’s oldest and deepest lakes. For centuries, the town has been a crossroads of cultures, traditions, and historical influences, shaped by many civilizations.
Known as the “Jerusalem of the Balkans,” Ohrid played a key role in the spread of Slavic Orthodoxy. At its peak, it was home to 365 churches—one for each day of the year—many of which date back to the 11th century and remain important architectural and spiritual landmarks.
This private tour also includes a visit to a nearby traditional mountain village at the foot of the Jablanica Mountains. With cobblestone paths, fresh springs, and authentic rural life, it offers a peaceful escape and a glimpse into North Macedonia’s cultural heritage, all at your own pace with a dedicated guide.
